    Speaking from experience, at this age they want fashionable clothes which by their very nature, become unfashionable, & thus to a teenage mind, completely unwearable, within a very short space of time! So my advice is to buy very cheap (think disposable!). I would recommend you take her on a trip to your nearest big Primark, & give her free rein to buy what she wants (with some subtle parental guidance). With a budget of £50 she'll probably be able to buy more than she can carry! As she is quite small, it still might be worth looking at some of the older children's clothes too - they are often just smaller versions of the adult designs. Good Luck & Have Fun!
  • why don't you take her and one of her *fashionably dressed* friends on a shopping trip? Then you can ask her friend where she shops and go there?

    Or maybe your daughter doesn't want to be fashionable? I was a jeans and t shirt girl in my teens - til about 16/17.

  • Im 18, and id love my mum to have done what you are.
    Id agree with newlook, or maybe river island. Pick out some nice jeans, and underwear is always good to receive. If you see t shirts that you know are things she'd like, get them too. Then see how much is left, and get a next/new look giftcard for that amount. Put it with the clothes, and let her have that much for accessories to make the outfit her own. Im sure she'd love getting that.

    Just my two cents, though.
