DUNGAREES PLEASE

Hardwearing (and not to mention adorable!), dungarees are a great way to add some quirky character to your kid's wardrobe. For boys, pair a classic white tee with farmer-style dungarees and top the vintage look off with a hat. Girls can rock the dress version of the dungaree look and team it with a tee in a bright colour. Crisp white velcro sneakers finish the look off nicely.

BOTANICAL PRINTS AND RUFFLED DELIGHTS

Botanical print is always a winner – especially on this deep-blue buttoned shirt. Paired with wonderfully lightweight linen shorts, this ensemble is ideal for those searing-hot days. The same applies for your little girl – frills and ruffles take centre stage in this stone-coloured blouse and shorts combo, which are also made from a lighter material.

FORMAL WITH A CASUAL TWIST

Formalwear doesn’t have to be fuddy-duddy and restrictive. A short-sleeved shirt and jeans – with the cuffs rolled up for a trendy spin – and a pair of strappy sandals fit the bill. A white sundress with anglaise edging and pretty pink sandals is just the ticket for a more sophisticated function.

DEPENDABLE DENIM

The trusty fabric makes yet another appearance on our list. Dress your little guy in a pair of acid-wash shorts and an ombre slogan tee; and bring out the much-loved brights with a sunshine-yellow frilled romper for your fun-loving girl. Just throw on a denim jacket if the chill sets in.

FLORAL FUN FOR EVERYONE

Tropical leaf prints are here to stay. For a quintessential summer vibe, opt for a golf shirt in a fun floral and leaf print and pair it with navy utility shorts. For girls, pineapples scream summer, so this little number, with its uber-feminine frills and ruching, is simply perfect for any occasion.

SWIMWEAR AND BEACHSIDE STYLE

What better theme for kiddies beachwear than sharks and mermaids? Kit him out in a matching shark-print hooded towel and board shorts, while you dress your little mermaid to the nines in this sparkly, metallic bikini – she’ll love the addition of the tulle mermaid tail!

NOT-SO-BASIC BASICS

Rather than the expected black and white separates, shades of blue and grey paired with white are softer and more adaptable, making them so much more wearable. Grab a couple of basic tees in white and grey, chino shorts and a soft denim cap for good measure. A soft denim romper – being a nifty all-in-one item – makes getting dressed that much easier.
