Pekino

I recently went for a wee browse in Pekino, looking for a wee present for a friend’s new born boy.
As soon as you walk in, you are faced with a nicely presented store and very eager to help ladies, who pretty much jumped on us as soon as we got in! It was welcome though, as I didn’t really know what I was looking for and was grateful for the help!
Showing me round a selection of the gorgeous clothes and shoes they have in stock, one thing became quite apparent. I should have known really, that being in affluent Bothwell, the shop would be way above my budget. I was particularly taken by a pair of lovely suede Armani booties, which were simply stunning! At £75 though, not stunning enough, certainly not for a baby who would be growing out of them in a few weeks!
All of the kiddies clothes are designer, which you can tell from the minute you walk in. It is all so lovely, but most definitely for the better off amongst us. As we left, a family came in, the Primary School aged daughter wearing a pair of Chloe wellingtons that I could never afford, and the little boy looking through a rail of jumpers declaring that he would ‘love this one mummy’ no doubt with a hefty price tag!
Lovely if you can afford it, but otherwise, window shopping will have to do!
