Sorry, I agree the stars are a bit feminine (boys stars are small, girls can have large stars).

Of course that is just my opinion and I am perfectly aware that it is a baseless and silly opinion at best

DS has the green star top that they sell as pyjamas, but wears it as daywear - and it looks fab.

We also put him in leggings, and we love the look

seeing as my DS was wearing pink trousers with flowers on today YANBU!

No worries Mary Poppins his dictatorial views on DS's clothes are the least of my worries ...

I think that it is nice to dress wee boys in bright colours - soon enough they will want to wear only football tops and jeans half way down their bums so we may as well dress them nicely while we have some say in it!

This site is brilliant, the stock changes all the time so worth looking very few days.

I love the children's salon- would love to get this for DD.... don't think I could ever justify the cost, even if I were a billionaire!
It's probably not even that warm... though I don't suppose that matters if you are chauffered everywhere...

The red stars coat is great- I would put it on a boy or a girl.
