Am looking for a two piece sun suit or just a t-shirt for dd. Are rash vests the same or something different ?

Only if they say they are UV protective - rash vests are just there to stop your wetsuit chafing (though I have worn mine when snorkelling etc and it did stop me burning)

ah right - thanks. Thought they must be something technical. Thats a shame - back to the search then !

how old is she? can the MN Google Posse help you look?

I would say she's about size 2-3. I didn't want to spend a lot on it as its just for one holiday and was hoping to either get one in the boden sale or next sale (or get the next one) but they've sold out.

If anyone has any ideas that would be smashing - I want a two piece as she will be potty trained by then (she will, she will) !

Boots doing some at present too. Buy one get one half price (so matching hat or so forth).

thanks - Have just managed to order the Adams one (the site was messing about). Got the shorts too as it was such a bargain but I don't know why as dd will only wear dresses and the occasional skirt but I'm a sucker for matching !!
