Second hand 'older style' brownies uniform?

DD will be moving up from rainbows in September, so need to sort a uniform. For rainbows, I got a second hand bundle for £10, because it's only worn 1h a week and I wasn't sure if she'd stick with it, then it got badges sawn on it, so 3 years later she is still wearing it.

Was considering doing the same again, but as they have just changed the Uniform, there won't be anything avaliable in the new style. Should I suck it up and spend the £50 on a new set, or get a second hand set in the previous style (which they are still allowed to wear)

I'm just going to get the t shirt and the hoodie in the new style and then I will get some brown leggings from somewhere else as the Rainbows leggings didn't wear well.

Our rainbows leader actually told us not to bother getting the rainbows leggings, so everyone just had red supermarket ones, or came in school trousers with just the top half changed.

What size are you getting? I'm going to be putting the badges on the hoodie, so don't want to have to move them, but not sure how baggy I can get away with.
