Ski wear stylish but cheap please

Welcome!

I am trying to imagine how ski wear can look stylish when your bum's in the air, but hey, who'll be watching? And I am not the most stylish MSE in the world either. But, to try and be helpful:

Lidl have ski wear on special from Monday 8th November. http://www.lidl.co.uk/ to have a look - click on the weekly specials. Can't vouch for the stylish but we bought some last year and it seemed good quality. We didn't keep it because there was room for two of my son inside it.

We ended up in Asda, which had good prices.

I also looked in TK Maxx, which is probably the place for style, if they have what you want.

Browsing charity shops is another possibility: my son almost ended up in a fetching pink and blue all-in one. ;D I'm too good to him really.

I got all my sons stuff from Decathlon for a school trip to Austria a year ago, it actually worked out cheaper than hiring from the school!! He's a tall lad and I got an all in one suit for under £40, bright red so he could be seen easily against the snow, gloves, hat, glasses, warm boots, socks and thermals - all came to under £80 - quite a bit of it was in the sale tho' - def worth a looky ;D

Just a thought - whilst all-in-one suits are warm, it is probably better in the long run to get separate jacket and bottoms - this way you can update/replace/lend/borrow in stages as fashions change, children grow etc. Also you can travel in the jacket (saves on luggage) and wear it in the evenings (in resort and at home) - and it's certainly much easier for sunbathing at lunchtime and for answering calls of nature!! :j

I think Matalan do ski wear aswell....

Lidl have also got some great ski wear, typical, I came back from Tignes last Wednesday and ended up spending quite a bit of my fleece and Lidl have one for a quarter of the price. The also have ski, ski boot and snowboard bags from £3.99.
