Help me find an adorable dress for a toddler!

[listed]

Hi, I really need some help in finding my 2 year old something to wear on Christmas day.

I have visions of a festive colour and traditional design, perhaps smocked, in velvet or cord, maybe long sleeved or cap sleeved with a matching cardi.

I will spend up to 50 quid.

I remember getting an email from Zulily yonks ago with a weblink to a beautiful site full of traditional victorian type childrens clothes, the kind of thing you can wear black patent t-bars with :)

I've looked at Boden, Joules, House of Fraser, Sarah Louise, Polarn O pyret, Cachet Kids.... I'm out of ideas!

The nearest I've found is this sort of thing

I also don't want her to look like she's attending Hogmanay at a Highland Castle.....

Can anyone help please?

Thanks x

Blue

Red

Any good?

Thanks for the reply!

I don't really like sleeveless on toddlers, and the red one is nice, but.... not really special enough iyswim?

I'm wondering about this but think it might be a bit too Hogmanay.... its sleeveless but comes with a bolero.

I'm having the same problem finding a nice festive dress for my 22 month old dd! Not much out there is there I've found a possible in jojo maman bebe for me but it would meet your criteria there is a velvety one in zara I'll try and find it

maybe?

simple but lovely
awww

This?

Have you tried John Lewis and Mamas and Papas?

I wanted something similar when DD2 was 2 and ended up getting something off ebay (think it was a Next dress)

DD2 has this and it's bloody lovely.

Most of the Little Bird range is lovely, TBH.

this? in the sale too

Ooh love that Tethers

DD2 looks VERY cute in it, even if I say so myself MrsL.

Oh thanks all!

I love the Little Bird one, I do like Jools' stuff generally, plus it gives me an excuse to buy the lovely red t bar shoes that Mothercare have at the moment.

The Betty Chocolate shop one is lovely too but I was hoping for a more Xmassy colour.... hmm could be persuaded!

I was wondering about this but don't think its warm enough.

Ta!

I bet The biggest size is just too small for DD, grr.

But, yes
red with cream
love this colour

what about this with a cardie?

JL red velvet dress
red silk dress
red velvet m&s
vintage style monsoon dress
another cute monsoon number

ooh lots more to look at, thanks.

(meant to be working but I'm sure a quick look won't hurt!)

Aww I love that baby hedgehog one from Monsoon!!
