Spring may be on the way, but for the moment Leo and I are
still living in our warm winter coats trying to avoid the all too familiar
British chill. In recent weeks Leo has been sent a rather beautiful Winter
Catimini coat to review from Petit Fashion.
I picked it out from among all of the other gorgeous coats
that Petit Fashion retail, because this one was just Leo, and I knew as soon as
I saw it that he would look the bee’s knees in it. We opted to ge the Catimini boys navy down jacket in age 4 so that it could see Leo through next Winter as
well, as in reality the weather will be warming up very soon and I wanted to
make sure that he would get the most possible wear out of it.
The jacket features faux leather detailing over the
shoulders, two side pockets for all the little items that Leo decides to store
away, a zip fastening and a lovely fleece lining to keep him toasty and warm.
The coat is filled with 70% down and 30% feather, so this coat really is going
to be great over the colder months.
As soon as the jacket arrived I invited Leo to come and have
a look, he wanted to wear it right away. We weren’t actually going anywhere at
that moment in time, in fact it was almost bedtime, but Leo wanted to wear it
there and then! So Leo modeled his new coat for us and strutted back and forth
around the lounge. Then the next day he decided he was going to have to wear it
to nursery to show all of his friends, and I may have been a bit precious
here.. But because it is such a beautiful coat, and one that I want him to be
able to wear over the coming year.. I insisted he wear his old coat and keep
his special coat at home so that it didn't get damaged at school.
Our first trip out with the Catimini was when the car
decided to start making a funny noise, so armed with Leo’s new coat and
stroller we dropped the car off at the garage and decided to stroll into town
and spend the day in the park and feeding the ducks. Getting Leo out of the car
and ready for our stroll, I instructed him to put on his coat and he instantly
exclaimed ‘I love my warm coat Mummy!’ and happily assisted me with everything
that needed to be done before we left the car. It was a sunny but chilly day
and I wanted to make sure that Leo was going to be warm enough, especially as
he was strapped into the buggy for the walk in.
Of course Leo kept telling me how warm he was, and I only
had to place my finger inside his sleeve to know that there was absolutely no
way he was feeling cold. He was so warm even just sitting in the buggy. It was
about a 25 minute walk to the park from the garage and when we were there, Leo
was up and out ready to enjoy his time there. We fed the ducks, played on the
swings and of course the tunnel slide!
It was a beautiful day all be it a cold one, and although I
found it a little chilly, Leo in his rather snazzy warm coat didn’t seem to
notice or mind in the slightest.
The Catimini Boys Down Jacket is from Petit Fashion and is
currently on offer at £55.00 down from £122.00. The sizes are fair and Leo at 3
is happily wearing a size 4, and he will continue to get lots of wear out of
this next winter. Leo and myself are very pleased with the coat and the overall
quality.
Doesn’t he look super?
