Blame it on the royal children – here’s where Prince George and Princess Charlotte’s clothes are from FYI – or the rise of mummy influencers, but we’ve never been so obsessed with stylish baby clothes.
Whilst before they might’ve been purely functional, children’s clothes now have their very own trends, making them chic as well as practical. Just as gorgeous as the ready-to-wear collections, the miniature clothes are embracing prints and pastels as much as we are this season (here’s a refresh of the main summer trends for you).
In fact, some of the offering for SS22 is so fashion-forward, you’ll wish it came in adult size so you could match your baby or toddler.
Prepare for the fact that your little girl may out-do you in the style stakes this season with their mini-me party dresses, sparkling flats, floral blouses and backpacks.
As for the boy’s collections, logo sweatshirts, chic tailoring and cool jeans are the top looks for little dudes. And when it comes to shoes, boys can be just like dad with cool trainers for running around in.
There’s something to suit all budgets as well. Designers such as Rachel Riley, Dolce & Gabbana, Burberry and Dior all offer highly covetable styles that look straight off the runway, from party dresses to loungewear.
As for the high-street, you’re simply spoiled for choice. The likes of Zara Kids, H&M, Lindex and Mamas & Papas all have a huge offering so you can build a complete wardrobe for your baby, toddler or kid, from outerwear to sleepwear, swimwear to essentials such as babygrows and underwear.
From the cutest newborn baby clothes to the kids clothes I wish they made for adults too, I’ve compiled the top children’s and baby clothes available to buy right now for you. Scroll down to shop my edit…

All Aboard Dungarees, £61 at Annafie
The traditional blue-striped dungarees with colourful trains embroidered across the chest are the ultimate staple in traditional dressing and look great with a shirt or vest layered underneath.
