Peluche, or “plush”: it’s that particular kind of fake fur that stuffed animals are made from. And which £300 sweaters are made from, too.
We can’t decide whether this is a great response to a freezing winter, or whether it’s just a great (if expensive) way to dress as a giant teddy for Halloween.
Oh, OK, we can decide. But we want to know what you think too, so what say you to the £300 teddy suit? Tell us!

Feeling wolf-like, readers? Or perhaps you’re just feeling all “quirky” and “zany” and “OMG, kerrazzeee!” and want everyone to know it? Well, you’re in luck, because for just £28, you can buy these faux fur wolf ears from Topshop, and achieve both of those objectives at the same time.
Would you, though?
There’s no doubt that the trend for cutesy, “look, I’m pretending to be an animal!” style accessories has been growing over the past couple of years. Is that a good thing or a bad thing, though? What do you think? And does anyone else think £28 is just a little bit too much for something that looks a lot like part of a Halloween costume?

The Dress Like a Toddler Trend is a fashion movement which, although not particularly widespread, has still proved to be popular with some people. Some people who feel that adults should dress like toddlers, that is.
A large part of the Dress Like a Toddler Trend involves the wearing of adult onesies:
These guys think they look really cute, quirky, and, like, totally adorable. They don’t have girlfriends.
If they were in the comfort of their own home, it might be OK. (Unless, of course, they were hoping to get lucky that night, if you know what we mean). We’re not saying you can’t ever choose comfort over style, you see: we’re just saying that when you’re wearing the same clothes as your 11-month-old, you might want to reconsider…

“Dear Diary,
No one told me modelling would be like this. When I became a model, I thought it would be glamorous. I thought I’d be meeting beautiful people and wearing beautiful clothes, and now look at me! I’m dressed like an inmate from the Fashion Police jail! Or a lunatic asylum.”

We WERE going to make this the Ugly Harem Pant of the Day (joke!), but we know a lot of you are actually quite fond of the Dress Like a Toddler trend, when it’s applied to items of clothing designed to be worn in the privacy of your own home, so all we’re going to say about these Care Bear suits is that they exist, they’re $85.47 and they’re available from ASOS. And that we somehow don’t think this guy’s getting lucky if he wears this to bed tonight…
[Thanks to Colette for the report!]

There is a reason why “rompers” are most often associated with babies and toddlers.
This is that reason.
Actually, this Haute Hippie romper doesn’t make the model look like a toddler so much as it makes her look like someone who forgot to get dressed before leaving the house. We’d have no issue with this as sleepwear, or loungewear, but just in case you needed reminding, throwing a cardigan and some boots on doesn’t miraculously transform a romper into appropriate street attire. Does it?
We’re going to go with “no” as the answer to that question, but if you disagree, you can buy one from Shopbop, where they retail for $145.

The Dress Like a Toddler Trend strikes again!
Today, though, we’re not here to discuss whether or not adults should be wearing cuddly animals on their heads: we’re here to find out if you can guess which of the two items above is a designer hat, and which is from a high street chain. And while we’re on the subject, which one do you prefer, assuming you’d wear either of them?
Check back tomorrow for the answer!
[EDIT: or take a look below the jump for the answer, which has now been added!]
