My favourites are mamas and papas, jasper conran. I also shop at Asda (George) and Sainsbury's (TU). Asda's I think are a good allrounder - the clothes come up perfect for Harry and wash up ok - they are not as good quality as Mamas and Papas but then again the price tags are different xxx

Usually Sainsbury's, Tesco & Asda. I have a few bits from Mothercare & Next in the sale. I found Marks & Spencer are really big and Asda's clothing tends to shrink a lot in the dryer! Sainsbury's have beautiful children's clothes.

I love love love love next! Most of LO's clothes are from there, the sizes come up about average there, I also shop in h&m and their sizes seem to be quite generous. I love gap too but their sizes come up on the smaller side and boots which I find average to big

I love Next clothes but they do come a bit small (as does my LO!). M&S are nice and come a bit big. Pumpkin Patch do some lovely clothes but they can be pricier. I love the colourful things though. I've bought little baby vests, towels, blankets and sleepsuits from Primark and they've been fine. Also Matalan. I bought some lovely little summer dresses for her from Peacocks and Mothercare but she hardly got to wear them as they didn't fit her until October! But the Peacocks ones were good value for money.

For style, colour and value for money I'd go with Next though. It's a good all rounder for me.

E-bay! They're only in the clothes for a couple of months at a time, and as long as you watch the sellers feedback you're usualy, fine, i've bought loads of stuff for LO from ebay for less than 1/4 of the original price just because it's been worn maybe 5-10 times! As long as you wash it when you get it then i see no problem hehe x

Our local Tesco is the same - even though its huge and a Tesco Extra the boys clothes selection is just terrible! I tend to get most of his stuff from Asda as they have a great baby clothes department at our local one. In fact as soon as LO wakes up from his nap that's where we are off to!

I used to shop in M&S, Next, Mothercare etc and spent an absolute fortune.....and then I started getting given clothes from a friend whose little girl is growing so fast most of her gorgeous clothes she is only wearing once! So now I very rarely need to buy anything!

My daughter is 98th centile and I found
ASDA = Generous
Next = Small
H&M = perfect
Monsoon = generous
Boots = small
Marks and spencer = Small
