Forget white babygrows and knitted booties, now your tot can dress with attitude, thanks to these new tattoo sleeve T-shirts for babies and toddlers.

A mother of four has created a line of tops fitted with fake tattoo sleeves to broaden the sartorial options for parents who want their children to stand out from the crowd.

Tera, who lives in North Dakota, explains: "Having been a professional children's photographer for ten years, I've seen hundreds of kids come to my studio.”

While the kids are always fun and adorable, sometimes their clothes are boring and the same old thing over and over again. I simply wanted rockin' clothes, and I could never find them! So I decided to make my own."

Tera's baby clothing line, aptly named TotTude, features designs like hearts, flames, skulls, barbed wire and tribal tattoos stitched into black, grey and red t-shirts.

She is currently selling the quirky tattoo tees on her website, alongside bandanas, mohawk hoodies and other baby rocker accessories.

Not into skulls and flames? You can even customise your kids arms with softer slogans, like some ‘I love mum’ or ‘I love dad’ script.

They’ll easily be the coolest kid on the playground.
