1. Choose clothing that offer two styles for the price of one

A dress for your child this season can transform into a blouse next year. Bonjour Diary, a brand we love at Little French Heart, creates tuniques that are made for wearing as a dress when upsized. As your child grows the dress becomes a blouse to wear with pants or skirts or shorts. Two different wears for the prize of one.

3. Dress that becomes a skirt

Like the tuniques, Bonjour Diary has created another perfect long wearing item. The Long Skirt Dress begins as a dress with ties at the shoulder. When your child grows the dress is designed to become a skirt. Given Bonjour Diary’s exquisite details, and the sweet scarf or bow accessory that accompanies each long skirt dress, the piece will be a much loved item for several years before handing on.

5. Buy our European brands in our upside down season and save up to 40 per cent

Little French Heart stocks mostly European designs because of the designers we love. It often means garments have been reduced in price by about 30 per cent in line with the European seasons, so for those living in the Southern Hemisphere such as Australia and New Zealand, buying in season means quality garments are often beautifully discounted at Little French Heart. Once items have been on sale for more than a few months the BONJOUR code to save a further 10% is opened on the garments taking the savings up to 40%.

6. Good quality clothing is excellent value

Buying beautiful clothing that is well made using sustainable practices, and which supports small businesses, offers all of us a better quality of life. These are the kinds of items that create memories for you and your children to savour for a lifetime. Being able to save a little more by extending the life of the clothing or purchasing it during sale seasons corresponding to our current season is simply great value.
