Easter Outfits . . . HELP!

I am in a predicament that I have never had to cross before. I am trying to pick out matching Easter outfits for the kids and I've never had to match boy clothes to the girls' clothes. I have found 3 outfits at gymboree that fit all three personalities but I am not in love with them.


Here are the problems I face:

1. Hannah doesn't like dresses or skirts, so she must have capris that match the other two.
2. Boys Easter clothes are generally, navy, blue, green and white.
3. I like the girls in bright, girly colors.
4. We are on a BUDGET!


So, here is what I've found so far.

At gymboree they have a capri set, a girly dress and a boy's seersucker shortall set that all semi-matches. I like the overall set for Carter but I think the capri outfit for Hannah stands out too much because the shirt has so many colors that Emma and Carter's outfits wouldn't have. What do you think? The second problem with this set is that it is costly. I really don't want to spend this much.


For the girls, I found this cute dress at Childrens Place with some cute capris for Hannah but I'm not in love with the capri set. I think the matching jacket is a bit casual. And, I don't know what to pair Carter with, if the girls are in such bold colors. Pottery Barn Kids has some cute baby clothes for him, but again...pricey. They have some solid overalls that might match okay. If I got the pale blue that is similar to the blue in Emma's dress. What do you think of these? I personally like the colors better for the girls than the navy seersucker.




If you have seen anything cuter online that would match all three, please let me know. I would like to get their outfits soon so I can get pictures made.

i love the 2nd set! perfect for Hannah definitely. and Emma would be sooo cute too! maybe something with a bit more color in it for Carter..so he'd match the girls better. idk im so terrible at this.

they could be in brown paper bags and all still look completely adorable!!

Hannah sounds just like Jenna - capris - rarely does she wear dresses or skirts. I'm no help with it comes to coordinating everything! Sorry!
