7y/o wants a onesie in July

I'm in a pickle. Dd has her birthday soon and wants a new onesie and dressing gown and slippers. I have advised her that these things are difficult to get in the middle of summer (I could buy one from Amazon but actually want a good quality set that will last her). Yet still, all she wants is warm snuggly winter clothes... in July.
Specifically they must all co-ordinate.

I've looked at next, matalan, m&s, John Lewis, Tu and George. Any suggestions of where to try next will be welcome!

You never know sometimes new stuff is going in ebay

There seems to be an expectation nowadays that children can say what they want for a present and parents will provide it. I always wanted my presents to be a surprise. (Still do!).

M&M direct have onesies and H&M have dressing gowns. Just checked for you Smile

Ooh just seen John Lewis have both as well. Some are in the sale.

@Peabody25 thank you, unfortunately there is nothing co-ordinating, slippers/dressing gown/onesie that match.
She rarely asks for new clothes, she gets excited when the cousin Box comes down from the attic every time she has grown, so I'd love to make this a reality.
It may be though that she gets a token gift and an iou for later on in the year

Have you looked on slumberhut.co.uk?
I don't know if there's a lot of choice on there but might be worth a look!

Do you have time to buy online? It is Winter in Australia, cozy pjs abound. Peter Alexander has gorgeous stuff, not sure if they ship to the UK though.

It sounds like the sort of thing Primark would have year round?

Yes, try eBay.

I know what you mean, DD's birthday is next month and she also asked for a new onesie. Her old one is seriously too small.

She is in adult sizes and only asked for the onesie, so can't help about co-ordinating but we got hers from John Lewis online.

I remember once buying one from M&S kids in Summer as she also wears them during Scout camp, bit thinner than your normal fleece one but online available.

Have you looked at The White Stuff? Boden? Joules? More expensive but I found the quality really good in the past.
