mummc2 · 24/05/2016 21:06

Anyone any suggestions for me please - my daughter 11.7 yr has had a massive growth spurt and needs pjs but everything I show her is "way too babyish" she likes all the things I wear - which at the minute is vests and shorts nice pretty ones like checked and fancy detailing. I've looked and can only find sets with ice creams/bears/unicorns etc on and plain shorts!!!
I've seen gap do them but there's not a gap near us anymore!
Help???

My daughter is a similar age and is wearing the Primark size 6-8 ladies pyjamas, long trousers and t-shirt top. Lots of different designs, many of which are very suitable for that age group.

My nieces like asda pjs

Matalan.

My dd had Tesco size 8-10 at that age for the same reason.

Hollister and superdry do the shorts and you can get beats anywhere

Primark has loads of those pj styles in

mummc2 · 28/05/2016 21:05

Thanks I spoke to a friend who had some from gap and advised on size so ordered a couple off there as was 35% off but will have a look at primary etc for ladies. I always get her basics vests etc from h&m. I haven't really thought about ladies cos she's such a skinny minny but I know how sizes can be hugely different so will give a try.
Thanks everyone x

Primark or new look teen range.

Dancergirl · 31/05/2016 10:21

My dd is a bit older and loves New Look pjs (either small ladies size or the 9-15 section). I've also go her recently a 3 pack from M and S girls department, they're printed but definitely not babyish.

I'm 27 and wear unicorn pjs Grin

Maybebabybee · 31/05/2016 10:23

But yes h&m great for pjs. Also try asos.com.

angieloumc · 05/06/2016 21:59

M&S have some lovely ones, little vests and plain shorts.

New Look & Topshop

Was going to suggest Primark too. My 11 year old is a skinny mini but ladies size 6-8 often fits her. Otherwise H&M is her favourite at the moment.

Fairylea · 08/06/2016 18:57

New look size 6 women's are a good fit for a 12 year old generally. They also have a teen range. My dd is 13 and most of her clothes come from new look or primark with the odd basic from next women's thrown in (she doesn't like their kids stuff as its too babyish even though it goes up to age 16).
