I like Carter's they have some super cute stuff. Children's Place is good too---I do not like Gerber, we only have a few things from them but their onsies run super small!! Same thing with their jammies. We got s few pair for Christmas as presents and they don't even fit already--they were all 6 M!! I am just putting the 3M stuff away on all the other brands and moving him into 3-6 mos.

Some you just don't like? why? I agree with the Gerber, they run small and are really thin and cheap feeling.

I really like Carter's, Old Navy & GAP. The clothes are cute and good quality. I'm all about handing the clOthes down to the next kid and these really seem to stand up against time and wear & tear.
I don't like Gerber or Garanimals. Gerber runs way too small and their clothes are super thin. Garanimals run short and wide and just don't fit my kids well at all.
Collin is wearing 6m clothes now.

Got a favorite clothing brand... why? I like GAP, Amy Coe (at Babies R Us), and Children's Place. I like the quality and styling of GAP and Children's Place. I like the one-pieces from Amy Coe. They are fun and not too "baby" (I am not one for pastel colors or sports themed). I like them all because they have some great sales too. I don't pay anything close to retail for children's clothes.
Some you just don't like? why? I agree with disliking Gerber. They are super-small, cheap, and don't wash nicely. I also find Circo at Target to be "one-shot-wonder" clothes. The ones we had hand-me-down from Liam just don't look as nice or fit as well now that they have been through one child. And I think Carters is nice for the softness and sizing on clothes. But I get super-sick of their themes that just seem to repeat and be really "sports/animals" in nature. I do love the colors of their latest line though.
What size is your LO wearing now? In most brands he is a 12 month. Sometimes a little bigger or smaller, depending.

I don't know if I have a favorite clothing. I like to dress Kynslee in actual outfits and am always looking for cute clothing and not just onesies and pants. Carters and Koala kids have cute clothing and usually reasonably priced. I'm also one to never pay full price for kids clothes. I get a lot of clothes at yard sales and then just clean them really good.
I also don't care for gerber - runs small and cheapy.
Kynslee is still in Newborn  The pants are running a little short but if I put her in 0-3 pants I have to pin them so they will stay up-lol!!

Got a favorite clothing brand... why? Any of the brands that Macy's sells. They have thee CUTEST stuff!
Some you just don't like? why? Not really. I like anything that is super cute, well made, and warm.
What size is your LO wearing now? I just moved him up to 3-6 months, but 3-6 is still big on him. He's in between 0-3 & 3-6.

I don't really have a favorite, but I agree that Gerber is just not very good quality. We actually haven't had to buy any except special occasion dresses/ outfits because Maddie got so much stuff as presents from baby showers and Christmas.
Right now she is wearing newborn and 0-3 in most stuff although the newborn pants are waaaaay to short on her (they look like capris  ) and most of her sleepers in 0-3 are getting too short for her.

Brady's in a lot of 6-9 month stuff. I like Carter's because they're thick and soft, but the length of the arms is a little short for him. And now that he's in daycare, I don't like how common the Carter's stuff is... it's just weird to drop off your baby and see 3 other kids in what you had thought of as "your" son's clothes.
Children's Place stuff is a good quality but I will only buy it when it's on sale plus I have a coupon. Otherwise, it can get pretty ridiculous. I think they size their stuff really small too.
Not a huge fan of Circo by Target. Some onesies have been okay, but others have been really thin and scratchy. And their pants are tight around the tummy.
Wal-Mart's Faded Glory brand has some really soft short sleeved onesies that are in cute patterns. I've used them for layering under t-shirts.

We are in 9-12 months
I love Gymboree and Childrens Place
I use to like Carters and have a lot of their stuff but they seem to make clothes for "skinny" babies and after one wash/dry they get even tighter, my chubbster doesn't fit well into them.

I like Carter's, Old Navy, GAP, & Kohl's. They seem to have a really cute selection for boys things, which you can't really find everywhere. Most things we used for Xander, we're using for Archer..and some of those were hand-me-downs for Xander. These brands seem to have really lasted. That in addition to a couple things we've gotten from Calvin Klein & Eddie Bauer but I only have a couple things in those brands so I wouldn't say they're some of my favorites.
I agree with Gerber being the worst. I realized I wouldn't like them when Xander was 2 months old & fitting in size 12 month onesies through them & newborn/0-3s from everyone else. They are tiny..which makes choosing clothes hard. And they are always the exact same patterns. I didn't buy any Gerber things for Archer aside from mittens/hats. I think some of the sleepers we had left from Xander might be Gerber & they fit fine/lasted..but the onesies are awful.
Archer is wearing 3-6 & 6-9 clothes right now. Depends on what it is.
