smart clothes for boys

[Moos]

Has anyone got suggestions for websites to buy smart summer kit? Have tried The White Company and even Boden, eek! But nothing...

Looking for a nice linen shirt, trousers, smart belt, smart sandals for handsome (fond mother) 5 year old.

Many thanks!

Gap for shirts/trousers most certainly! La Redoute? Hennes?

Maybe some of it is a bit too smart but there's linen trousers and a short sleeve linen shirt.

I was looking recently for my son who is younger than yours (and also handsome!) and noticed that Next have a good range of smart long sleeve summer shirts and trousers in the age range you're after. They start at size 3 so still too big for my lad.

If I'm after something special I sometimes buy designer stuff from online sale sites like Junior Style. Then of course there is ebay for high quality kids clothes you wouldn't want to pay full price for. I have searches set up for the brands I like in his size and buy lots of his clothes for a few pounds a piece that would cost a fortune new and they are usually in pretty good nick. If you are after something for a wedding ebay is a good bet as the outfits have probably been worn once or twice before being outgrown.

Loads of online boutiques are having summer sales at the moment. The blog bambinogoodies has a good round up of the sales and has discount codes. Happy shopping!
