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

This post should probably be in style and beauty!

I like it a lot and would buy it for one of my boys!

geordieminx · 18/10/2009 21:13

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.

nbee84 · 18/10/2009 21:16

I think it looks like a girls coat too.

LynetteScavo · 18/10/2009 21:16

I would get it in blue or brown for a boy.

ChilloHippi · 18/10/2009 21:17

girls coat

MrsJohnDeere · 18/10/2009 21:18

Girls coat imo.

LynetteScavo · 18/10/2009 21:18

Blimey, that site has some lovely clothes!

diddl · 18/10/2009 21:20

Girls coat!

thisisyesterday · 18/10/2009 21:22

aww, that is fab

why on earth is it a girls coat?
cos it's red??
cos it has stars?

because boys are onlyallowed brown/grey/sludge green????

thisisyesterday · 18/10/2009 21:24

i have banned myself from going into the toby tiger shop because i always want too much lol

nbee84 · 18/10/2009 21:28

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.

francaghostohollywood · 18/10/2009 21:29

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

sweetnitanitro · 18/10/2009 21:37

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.

MilkNoPoisonPlease · 18/10/2009 21:42

That is frigging lovely!

does it come in adult sizes...

MilkNoPoisonPlease · 18/10/2009 21:43

oh, YANBU!

golgi · 18/10/2009 21:47

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.

largeginandtonic · 18/10/2009 21:47

Perfect for a little boy!

PartOfTheHumphreysGroup · 18/10/2009 21:50

Buzzzzzzzz

diddl · 18/10/2009 21:54

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

TheDevilsKnickers0nMaHead · 19/10/2009 00:36

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

verylittlecarrot · 19/10/2009 00:43

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)

hanaboo · 19/10/2009 00:51

hmmmm girls imo but its just the stars and also would be fine for boys under two... don't ask me why lol jmo

pigletmania · 19/10/2009 00:52

Looks unisex to me

bruffin · 19/10/2009 07:33

Horrible and wouldn't have put my DS in it, nor my DD dor that.
