Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.If you’re on the hunt for considered, stylish children’s clothes on the high street, you’ll be glad to know that Whistles has just launched its first-ever collection for kids.
The 31-piece strong line is inspired by the brand’s existing womenswear collections, so you can expect two-pieces, denim jackets, slogan jumpers and even shirts with oversized collars.
The debut range follows a long line of brands that have dipped their toes into the childrenswear market by launching mini-me collections, including the likes of M&S, Next, & Other Stories and Reformation.
Whistles collection aims to provide something for everyone. And according to the brand, each piece has been created with responsible materials, so not only are these clothes kind to little ones’s skin, but also the planet.
The capsule has been designed for those aged between three and nine, and range in price from £16 to £45. Having browsed the collection, we’ve curated a round-up of the pieces worth buying.
