I do buy well-known brands, too, but I look for pieces that
are less obvious. For example, at Boden I avoid bold stripes
and
bright prints and nd great accessories, such as the gold
sandals my girls have worn all summer. I also shop at Jigsaw
Junior
and Zara, although I know my time is limited — both shops
have gorgeous things from baby clothes until age seven, but
then it
gets a bit too street. I don’t do logos or sparkles.
I would never buy designer clothes for my daughters because
they are growing like weeds and a £60 dress for the mother of
twins is £120. They are very lucky that they were given two
Dolce & Gabbana dresses by a friend, which I have on
antique
hangers in their bedrooms. My main style rule is that I don’t
want them to look too grown-up — they’re six and I want to
hold on to that and let them look like children.
