Wear on Repeat | One Look, Three Ways to Wear It
When it comes to kids’ wardrobes, it’s a great idea to stock up on those hardworking pieces that they can wear on repeat. We all have that one item in our wardrobe that we reach for time and time again. A favourite sweater that is perfect for layering, or maybe a versatile jacket that goes with just about anything.
The key to getting the most wear out of one item is to a) prioritise comfort, b) make sure it’s easy to care for and c) choose something that they really, really love. To help you find their new favourite, we’ve chosen pieces from our collections that not only look good, but will also become the building blocks to your child’s wardrobe.

The Wear-with-Everything Polo Shirt
If it's not in their drawer, it will be on them, or on the washing line.
Mix and Match
We love this fresh take on the classic cotton polo shirt. Designed by Scottish brand Mitch & Son, it has preppy contrast details and a subtle camouflage print that make it feel cool and contemporary. Team it with a pair of smart Il Gufo shorts and BOSS loafers on a sunny day, layer it up with a cosy Tommy Hilfiger sweatshirt and chinos when it's chilly, or throw on a Versace varsity-style jacket for the ultimate laid-back look he'll want to wear at every opportunity.
The Versatile Skirt
The skirt they'll want to wear everywhere, with everything.
Practical Princess
It's pink, it's graduated, it has ruffles and a bow. What else could you ask from a skirt? We know this light and airy design from Phi Clothing will capture the hearts of many a mini princess. A lot more practical than it looks, this pretty skirt is machine washable and can be worn with trainers, dressed up with party shoes — like these bow-trimmed beauties from Monnalisa — and a multitude of different tops and jackets.
The Standout Dress
A beautifully made dress that can be worn for every occasion.
Dress it Up, Dress it Down
This pale-blue linen-blend dress from Piccola Speranza is a brilliant investment for any parent whose little one has a packed schedule of birthday parties, theatre trips and visits to see the grandparents. The exquisite lace collar adds a pretty flourish while its soft cotton lining makes this dress super comfortable with or without tights. For more casual days, team with ribbon-tied trainers from Children's Classics and soften the collar with a sweet cardigan like this style from Angel's Face.
