Polarn O. Pyret Body Suit
A suitably eye-catching and well-made piece from Swedish kidswear kings Polarn O. Pyret (or PoP). This incredibly cute hooded number, taken straight from their 2015 spring collection, epitomises the brand’s quest for good-looking clothes that make life easier. The piece is made from 100 per cent cotton and has a practical zip to keep changes easy and the farm print design adds a playful touch. Also, their stuff lasts forever so this is a perfect one to pass down through the family.

Apple print
This fun design from Stella McCartney kids is the perfect piece to celebrate the coming of Spring – and one that will also keep your little one cool and comfortable, as the weather (hopefully!) gets warmer. Made from 100 per cent organic cotton, it also has popper fastenings along the legs and crotch for easy changing. And there is a matching under-vest available, too.

Big Top Baby Sleep Suit
A sweet and practical choice, this circus print themed body suit is a great little design, with a good-looking price to boot. The piece has a practical leg opening style for easy changing and is made from 100 per cent pure cotton. As a bonus, all baby suits from Jojo Maman Bebe come with stratch mitts which are incorporated into fold over scratch cuffs.

Kitts Baby Romper
Seriously charming and rather smart, this seasonal wrap-around from Caramel Baby and Child combines minimal design with a playful white and navy button print. The suit itself is cut from 100 per cent soft cotton jersey for ultimate comfort, and the tie fastenings and poppers make it super easy to whip on and off. The dark colour is practical, too; after all, stains can be an issue…
