What in the world is a layette you ask? It’s all of the essential pieces that make up your newborn’s wardrobe. Read on to discover exactly what and how much you need, plus get the scoop on some of the cutest baby basics around.

3 Baby Gowns

Whether you have a boy or a girl, baby gowns are a must-have for middle-of-the-night diaper changes in the first few weeks and we love these pretty-patterned ones from Skip Hop. Trust us, when you're waking up every couple of hours, you'll be thankful not to have to fumble with a bunch of snaps. Just pull the elastic bottom of the gown up, change and move on to rocking your little one to sleep.

Available at skiphop.com, $16.
