Now, a hat and scarf to match??? Plain red or plain blue????

This post should probably be in style and beauty!

I like it but wouldnt put ds (2.5) in it - he gets confused for a girl more than enough as it is

I'm getting déjà vu. There was exactly the same thread about the same coat approx 12 months ago.

The general consensus was that it would be fine on a young boy, especially as the lining is blue.

I think it's the stars that make it look girly. I know there's no reason why a boy can't wear red or why a boy can't wear stars.

But I still think it looks like a girls coat.

deffo perfect for a little boy. I'd team it with blue scarf and hat. Or even green.

I don't think it's particularly girly, if I had a DS I would probably dress him in something similar. I agree with thisisyesterday, so many "boys" clothes are dull colours.

I'd put my boys in one although I'm a bit concerned that it doesn't look waterproof (an important consideration up North).

I like bright colours on small boys.

For me it´s the stars that make it "girly".

Lovely coat imo. I like the brown with stars too.

No no no

It isn't a girl's coat. If it was, it would be a bilious shade of puce with lilac fur and feathers edged around its sequinnned sparkly buterflies and fairy princesses motifs.

Obviously.

(love the coat, for either gender)
