I just love this picture of Roo, he looks so sweet and so peaceful. The peter pan collar on a boy’s shirt is wonderful!
This is the shirt that Roo is wearing but from the front. See that collar?! Toby was sent a slightly different shirt, though I couldn’t quite get him to sit still! Hopefully, I’ll get one soon and I can add it for all to see his cuteness!!
I always think at this time of year we are all inundated with pretty dresses and outfits for girls, which I’m not complaining about, I can’t wait to dress my little lady up, but I can’t help feel as a Mama to two little gentlemen that there isn’t as much for boys to dress up at Christmas time!
With Reuben and Toby having better social calendars than me at this time of year (no really: birthday parties, plays and rehearsals, preschool and nursery parties and all other manner of things!) I really wanted them to have something special for the Christmas season that was comfortable and practical for them to wear to special events or even just to be a bit more smart casual with chinos and a big chunky knit!
That is where Ana from the fabulous Lace & Ribbons boutique has really come in and saved my bacon by sending over these adorable shirts from Bonnet à Pompon, a super chic Spanish brand. The shirts are 100% cotton and look just right with chinos and a big chunky jumper or even fitted trousers and braces for the party look… not that they stay looking so adorable but still!
I especially love the peter pan collars on the shirts, they are adorable and so sleek, but something you seldom see on little boy’s shirts… another thing that bugs me!
You can buy from the Bonnet à Pompon range here at the brilliant Lace & Ribbons, who have a full range of Christmas party wear for boys and girls!
