Shopping for summer baby clothes is hard—as in it’s hard not to buy everything because tiny dresses, rompers, and overalls are so darn cute. Luckily, Zara and H&M offer some of the cutest budget-friendly kids fashion options. We rounded up some of our favorite items for babies, toddlers, and kids from their summer collections.

At least half of these items I would want in my size—like the soft, gauzy rompers, jersey dresses, and trendy florals. Plus, both H&M Kids and Zara Kids nail the ever-elusive cute clothes for little boys. Enjoy this list of the cutest summer clothes from Zara and H&M—and check out our styling ideas, too! 

 

Onesies, Overalls & Matching Sets

Much like jumpsuits for busy mamas, putting your kid in a one-piece outfit or matching set often proves to be easier and more convenient. These adorable onesies, overalls, and sets with sweet and summery prints are simply too cute to pass up.

Dresses, Jumpsuits & Rompers

There’s not much that’s cuter than a baby or toddler in a tiny dress or romper. Plus, in the same way we love dresses as an easy one-step way to feel put together, these outfits are also super easy for summer play days or special occasions.
