Where do you buy clothes for your 12 year old daughter?

[Bigkingdom]

All i can think of is Next but my daughter doesn’t really like the tops.

Newlook but almost every t-shirt or hoody is cropped. My daughter and i aren’t fans of crop tops.

h&m but the quality isn’t always great.

River Island but they are expensive.

I find it hard to get out due to being unwell so ideally i need to be able to order things.

Matalan, M and S, Zara, Peacocks, all of the major super markets, JD Sports

My 12 year old DD loves Depop, great bargains!

River island
Primark
H and m
Occasionally Asda and peacocks
Jd sports

H&m ,but mainly primark , she is tall so supermarkets no good now, can you do a primark trip every few months ?
I think the quality has improved over time and i always feel i get good value for money .

My DD likes New Look for trousers and jackets, but yes, every top, hoodie, jumper, seems to be cropped.

Peacocks is good I think, but if you're ordering online, they take forever to deliver, so beware!

Topshop? They start at a size 4 I think, they do decent stuff, although I tend to get it in the sale.

How about Fat Face or even just the John Lewis website instead of seperate shops, that might be better, then you will get a selection of stuff, hopefully some will be reduced.

(Im a tight wad) I bought DDs winter coat in July from White Stuff for £12.

Its a beaut and was £55.

There is quite a bit on here,

and I also just thought of Gap?

Fat Face, but wait for the online sales

Gap is good for leggings and T-shirt’s.

We used to buy quite a bit from Abercrombie and Fitch kids www.abercrombie.com/shop/uk/kids/girls-tops?filtered=true&rows=240&sort=pricelow2high&start=0&facet=ads_f43002_ntk_cs:(%2213%2F14%22) The sale stuff can be really good value and even at full price £12 for a t shirt isn't too bad as they are good quality and we have passed on all of DD's after she outgrew it.

FatFace have 100% cotton tops, not cropped. H&M (usually buy the boys if the colours are ok, because the cotton is thicker and they last better).
Gap sometimes, gone off a bit recently. Zara will often have reasonable cotton basics, but be aware sizing is small compared with UK. Gap, Fatface and H&M are all very prompt with delivery, I've only ever bought Zara in store, so don't know about theirs, sorry.

Yumi- great sales too

H and M. Primark, it's a really hard age to buy for because a lot is pitched at older girls but I stuck with h and m at that age x

H&M
Zara
New Look
Hype
Hollister

Mine aren't there yet, but remembering back, at 12 don't you just give them a budget and they choose?

H&M, gap and mostly Linden (online, great for taller kids).

lindex, not linden

Yes I assumed that’s what op meant? I wouldn’t buy clothes for dd unless she’d specified them but we look together on websites. Maybe the op needed inspiration!

Lots of the places already mentioned on this thread but also Debenhams

Vertbaudet has lovely things that are a bit more classic - fewer cropped/slogan/sequinned items

I let DD look for clothes online and I will do the final purchasing.

She often chooses from Next, H&M, New Look or George. She is in adult sizes and also don't like cropped things thankfully

Abercrombie and Fitch kids and gap/old navy.

I get some things from the Very website-there's usually a good choice.

Dd 13 likes Hollister and Jack Wills otherwise H&M.

It also depends on how big she is. Some 12 year olds still fit in child sizes whereas others need adult clothes.
