Burt’s Bees Baby Girls’ Organic Set: Super Soft, But Sizing Leaves You Guessing

Alright, let’s talk baby clothes: soft matters, weird fits don’t. That’s where this Burt’s Bees Baby Girls’ Long Sleeve Top and Pant Set steps in, or maybe—stumbles in a bit.

The fabric is genuinely fantastic—cozy, all-organic cotton that manages to survive endless laundry cycles without becoming sandpaper. You can run your hand over it and just know it’ll be gentle on sensitive skin. I’d call it very “Grandma would approve” vibes. This is the kind of material you pick if you’re avoiding all the scratchy, plasticky nonsense that’s all too common in the baby aisle.

Now, the elephant in the room: these fit issues. Whoever designed these sizes must’ve been playing darts in the dark. The top has this oversized, “I borrowed my big brother’s shirt” feel while the pants, at times, seem regular-sized or even a tad snug. The pieces look like they belong to different sets. This isn’t a “room to grow” kind of thing—it’s more “how is this supposed to work?” Unless you’re cool with rolling sleeves and revisiting the pants in a growth spurt or two, you might want to look somewhere else.

Eco-friendly points? Absolutely—Burt’s Bees walks the talk with quality organic cotton, decent production ethics, and a real effort to ditch the chemical overload. If supporting better farming and cleaner clothes matters to you (and it should), you’re picking a company with values pretty aligned with those.

But here’s the kicker: No matter how green or lovely the fabric is, fit does matter—especially if you’re already running on caffeine and little sleep. There’s nothing cute about wrangling your kid into mismatched proportions at 7 AM.

TL;DR:

• Fabric is honestly great. Soft, safe, and actually lasts.
• The fit is all over the place—think circus tent top and regular or smallish bottoms.
• Definitely scores high on sustainability, with all the right certifications.
• Unless you love unpredictable sizing, you’ll probably grumble at least once while getting your kid dressed.

Would I recommend this set? Only if you’re chill about rolling sleeves and improvising. If you want something that fits right out of the bag, keep looking. There are better-fitting organic options out there, even if they aren’t quite as soft—or as Instagram-ready.
