clothing brands for the long and lean baby?

help!!

my daughter is so long and lean that it's getting damn near impossible to find clothes that fit her properly. she weighs about 18.5lbs and is close to 32" tall! what that means is that anything that is long enough in length on her is falling off her waist, and anything that fits her waist looks like she is waiting for the flood. you'd think it would be easy since we're in the summer months, but we live in san francisco, so it's not summer until mid to late september!

the only brand that seems to work for her that i've encountered is n-kids, which is a nordstrom brand so it's very very pricey. i do get lucky and find some of their stuff at nordstrom rack every now and then, but i totally can't afford to buy it from nordies directly.

any ideas for me?

  • we have a lot of babystyle clothes from gramma, and they fit eamon well, tho despite his slim figure, he's got a big old cloth diaper butt, so who can say. at 14 1/2 mo. he's still wearing some 6-12 mo clothes. on the other hand he's already wearing some 24 mo stuff too (not babystle)
