Have you ever just seen something and just fallen in love with it straight away? Marvel at the adorable collection of 100% cotton pinafore dresses on Lassie Girl’s Etsy shop.
If you think the modern graphic prints are terrific, you’ll be double happy to know you get two for the price of one – that is, all dresses are reversible with different prints on the other side. Wear them in warmer weather on their own or when cool, with a turtleneck and stockings – a mini mod look! I always like to feel I’m getting a bargain and these prices are amazing... now which ones to choose?
Lassie Girl ships internationally and dresses are priced at US$22 excluding shipping.
With ranges such as Kabuki and Japonesk, you’ll not be surprised to learn that New York based Sckoon offers a range of Japanese infused childrenswear in the softest of organic cottons. Take your pick from beautiful Kimono wrap-style all-in-ones in subtle modern prints to charming blankets, booties, hats, robes, cloth nappies & (organically) stuffed toys.
Not only for the style conscious, but also the social and environmentally conscious too – they are all manufactured in fair-trade factories and are certified organic internationally.
Sckoon ship internationally, and prices start at a reasonable US$13 for a baby cap and US$20 for kimono tops or pants.
In this era of convenience, environmental conscience and baby products may not always go hand in hand, however,

When is a t-shirt more than just a t-shirt? When it’s a Learning Tee! Cluey clothing company Learning Tees has
taken clothes and the way we use them outside the square with these super-soft organic cotton shirts.
Each tee features your choice of letter of the alphabet as well as its very own fact tag. This can be used to
look up a website which offers information about the t-shirt’s image, and a colouring sheet of the same word to download.
When you buy a Learning Tee, it’s not just a piece of clothing. It’s an opportunity to spark your child’s interest
in seeking facts. These aren’t just ordinary well-known facts either. Looking up ‘R is for Robot’ I discovered that
hurricane scientists send small robots into hurricanes to gather data. Your child will want to investigate every
letter of the alphabet with such unusual tidbits on offer!
Packaged in a box that matches the shirt, Learning Tees ships internationally and are priced at US$29 each.
