{For the Boys} | Portrait Wardrobe Guide | Smithfield VA Photographer

For a while there, I was drawing my inspiration from the budding trees and warmer temperatures.  Then it snowed. And now it's 40 degrees.  So, feeling a little short in the inspiration department, I put it in the hands of my Facebook readers.

One suggestion was to talk about how to dress the boys!  Personally, I have 3 girls and 1 boy and trying to find some cool duds (I know I sound old saying that, but I'm good with it if you are) that he would actually wear proved to be a fight. Every time!

I put together a post focusing on boys this week.  Some of the looks are a bit preppy, some a little more modern, but you can mix and match, use layers, and throw in some old favorites to make the boys actually want to get dressed for photos!

And by the way, it is totally okay  to wear a pair of Chuck Taylors and a tie in the same outfit!

Love what you see?  Here's where to find it:

Older boys:
Fedora and sweater vest: Sears
Plaid shirt and khakis: Gap
Argyle outfit: Old Navy
Chuck Taylors: JC Penney
Topsiders: Sperry Topsider

Toddler boys:
Plaid shirt and jeans: Gymboree and Children's Place
Argyle outfit: Gymboree
Blue outfit: Children's Place
