Festive Fashion Day 1

24 Days till Christmas!
Today we went to Church, the shops and to a little housewarming.
A bit chilly but nice and dry.
What Man Cub wore:






Tots Bots Gingerbread print & then reindeer print nappy [previous season's prints no longer available]
  • We love these nappies because they are so so festive! Great fit but need boosting to last long enough to be practicle! Favourite of the two is definitely the reindeer print one. We bought both of these second hand, and that's the only place you'll find them now and be warned the prices are creeping up as they become rarer!
  • Check out more at www.totsbots.co.uk they've been winning awards and everything!
Stripey red tights from Miniclub @ Boots
  • It's a cold country in the winter time, yet it is almost impossible to find tights that are boy proof. These are great, they came as a pack of 3 for £9 this pair, a navy pair and another stripey pair. They keep Man cub's legs nice and toasty and not a fleck of pink in sight.
  • We bought ours instore at Boots, on a 3 for 2 offer but they are online too: http://www.boots.com/en/Mini-Club-Girls-3-Pack-Tights_1357802/
Red Christmas Knitted All in One from Miniclub @ Boots
  •  I was devastated when I saw they only did this up to 12 months, but it's so generously sized Man Cub just fits into a 9-12 month size! It's so soft and the robin's aren't far off space invaders (probably unintentional) which adds to it's coolness. There are buttons across the crotch and at the neck, so it's easy to take off over the head or a straight drop down. Great for comfy play and looking smart without the effort!
  • Again, ours was purchased instore at Boots on the 3 for 2 but it's online too http://www.boots.com/en/Mini-Club-Baby-Christmas-Knitted-All-In-One_1359418/
Tiny, Red Nubuck Boys T-bar Shoes from Startrite
  • Controversially I bought beautiful red shoes for my little man cub. I love them, he loves them and they have lasted so so well. They're last seasons now, so only available through outlets and second hand. They say for pre walkers but we love them because they are flexible enough to give more of a barefoot experience whilst protecting his little feet from the outside. We've walked miles in ours and they're still in great condition! We'll definitely be sticking with start rite going forward.
  • Still available on the start rite outlet site http://www.startriteshoes.com/outlet/boys/tiny-red-nubuck
Blue Duffle Coat from John Lewis
  • My best bargain find from last winter, a lovely woolen duffle coat, fleece lined with paddington bear buttons and everything! I've bene looking forward to it being cold enough for man cub to wear it! It's unnecessarily smart (but anyone who knows me knows I love taht on my boy) but so lovely and warm. Problem is, it makes man cub look so mischeivous, there's jsut too much cuteness for him not to be up to something. 
  • I bought this instore a lot earlier this year, there may be one or two floating around on eBay though.
Blue handknitted woolly hat
  • Entirely necessary in this weather, this one is a purchase from the local craft market bought out of an urgency for a hat! None of his other hats go with todys outfit at all,but this one's not a million miles off!


















So that's our man cub fashion today! I think he looked adorable, and the knitted all in one was a massive hit at Church!
See you tomorrow
