Pixel babygros from Zutano: subtle they ain't

We all have friends who have mastered the art of dressing their children in subtle, muted colours which somehow shrug off the stains. That art has remained a mystery to me. Still, make a virtue out of a necessity, and all that: the answer is obviously to go wild with colour.

Computer geeks may enjoy the fact that the depicted babygrows here from Zutano are named 'Pixel'. Your child might gain a private satisfaction from looking a little like Elmer the Elephant. And all parents will appreciate that a busy pattern like this will disguise a multitude of stains.

Oh, and if this one doesn't appeal, but you like the whole 'splurge of colour' look in theory, check out the rest of the range. Subtlety is entirely absent.
