The rise of the designer toddler

ARGH STAB THEM ALL IN THE HEAD!

I mean, seriously. There's a sort of twisted logic to buying full size designer stuff, but kids grow so fast they'll be through it in 6months regardless of what you buy. $Suitable_Deity bless Sue Lee!

I spend more on dressing my toddlers than I do myself... but then some of my t-shirts are over a decade old ;)

I don't buy heat tho' ;)

Surely that's only to be expected - After all, they're going to get through clothes much quicker than you!

I just have a general antipathy towards anything designer labelly. And I think I've still got some t-shirts from about 1993 too ;o)

I have shirts which are older than I am :)

they don't make shirts like they did in the late 80's! ;) wearing one today!

Poppy of Yarm is one designer I do use - items sniped 2nd hand off ebay! ;) The fabric is really good quality, most dresses only worn once (ie were kept for best by previous) - and have fab pictures (including poppies - my fave flowers!)
B and roo have a collection of these to grow into, up to about age 5! Get 'em while they're cheap!
None I like on ebay at mo tho' :( rah!
