My 3 year old daughter is super fussy with her clothing

My eldest niece was super fussy when she was younger. Actually, she still is! She doesn't like tops that are fussy. She only wears screen-printed tees. It is easier now that she is old enough to pick out her own stuff at the store. When she was a toddler, people would buy her the cutest tops with lace, buttons, snaps, zippers, etc. and she would refuse to wear them. The family learned quickly just to give my sister gift cards for my niece. I don't know if I would have been as calm as my sister. I may have tried to force the little "darling" to wear what I want her to wear!

I think that is normal for that age. I would not worry about it, but maybe give her a choice of either that or another outfit. She is just starting to get her fashion sense. Just make sure she does not a whole lot to choose from.

Wow that's really young to be fussy about clothing my friend! Trouble is when money is tight it is really hard to make them understand that they cannot get endless choice of what they will wear and what they won't, besides at that age they grow quickly too, so they grow out of clothes just as fast! And she needs to know that mummy cannot buy too many clothes for her.

At 3 years old I didn't give my kids the option of what clothes to wear. I took it out of the closet and put it on them. I guess kids today are a lot different than they were then. My kids never gave me a problem.

I remember My Brother's eldest daughter as a little one having a thing about not wanting to wear clothes that she felt were too confining for her..even instances of them not taking the tags off items for her beforehand,in case She'd refuse to wear it and they'd have to return it She's a teen now,and grew out of that phase,thankfully

Oh, there's a young fashionista in the making :D. I don't think that's a big problem if a girl has her opinion about clothing and won't wear anything... look at it from the brighter side: she's probably not going to be a doormat who would be too shy and afraid to tell her piece of mind to people when needed. If I had a child like this... well, first of all, I would buy stuff from the thrift store (I mean, good condition ones), because they are cheap, and if we need something other, it's not going to make me go bankrupt :D. Or I would try to learn to tailor clothes, or just to decorate plainer ones with stuff she likes.

Only 3 years old and yet she is so aware of what she must wear? Your kid must be a fashionista in progress! Well, I had not difficulties with any of my sons at that age. I just noticed, though, my third son would rather use pants and polo shirts all the time when he gets out of the house regardless if he would just be picking me up from work or he would just be playing at his grandparents' home.
