Finding a coat that fits over a blazer is difficult.

that's the beauty of having 17 year old son, goes out in a t-shirt whatever the weather..........

The battles I had trying to get DS to wear a jacket over his blazer........! Even when it snowed or when it is tipping down with rain, 'Awwwww Mum, I don't need a coat'. When threatened he said, 'I'll take it - but I'm not wearing it'

Next year I will just let him freeze !

Not had this problem until now - regulation Navy duffel and beanie hat. No problem - sorted. Ugh not looking forward to this as also I, obviously, won't be around to sort him out. Oh well suppose it is a growing up process for both of us and I won't be the one with pneumonia!

Oh so wrong!!

DD wiuld have done this all winter had I let her. But, being the lovely mum that I am, I hunted high and low (and I mean hunted high and low!) to find a coat which would fit over her blazer and which would be acceptable to her and the school. I'm sure she loves me for it really
