Inspired by British seaside scenes the new Piccalilly baby clothes range is great fun and as always made from their lovely organic & Fairtrade certified cotton. Fun, cute and stylish the "Fish n' Ships" rompers, hats and blankets are just gorgeous. We especially like the sun hats with their adorable little under the chin ties. The towelling stripe playsuits look just like deck chair stripes and they are soooo soft you'll be looking for any excuse to dress your little one in them and give the a snuggly cuddle.
As well as funky and stylish designs what makes Piccalilly extra special is the cotton they use.

Green Baby autumn and winter clothing for babies and children has arrived at Babi Pur. Fabulous circus inspired designs with stars, stripes, trees, elephants, crazy birds, snails and even lions! We love the bright colours and funky animals, they're just so playful and fun. Sizes start from 0 months in playsuits and baby clothes and go right up to 6 years in pyjamas trousers tops coats and more!
But Green Baby clothes don't just look fabulous . . . they are fabulous . . . they're fabulous because all the cotton used is organic (GOTS certified) and all the clothes are made on fair trade projects in India. Cotton farmers, pattern cutters, machinists, everyone gets a fair wage and good working conditions that we take for granted here in the UK.
And what's so good about organic cotton? Well Green Baby organic baby clothes are super soft because the fibres don't get damaged by chemical pesticides. Organic cotton is better for babies skin and eczema friendly because it isn't made up of any chemicals. Organic cotton is better for the cotton farmers because they don't get exposed to harmful chemicals that effect their health. Organic cotton is better for the environment too, because cotton is a non food product it has become most sprayed crop in the world, the pesticides get washed into streams and rivers effecting the wildlife and water quality.
Here's a few of our Green Baby favourites and a review from Nichola who tried out the Green Baby organic sleeping bags
From the top, funky bird organic Pyjamas for children (2-6 years) and there's more Pyjamas to choose from too, great Christmas or birthday presents! Dress with mock sleeves and stripy matching leggings (6 months to 6 years), lovely thick cotton and great colours. Mushroom romper (0-18 months), we love Green Baby funky creatures, this cheeky little bird looks very cute sitting on the big mushroom. Green Starry Romper (0-24 months) bright and fun star print looks great and there's a matching hat, bib and blanket available if you're looking for a nice gift.
Organic cotton padded 2.5 tog sleeping bag. Available in two sizes and two colours, here's what Nicola had to say about hers.
We got a new 2.5 tog sleeping bag as the weather is getting colder and our little boy refuses to keep a cover over him. The sleeping bag is a natural colour with the stars printed on and inside is a lush soft terry. The outside is quilted too making it really padded. The zip starts from the top and goes down, which pleases me as he then can't chew on the zipper. He's had a few nights in it now and slept soundly through them all - and hopefully many more to come!
So pop over to the Green Baby section at Babi Pur to pick up some super duper organic clothing for your little girls and boys this winter.

Little Green Radicals baby and children's clothing is all about fun, colour and slogans. 'I recycle my tantrums' and 'give peas a change' are just two of many popular catchphrases printed on T-shirts, playsuits, bibs and hoodies (coming soon). Everything is exclusively made with Fairtrade certified cotton ensuring the farmers right at the bottom of the chain receive a fair deal for their crop and an extra premium to use on projects to help their local communities. Not only this but everything is also made from organic cotton. . .
Growing organic cotton is very different from growing conventional cotton. All the cotton we use is hand-picked and organic. This ensures the farmers don’t have to handle dangerous chemicals and our clothing is kinder on your skin. The cotton is certified organic to either Skal or Demeter standards. Since May 2006 all our prints have been produced using the most ecological water based inks available.
The company 'Hug' has recently been acquired by a giant of the ethical industry 'ethical superstore'. So with all these fantastic ethics, clothes and new financial backing we expect great things from 'Little Green Radicals' . Look out for the latest baby and toddler range at Babi Pur
If you’re looking for a dress that looks great on babies and toddlers, is bright, colourful as well as being ethically produced take a look at this gorgeous little number by Piccalilly in sizes 6 months to 2 years
This organic cotton dress is made from Fairtrade certified cotton and comes in three bright colours... ‘Raspberry’ ‘Blackcurrant’ and ‘Brick Red’ I bought the ‘Blackcurrant’ and ‘Brick Red’ for my little girl Isabelle nearly a year ago. She’s continued to wear them even though she’s outgrown the 12-18 size! It looks great as a top when outgrown and the best thing about this dress is that it still looks like new after months of wear and washing.
