My PFB is starting reception in Sept and I need to buy her first ever school uniform. I never done this before and I'm getting confused already.
Can you uniform pros help me with any of my questions:
Where's best to buy uniform from?
Summer dresses - do I bother with these?
Some dresses have zips and some have buttons - which is best?
Some dresses are 100% cotton and some are polyester or viscose - which is best?
Skirts or trousers?
Do I bother getting the polo shirts with school logo or not?
Jumpers or cardigans?
Where's best to buy school shoes?
Tights or socks?
What sort of coat?
Labelling recommendations?
Additional info:
My DD is good at getting herself dressed, but a very messy eater. On nursery days she comes home with stained clothes and I can always tell what she had for lunch.
I hate ironing, sewing, and am all for an easy life.
