3 adorable playground outfits for girls

- - No comments
Shopping for the new school year can be incredibly stressful. Edgars has you sorted with three cute, clever outfit ideas.
Shopping for the new school year can be the most stressful part of January for parents. Edgars has you covered with three adorable outfits that will take your little girl from the playground, to playing princess later.

The ruffled princess

Ruffle detailing is one summer trend that isn’t going anywhere. Of course, a frilly princess dress isn’t always practical for the playground. Rather opt for items that incorporate ruffles subtly, for example on the hem or shoulders. These ruffled T-shirts are adorable and school-friendly. Add a bag and she’s set!

Queen for a day

Your little queen will slay all day in a regal palette of white and Champagne. Baby-doll shoes and a loyal subject (aka a sweet little soft toy) complete the look.

Flower child

Nothing brightens up a day like a splash of pink, a full tulle skirt and a flower crown. Sadly, as adults, we can’t really rock such an outfit on an average weekday – but your toddler can! Add a a pretty pair of ankle-strap shoes, and this gets our vote for outfit of the week.

4 benefits of getting back-to-school ready right now!

- - No comments
Like most daunting things in life, getting ready for the new school year is a task best tackled early.
While the kids have only just closed for end of year holidays, there are some real benefits to being ready for the new year school rush, now.

Nelson Mandela famously said ‘It always seems impossible until it’s done’. Many parents feel this exact way when faced with the mountain of check lists, new uniform requirements and book wrapping and labelling that faces them at the beginning of a new school year. But, like most daunting things in life, back to school tasks are best tackled early, and piece by piece. 

Benefit 1:

Avoiding the long queues at school supply stores

Doing your school shopping in December means that the school supply stores will be relatively quiet (except for the other efficient parents winking at your brilliance as they walk past), allowing you to shop with less rush and frustration.

Benefit 2:

Taking advantage of festive season specials on school essentials

Many grocery stores have specials meant to appeal to the Christmas shopper, but those items are just as useful for back to school. You can stockpile on things like small fruit juices for lunch boxes, wrapping paper for school books (avoid the Christmas-themed kind and stick to abstract prints and patterns) and healthy snacks like nuts and dried fruit.

Benefit 3:

Make the book wrapping a part of gift-wrapping fun

The festive season is a time of exchanging gifts so there’ll be lots for you and the kids to wrap. Throw the school books into the mix and cover a few every day so that it doesn’t feel like a tedious exercise days before school opens.

Benefit 4:

Purchase Edgars exclusives while stocks last 

There are a number of school essentials that are only found at Edgars, making it worth your while to head to stores before others get the same idea. Bata Bubblegummers are casual shoes exclusive to selected Edgars stores. Playful, colourful and fun, these girls' and boys' sandals are kind to kids' feet and durable, with slip-resistant soles scientifically designed for each stage of growth. What makes them even more fun is the fact that they are bubblegum-scented.

Time to shine

A funky watch can really add a cool edge to your outfit - especially one with a sporty look which can transform a normal outfit to one that screams athleisure.

Sporty Backpack

Backpacks are super cool, and are essential for the holiday season, as well as super handy for school. Take a page out of Zayn Malik's book and add a sporty backpack to finish off your look.

Loose Silhouette

A big trend this season - oversized or loose-fitting clothes such as T-shirts. Basically the bigger the better. Don't let it drown you though, but don't go for tight-fitting either. À la The Biebs.

Monochrome

Monochromatic looks are all the rage right now - especially when it comes to sporting gear. Pair a black and white sports vest with a pair of casual shorts to add the edge your outfit is looking for.

Colour Blocking

This trend has already been around for a while and isn't going anywhere fast. Look to cool dudes like Jaden Smith for some inspiration on how to colour block your athleisure wear.

Shopping for the new school year can be stressful. Get your toddler ready without the hassle, thanks to these slogan T-shirts and three cool outfit ideas from Edgars.
It's a whole new year, and your little man deserves some new threads. Edgars has the best selection of slogan T-shirts, bright basics and cool sneakers to choose from.

The cool kid

He’s friendly and easy-going, and loves to express his personality with bright colours and a slogan tee. To get your little hype man ready for his first day on the playground, start with a bold backpack and build the look from there.

The future influencer

Your little one may be an introvert, but his clothes do all the talking necessary. Stick to a muted palette of navy and neutrals, and let the details steal the show – like this ‘awesome’ slogan T-shirt and some seriously cool kicks. Something cuddly completes the sensitive image.

The budding scientist

Your little boy is out of this world! He loves anything to do with space, science and machines, and probably wants to be an astronaut when he grows up. Get him a slogan T-shirt so the world knows to watch out for this Elon Musk in the making.
