Best&Less (Baby Berry) Baby Oversized Christmas Romper
A budget first-Christmas outfit: thick striped cotton, reindeer or gingerbread, snaps for nappy changes.

- Dark Red reindeer stripe
- Cream gingerbread stripe
Mums asked us for a Christmas outfit that photographs well without costing much for something worn a few times, and this Best&Less romper is the one we'd grab. It is 100% cotton in a red-and-white or cream stripe with an embroidered reindeer or gingerbread on the chest, cut extra roomy so it still fits on the day if bub has a growth spurt. Snaps at the inner leg mean a nappy change without undressing. Every review on the Best&Less site so far gives it five stars, mostly for the soft, thick fabric. The trade-offs: that thick cotton is warm for a hot Australian Christmas, it carries a high fire danger label so keep it away from candles and heaters and don't use it for sleep, the bigger sizes sell out early, and Best&Less online orders get mixed reviews. If you buy through our link, we may earn a small commission.

- Your baby's length on the size chart, not their age
- The fire danger label, and keep it out of the cot
