Socks. If your baby is anything like mine, he/she will love pulling off his/her socks. Most of them don't stay on, and I've tried using the socks'adds-on , those elastics which you put on the socks so they stay on. Margaux quickly figured out how to remove those as well (just like she figured out how to remove the safety plugs cover two days after we had baby-proofed the house). There's another problem: you don't want to use anything other than wool booties or socks as the baby's feet are still growing and should not be put in tougher fabrics or anything which could cramp their feet.
My good find: Trumpette socks.
1) They stay on.
2) They are made of 73% cotton (you don't want any other fabric than wool or cotton as research shows the baby's skin is then more prone to developing eczema etc. if using fabrics such as polyester. Also allows their skin to breath better.)
3) They look like shoes so you have a two-in-one and can go straight from home to out and about without changing.
4) They are simply ridiculously cute
The original models were the Mary Jane for the girls and the Johnny (sneakers) for the boys, both models I absolutely love for their classic look. The choice is yours as they have many, each cuter than the other and it's easy to quickly collect those little boxes, which also make great gifts as they are sold in a pretty packaging.
They come in baby size 0-12 months and toddler size 12-24 months.
Here are two of my favorites:
