My Mummy Winter Wardrobe: Coats
The weather outside is frightful
Is it just me or do us parents always put ourselves last?
Even if that means us freezing our shudda kudda wudda’s off in the freezing cold because we would rather we spent our money on our kids!
Yeah me too.
Well this week that changed and after having blue lips( nearly said Nips) and numbs hands for one week too long, I endeavoured to buy myself a new coat.
That being said I need help from you to decide.
I’ve narrowed it down to 2 coats for you from Esprit and a few reasons why I might choose them-
I love that this is
- Super long
- Dark navy so you cannot see the childs muck from wellies and boogies all over it
- Fur like trim on the hood
- Padded that reminds me of an oldish style puffa I used to have
- Belt to nip in my once there waist
- Pockets to hide snotty tissues, dummies and snacks for melt downs.
Find this coat here.
Or the second choice is this-
- Looks lighter weight so when my child runs down the road I wont lose 2 stone of sweat chasing him
- Nice pale in colour and will match my bathoom tiles lol
- Same fur type hood which I love and have leaned towards on coats for years
- Slightly flared
- Soft Wool blend
This coat can be found here
Choices choices ladies.
Which would you pick with a messy toddler and an issue with always being too hot?

I love them both, I would automatically go with the darker one because I wouldn’t keep the light one clean haha. I ordered one from Brakeburn the other day x

I love a good winter coat. I like the dark navy one with the fur trim looks super cosy x

I do like the coat from Esprit. I am trying to find the perfect coat for me as I got one but it was too small so I am looking for a larger one in a style I like.

I think for practical reasons I’d say I prefer the second one x

I would go for the longer one and like you say the darker colour is perfect for hiding mud!

I personally love the top one! Looks very cosy and like you’ll be all wrapped up warm for winter!

I’ve just bought a coat that is virtually identical to the first one – lovely and cosy for the winter!

I am always so cold, so for me it would have to be the down quilted navy coat every time!!

Those are some really stylish looking coats! I ever think to get anything nice looking like that; I just opt for practical weatherproof stuff. I should treat myself this Christmas! 🙂
