It’s a boy thing

It’s often said that little girls get all the cute clothes and what’s on offer for boys isn’t as interesting but there are some areas where I beg to differ. It may just be that the grass (or rather, clothes peg) seems greener but when it comes to shoes, there’s only so much diamanté, appliqué and pink and purple a mother can take.
While on the hunt for a plain pair of boots – after ordering a simple tan (boys) pair  in our local One Small Step One Giant Leap, because Coco Lily really does need two pairs, honest – we had a browse in the usual high street shops for a second pair. Sequin after sequin and embroidery galore, we finally spotted a dark grey pair of UGG-style boots in Next (no.3 below).
They may technically be for boys, but as there were a few positioned amongst the pink boots as well, I didn’t feel quite so bad about choosing yet another boys style for my little girl!

 

So thank you, Next, for mixing it up a bit with your retail space. And now after browsing the rest of the ‘boys’ styles online I’m trying to justify a third pair (the plum desert boots to be precise!).

Here’s the cocomama pick of the best Next kids boots, perfect for boys or girls.

It's a boy thing

1. Mink Brogue Boot, 2. Desert Boots, 3. Grey Knit Suede Boot, 4. Navy Knit Suede Boot, 5. Tan Strap Boots, 6. Desert Boots

If you’re wondering if number 3 are any good, they’re comfy, cosy and easy to pull on and Coco Lily still gets excited to wear them even though she’s worn them nearly every day! And at £18, they’re certainly more purse-friendly than their branded sheepskin counterparts.  Please, please Next, do this style again next year!

Where have you shopped for girls or boys boots this Winter?
