Not too tarty as a lot of it seems to be, or as expensive as Monsoon (£42

Any ideas?

BHS have some lovely ones.

JackieNoHoHo · 12/12/2006 22:39

Try Tesco too.

Ceolas · 12/12/2006 22:40

Oh good ideas. Don't you just hate the M&S stuff for 5s and over this year?

Love Monsoon, but can't justify the cost for something she'll wear twice!

NappiesGalooooooooooooria · 12/12/2006 23:54

mothercare not bad either but really hit and miss, branch/stock dependent.

mrssnoah · 12/12/2006 23:57

ooh yes zara... lovely lovely things and cheap too.

You could always go for monsoon and then sell it on Ebay in 'as new worn once' condition.

Or check out ebay now for NWT stuff?

I am very happy with my dd's h&m purple net skirt , gold shoes and purple t-shirt, probably doesn't sound that nice but it isn't really frou frou almost punk looking,or is it frou frou punk.... just wish I could get her a pair of dark purple and shocking pink stripy tights... a set of wings and she might look like a fairy

have I managed to put you off h&m?

Zara is lovely too, but slightly more expensive imho

Debenhams and M&S can have some lovely stuff

Incase anyone wants trousers, Asda have reduced their kids black velvety trousers and skirts to £2.50 , and they also had alot of the other christmassy type wear reduced too.

ComeOyefaithfulVeneer · 13/12/2006 11:27

Woolworths have girl's party dresses half price atm.

twelvedaysofchristmas · 13/12/2006 11:34

Gap have cute sequinned skirts and matching tops.

foxinsocks · 13/12/2006 11:35

Zara has some really pretty girls' stuff in at the moment.
