Kids Posh Togs

As the holiday season approaches, it’ll soon be time to gather together all the swimming costumes and bikinis for the family.  Your daughter will love this pretty little pink flower two-piece.  Very girly, the top has a halter-neck that fastens with a tie and a contrasting pink bow fastens the two sections together, which are also tied at the back with long trims.  Similar contrasting pink bows can be found on the bottoms too.

Both pieces can be stored when not in use in the drawstring carry bag that is provided with this item.

Made from cotton, this bikini is available in sizes from 2-3 years to 10-11 years.

Learning to swim can be difficult for young children but is such an important skill that can’t be learned early enough.  Help your child gain confidence in the water with a float suit like this one from Archimede.

This float suit for boys comes in a number of sizes from 12 months to 4 years and is the perfect aid for learning to swim.  A full suit that fastens by zip down the back, the suit has floats incorporated into pockets around the waist – leaving your child’s arms and legs free to practice swimming.  Once he gains his confidence and skills, you may remove a number of floats gradually until he feels comfortable with none.

The suit comes in its own swim bag.

These funky swimming shorts are just the thing for fashion-conscious boys.  Featuring the iconic Paul Smith stripe design, the shorts are fashionably long with an elasticated waist for comfort and fit.

In total there are 3 handy pockets for your son to place his keys, phone or cash whilst strolling along the beach.  The image to the left shows the back view of the shorts featuring the buttoned back pocket.

These swim shorts can be machined washed at a low temperature.  They are available in sizes from 2 to 12 years, although a similar design is also available for babies.

2012 is the year of the London Olympics so celebrate in style with these fantastic swimming trunks  and fly the flag for Team GB!

With a drawstring waist for a comfortable fit, these trunks from Dolce & Gabbana Junior are also available in a brief style.  They feature a graphic that reads: ‘London Sport Believer’.

These swimming trunks don’t compromise on style and quality – perfect for the fashion-conscious young man.

Not only are all the new collections for everyday and special occasion clothes just out, you can also take your pick of the latest swimwear too.  This lovely navy blue all-in-one swimsuit for girls has all the glamour and looks that the modern girl loves.

Available in sizes from 2 to 12 years, this swimsuit has a v-neck front and a plunging v-back.  Fully lined, it has a pretty white band across the chest with a little white bow in the middle, both of which have been encrusted with sparkling diamante.  The neck and sleeve edges have also been covered with the white and diamante fabric.  Turn round to the back and you will find another horizontal white band and small bow.

The swimming costume comes with its own storage bag.

Available as an all-in-one as shown here or a two-piece bikini, this pretty pink halterneck swimsuit from D&G Junior features this seasons bandanna design.  With panels of design down the neckline and a repeated pattern all over the rest of the swimsuit.

The halterneck is elasticated so it can be stretched easily over your daughters head when putting the swimsuit on, and avoids the need for fussy ties and fasteners that may accidentally come open at inappropriate times!

This swimsuit can be hand-washed for convenience, and is available in sizes for young girls from 2 to 10 years.

Hopefully you have your holiday booked by now so you are busy counting the days.  If you haven’t bought all the essentials for the family, now is a great time as there are plenty of bargains to be had!  Take for example this pretty pink tulle swimsuit from Kate Mack.  Renowned for producing items that are really girly and feminine, this swimsuit is no exception.  Pretty pink fabric flowers adorn the top and waist, whilst the overall look is linked to a ballerina theme.

The halter-neck strap is adjustable so you can get the perfect fit for your daughter so she looks great wearing the swimsuit and is comfortable too.  The swimsuit has a gentle ruffle around the ‘skirt’.  Prefer something not quite so pink and frilly?  There are other pieces in the Kate Mack swimwear range that would suit, including a very nice navy and white nautical themed tankini set.

If your daughter’s preference for swimwear is an all-in-one swimsuit rather than a bikini or tankini, she may like this sky blue swimsuit from Rachel Riley.  Decorated with a red and white sailboat pattern for a great nautical look.

There are lots of feminine touches to this swimsuit such as the elasticated smocking panels down the back and sides, and the ruffled frill down the front edges and deep frilled skirt.  Self-tie ribbon straps complete the design.

This swimsuit is available in sizes from 3 to 10 years.

With a cris-cross back, this pale blue one-piece swimsuit from Pate de Sable looks good enough to eat!

The blue background is covered with yummy things to eat such as biscuits and buns of all shapes and sizes.

On the front the swimsuit features a pink and white striped bow attachment on the left side of the neckline, and frilled edges around the leg holes.

Available in sizes from 2 to 12 years, and also available as a two-piece bikini.

This retro style girl’s bikini is a great 2-piece for poolside as well as the beach.  We love the ‘skirt’ bottoms that are so reminiscent of the 1950s swimwear styling.  The contrasting buttons on the bikini top are a nice touch too.

Shown here in blue gingham, the bikini is also available in a pink stripe version and also a cherry red with white hearts.

All 3 versions are currently in stock for all sizes (2-3 to 13-14 years), but as with previous years, stocks are expected to sell quickly.  However, plenty more designs or bikinis and one-piece swimming costumes are available for you to browse.
