COATED IN CONFIDENCE


And why wouldn’t they be? With a coat this cool, good grades and a tight group of friends is a given. Nothing ruins a school day more than turning up soaking wet. Keep them dry and warm zipped up in a practical puffer complete with faux fur hood. Available in a wide range of colours from patent black to baby pink, both boys and girls will feel stylish on the school run.
