Emma Bunton for Argos

When I was asked if I'd like to review some clothes for Argos I was a little dubious. To start with, I didn't even realise that Argos sold clothes and secondly I wasn't sure if the clothes would be the style I like to buy. Then they introduced me to the Emma Button range of children's clothes, designed exclusively for Argos and I was pleasantly surprised. 

The clothing range included many items that were right up my street, both in styles and colours. I liked the trendy edge that boys clothes had and the girls clothes were just right for my 6 year old girl. I have a constant headache trying to find clothes for her as girls clothes seem to be either too young looking, way too old looking or hideously overpriced from places like Joules or Boden. The Emma Bunton girls range is perfect for her age.

Argos told me I could pick two items for each of my children and for my daughter I selected the Gingham Prom Dress and the Colour Block Skirt.  For my son, I chose the Printed Guitar Hoodie and the Union Jack T-Shirt.

I had forgotten all about this until I received a delivery at the weekend. The clothes immediately got the children's seal of approval. Well, mummy has good taste.  After going into battle with the iron (clothes don't travel well do they?) I popped them on to the children.

The clothes fit really well and very true to size. My daughter particularly liked the dress and it did look really pretty on, the perfect summer dress and the skirt was gorgeous too, nice and swirly as my little lady says.

I have to say I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the clothes and the fact that they are 100% cotton. I think these will wash well and we will get a lot of use out of them over the summer. In fact, I know that these will wash well as my son immediately put the t-shirt on and promptly dropped tomato ketchup all down the front. I didn't wash it straightaway as I forgot (such a slattern!) but am pleased to report that all traces of ketchup were removed from the t-shirt!

I really like the Emma Bunton range and am already considering buying a couple of items - they're on 3 for 2 at the moment as well which makes them even better value and now I've seen the quality of them firsthand, I wouldn't hesitate snapping them up!
