Need 100% cotton white school blouse/shirt. Only one i can find is a John Lewis one that has 3 buttons on each cuff and is no good. Just want simple blouses/shirts for my daughter (age 8) but in cotton NOT polyester/cotton mix. Last year John Lewis did selection them but this year nothing! Even the decent shops (M&S etc) only do polyester - yuk!
Ordered some Truetex ones online but they are for high school ages and even their smallest is too big. HELP pleeeese....

I'm sure M&S do 100% cotton shirts.
ETA: looked online and it seems they only have the boys in the plain 3 pack, but they do have some girls http://www.marksandspencer.com/gp/product/B0028PYGL4/sr=1-7/qid=1251378592/ref=sr_1_7/278-6165137-2696369?ie=UTF8&node=&m=A2BO0OYVBKIQJM&keywords=&mnSBrand=core&size=9&rh=n%3A48125031&page=1

Goodness how did I miss these. I saw the short sleeved ones but I need long. The 3/4 sleeves would do though. I swear they were not on there when I looked or perhaps I only looked in store. Thanks a million!

New Look used to have some that were a very high percentage cotton (97%?), with a bit of stretch. I think I paid £2 each for them early in September when they went on sale. Contrary to my expectations they were excellent quality and great to iron. My daughter's excema was fine with them and both daughters wore them. I have only just sent them to a charity shop, but they still looked fantastic, easily the best school shirts I have ever bought for them.0

Ordered these in size 26. 28 and 30 for my talll 7 year old. They are not as sized - giant on her although she is 130cm tall. I was counting on these and they took ages to come which is why now searching at last minute! Thanks though.MTC NMP Membership #62 - made it back to size 12 after my children & I'm staying here!0
