CHRISTMAS IS: Pretty in pink; ADVERTISEMENT FEATURE.

IF you want your little princess to be the belle of the ball this Christmas, then think pink...

The favourite colour of little girls of every age, pink for girls is as traditional as nursery rhymes and fairy tales... and there's nothing quite like a beautiful baby pink outfit to really bring out the 'aah' factor.

Cute, gorgeous and irresistably girlie, what more could you ask for?

Pink features highly in the Miss Scarlett range which launched at Allders last month.

It is a charming collection of the prettiest dresses and separates for little girls aged from six months to three years.

Adorable rose prints and butterfly appliques are sprinkled through the range if hues of lilac as well as pink, and only the softest corduroy, velvet and cotton are used to ensure that your little princess is comfortable and warm in her favourite clothes.

Pink is also one of the signature colours in the ranges from Next Childrenswear, Matalan and House of Fraser, making that special Christmas outfit a dream come true.
