Coats for Teen Boys – What A Nightmare (but we FOUND one!)

Clothing teenage boys is a standard parenting horror show of course – I’ve written recently about finding jeans to fit their weird man-child body shape, when they streak upwards but not outwards in their early teens. And then there’s the whole “I don’t like the way that looks/feels/has sleeves/has no hood/isn’t three sizes too big”. Total minefield. But then.. there’s The Coat Battle....

Where they were...

Perfect Autumn Essentials – Pretty Jeans & Comfy Boots from Next

Autumn is probably my favourite time of year to dress for – and my daughter appears to have inherited my enthusiasm. After months of a lacklustre approach to grabbing the nearest t-shirt and shorts, she’s suddenly re-organising her jumpers and insisting that she has ‘nothing to wear’. Well, to be fair, she’s probably grown at least 6″ since last November, and none of her leftover winter wardrobe...
