Together Looks Good.
A strong case for the matching set.
We talk a lot about the pieces that do the heavy lifting. The ones you reach for without thinking, that somehow always look right, and that your kid will wear on actual repeat without you having to beg.
Sets are that. But make it two pieces.
There's something about a well-made set that just takes the pressure off. The top and bottom are already speaking the same language — same family, same season, same vibe. You're not building an outfit from scratch. You're just getting dressed, and it happens to look really good.
This season we have some truly great options, and we've been having all kinds of fun with them. Here's what's been living at the top of the pile.
We Are Kids — Summer Green Stripes
The cotton terry styles from We Are Kids are exactly what you want for summer. Soft, easy, and relaxed in all the right ways. Designed for vacation, pool days, and warm-weather mornings where you just want to get out the door and go. They travel beautifully, wear beautifully, and honestly — they photograph beautifully too. A total yes from us.
Bobo Choses — Farm Adventure
If you're looking for something with a little more of a story to it, the Farm Adventure family from Bobo Choses is it. Woven fabrics and easy silhouettes that feel a step up from everyday without losing any of the comfort. The kind of set that works just as well for a birthday lunch as it does for a Saturday at the farmers market. We love a piece that can do both.
Tiny Cottons — Tiny Roses
Ribbed cotton, a micro floral print, and the kind of mix-and-match potential that makes a parent very, very happy. Wear it as a set, pull the pieces apart and work them into other outfits, layer the top into fall. The versatility here is real, and we love it for that.
Bobo Choses — Juicy Tomatoes
Grounded in a calming blue and built for easy breezy summer days — the Juicy Tomatoes family from Bobo Choses has something for everyone, baby included. Bold and fun without trying too hard. These are the pieces that end up in every other photo from the summer, and we completely understand why. Wear them together, or mix and match — there is no wrong answer here.
Tiny Cottons — Emerald Stripes
Crisp, classic, and cut in the relaxed silhouettes we always come back to. The linen emerald stripes styles from Tiny Cottons bring a clean, easy energy that feels polished without any extra effort required. A warm weather staple hands down.
Emile et Ida — Guariguette
Strawberry fields forever? Yes please. This sweet terry capsule from the always lovely Emile et Ida is one we are loving this season. Designed in the quick-drying cotton terry we love, each adorably delicious piece here is as cute as it is comfortable. Perfect for poolside, picnics, and every other adventure on your summer to-do list.
Hello Simone — Callis Floral
Say hello to the pretty callis floral print family from our dear friends at Hello Simone. Designed in the soft cotton we love from the brand, these precious pieces easily go from day to night. Featuring feminine contrast stitching and understated ruffle details, we love this floral print moment for baby & kid alike.
The Campamento — Falling Stars
The Falling Stars family of styles from The Campamento is everything the girls (and dare I say, us parents?) want. Perhaps considered everyday basics with a soft, completely comfortable ribbed construction, the cheerful print is what gets us. Pink, playful, and never a bad idea.
Bobo Choses — Color Herbalist
One of Bobo Choses' iconic prints this season, the Color Herbalist family of styles is joyful and just really, really fun. For the girls we have flowy, summer-ready separates in addition to the softest 2-piece swim set. For our tiniest pals, we love the unisex dungaree — an easy pairing with any of the graphic tees from this season's colorful collection.
A good set earns its place in the rotation fast and stays there. Stock up on a few this season — you'll be really glad you did.
A Few Things We Get Asked About Sets
Why are matching sets so good for kids right now?
Because they solve the actual problem. Getting kids dressed is one of those small daily tasks that can quietly eat your morning — and a well-made set just removes the friction. The pieces are already designed to go together, so there's no guessing, no mismatched pulls from the drawer, no negotiations. You just get dressed. And it looks really good.
Can you mix and match pieces from a kids' set with other things in their wardrobe?
Absolutely — and honestly, that's one of the things we love most about the sets we carry. The Tiny Roses ribbed styles from Tiny Cottons are a great example: the top layers beautifully into fall with denim or over a long sleeve, and the bottom works just as well with a simple tee. A good set gives you two pieces that work together and independently. That's a lot of outfit real estate from one purchase.
What fabrics are best for kids' sets in summer?
For warm weather, you really want to be in cotton or linen. Both breathe well, wash well, and hold up to the kind of days kids have. The terry styles from We Are Kids are especially great for summer — soft, relaxed, and made for pool days and travel. The linen Emerald Stripes from Tiny Cottons are another favorite for the heat. Light, crisp, and comfortable all day.
Are these sets good for travel and vacation packing?
They're genuinely some of the best things to pack. Two pieces, one decision, endlessly wearable. The We Are Kids pool and terry styles were practically made for a suitcase — they take up almost no space and look great right out of the bag. The Bobo Choses families pack just as beautifully and go from beach to dinner without missing a beat.
What age ranges do these kids' sets come in?
Our sets run from baby through older kids, depending on the family. The Juicy Tomatoes collection from Bobo Choses has pieces for the whole family including baby, and the Color Herbalist family includes a matching dungaree for the littlest ones.
