What to wear - weddings and christenings

In case you've failed to notice, we are well and truly into Wedding Season, and while finding something suitable for yourself to wear can be a massive headache, hopefully - with a little help from Baby Stylist - finding something both cute and practical for your little one will be that bit easier.

First up, is something for the boys. I love this little suit from www.henrykaye.co.uk, available from six months, up to 24 months. The trousers and waistcoat are cotton and the shirt is linen so it's ideal for warmer summer days - although, obviously it's hard to predict the wonderful British weather too far ahead. The detail on this is what makes it so gorgeous - it even has a little faux fly placket on the trousers! The only complaint I have is that it's only available in navy - ecru would be super cute too.


If you're looking for something your tot will only wear once or twice, then don't forget the budget high street brands. F&F at Tesco have this lovely beige linen suit. If you can't find it at your local supermarket, or can't get there for whatever reason, check out www.clothesattesco.co.uk. Prices are from 25 GBP, perfect if you don't want to splash out on something that won't be worn too often. One word of advice, avoid pinstripe unless you want your little prince looking like a mini estate agent.


Once again, I can't recommend www.peakprincess.co.uk enough, and their range of ties don't fail to disappoint. There is an option to order bespoke ties for babies and toddlers, but here is an example of a typical boys' tie. If you order online fast, you can take advantage of the half price introductory offer on ties. They are currently available for 24.99 GBP.




And now something for the girls. I'm really loving floral print sundresses and think they can be worn out and about, as well as for special occasions, which means spending a bit more than you usually would on an outfit isn't so bad. I think rose prints are lovely for weddings because of the romantic connotations. This rose party dress from Monsoon is one of my favourite finds.


 
I also adore this dress and knicker set from Jojo Maman Bebe, there's something too cute for words about the little knickers that go over nappies.





Finish up with a little wrap cardigan and your little lady is ready to rock.

lots of love
