A Guide To Scandi Girl Style: Minimalist Chic Kids Wardrobe Essentials

Do you love Scandinavian vibes and want to dress your kids in this effortlessly chic minimalist style? Danish-inspired wardrobes are timeless and actually quite simple to build for girls of all ages. Start with the color palette – look for pieces in shades of beige, brown, navy, and gray, along with patterns like pastel stripes and muted prints. The key to this style is mixing lots of loose layers made from ultra-soft comfortable fabrics like cotton and linen, all of which can be worn together to create a multitude of kids’ outfits for every occasion. Here are the top Scandinavian style wardrobe essentials that kids can easily add to their daily outfits.

 
  1. oversized sweaters

Oversized sweaters are oh-so-comfy when styled with lots of loose layers. Wear on top of a simple tee and baggy pants for an easy and practical fall fit.  We love adding a suede shoe like a Birkenstock or Ugg slipper for a true Scandi girl vibe but, of course, sneakers are always a good match too.

2. baggy pants

Baggy pants are a necessity in any Scandi girl’s closet, and they are the perfect wardrobe essential for long days in the classroom or hanging out with friends. These pants work both on the longer side folded up or cropped, making them a practical and stylish choice as they will grow with your girl. Style your kids in a patterned baggy pant paired with a basic top, or plain pants paired with stripes on top.

3. stripes

Stripes and soft muted patterns are very common in Scandi style and can be found on everything from shirts, dresses, pants, and even outerwear. Stripes mix well with solids for a chic and polished look. Linen or cotton striped pants are perfect to keep your kids comfortable but also put-together, styled with pastel knits and sneakers for a day at school or at the park.

4. quilted jackets

Quilted jackets are soft and cozy, and act as the perfect layer piece for a girl’s fall wardrobe. Look for neutral tones and patterns, as well as fleece and faux fur-lined jackets for extra warmth. Style with baggy cotton pants or jeans for an easy Scandi look.
