Summer
Characteristics of Summer Weather
Summer in West Hartford is typically hot and humid, requiring lighter and cooler clothing options.
Tips for Dressing Babies in Summer
-
Light and Airy Clothing: Dress your baby in lightweight and breathable fabrics to keep them cool. Look for sleeveless or short-sleeved options.
-
Sun Protection: Ensure your baby is protected from the sun with hats, sunglasses, and baby-safe sunscreen.
-
Swimwear and Water Play: Summer is perfect for water play. Choose swimwear that provides UV protection and is easy to put on and take off.
Retro Skirted Bodysuit: We love this little retro vibes summer onesie! Fit-wise, it's everything you love about a little bamboo onesie, with an added piece of flare. The skirt portion even has a little ruffle look where it's attached to the bodysuit. It has snaps on the back as well as along the bottom for easy on and off and diaper changes. This brand overall runs fairly small, so going up a size here can't hurt. Made of 95% viscose from bamboo and 5% spandex, this bodysuit is both stylish and comfortable for hot summer days.
Pima Cotton Slouchy Onesie: What is pima cotton, you ask? To make a very long explanation short, pima cotton is one of the highest quality cottons out there, making it a prime choice to snuggle your kids in. When it comes to this slouchy onesie, the biggest debate is going to be which print to grab! Not only is it buttery soft for your baby's skin, but it's banded along the thighs to create a little bubble effect and has snaps at the very bottom. The back has a little keyhole detail for easy on and off. Made from 100% organic pima cotton, this onesie is as luxurious as it is practical.
Summer is all about keeping cool and having fun. At Lil Hope, we offer a wide variety of summer essentials that keep your baby comfortable and stylish.

Fall brings cooler temperatures and colorful foliage. It’s a season of transition from the heat of summer to the chill of winter.
Tips for Dressing Babies in Fall

Warm Accessories: Include hats, mittens, and booties to keep your baby warm as temperatures drop.
Stripe Pullover and Pants Set: Things coming together as a set really just makes everyone's lives easier! This 2-piece set comes with a crewneck sweater that features functioning buttons on both sides of the collar for easy on and off and a pair of elastic waist pants.

Aynor Ribbed Onesie: Thick and cozy, this little onesie is a great piece to have in the dresser. While it's from a line that primarily cuts boy pieces, we think it's absolutely gender neutral!
