Dandy Dijjie

Dijjie have designed some more beautiful baby suits.  It really is a shame both my boys are way too big for them!

How gorgeous is the "dandy doo" below?

Dandy Doo by Dijjie

It comes in sizes    0-3 months, 

                            3-6 months, 

                            6-9 months,

                            9-12 months

and a snip at £20.

The Dandy Doo is super soft and durable. The playsuit, is printed to give the cool but stylish look of dark indigo jeans finished with a dandy red neck scarf.

It has an edgy look but with the practical benefits of a romper. It is nickel-free, with branded poppers on the inside leg for easy access.
it is also machine washable up to 40° to blast all those baby stains!

Sunny but grey

Little boy Lexx is unwell again, so I  have had a clinging child on me all day, with both of us having three changes of clothing, because of his illness. (need I say more)

I've been thinking of Grey today. I really like grey, which is unusual for me as I like my boys in something a little less traditional. Then I thought about one of the nicest items of clothing I brought Lexx.  A fluffy grey/silver coat when he was about 9 months old. I loved him in it. Of course it was meant to be for a girl. It was far too interesting for a boy to wear!

I also dress Lexx  in his grey skinny jeans, a v neck sweater and a bright t-shirt underneath, to give it a pop of colour.

Baby Blues

I was so excited taking my boy home. I had these amazing ideas of dressing him in fun original clothes. I was one of the few people now a day’s that didn’t know the sex of their baby before it was born. So other than a few baby grows in white, I didn’t have a thing.

The first trip was to mother care. All very sweet things, reasonable quality, but unless you wanted to dress your boy in baby blue, or beige you were stumped. I then went to pretty much all the other well known shops that sell baby clothes and came up with the same things. Blue, blue and more blue.

What is it with clothing manufacturers? Why oh why do they assume the mothers of boy babies do not have any imagination. That we all want our “little men” to be clones of each other?

I eventually gave up and went on line. . . it still wasn’t easy. But I found some lovely stuff that was made in Holland and Finland and the uk (you will see from my previous posts how much I think of dijjie   http://www.dijjie.com/) Lovely quality and not baby blue!
