Seasonal Baby Clothing Guide — Cozy Little Closet

Spring — the tricky in-between

Spring can swing from warm to chilly in hours. Dress in layers and choose breathable fabrics.

Fabric picks

• Light cotton layers
• Muslin swaddles for quick cover
• Thin knit cardigans

Spring checklist

1. 3 bodysuits
2. 1 light jacket
3. 2 hats
4. 3 pairs of socks

Summer — keep it airy

Less is more. Avoid heavy layers and choose fabrics that dry quickly.

Sun safety

Use a wide-brim hat, seek shade, and consider a UV-protective cover for long sun exposure.

Summer must-haves

• Organic cotton bodysuits
• Lightweight muslin blanket
• Sun hat + breathable stroller cover

Autumn — layering season

Think sandwich layers: thin base, warm middle, windproof outer.

Outfit ideas

• Long-sleeve bodysuit + sweater + joggers
• Transitional jacket + socks

Winter — warmth and safety

Keep babies warm but avoid overheating. Use sleep sacks for night and insulated outerwear for outings.

Layering strategy

1. Base: cotton or bamboo bodysuit
2. Mid: fleece or wool blend
3. Outer: insulated jacket or bunting

note: avoid heavy blankets in the crib — prefer sleep sacks rated for the temperature.

Travel & outings

Pack smart: spare outfit, weather-appropriate outer, and easy-to-access changing items.
