Cold couture

Way back when, I did not search out a new winter coat for Sag while I could find one on sale.  He loved his coat (bought on sale a couple of years ago at Hanna Andersson) and I thought he'd be able to get through this Winter with it, albeit under the wire.

Turns out, I was wrong.  (The kid is growing, growing, growing.)

It was the first week of December and I noticed his wrists were sticking out of the end of his coat sleeves by a lot.

So I hopped online looking for something in his favorite color, blue.  He has loved blue for as long as I can remember.  Bright blues.  (Gem loves red/orange/yellow.  I love pink/purple.  Cap loves black and white.)

I found something interesting and something straightforward (and navy).  Sag opted for interesting.  The coat arrived yesterday just as he was getting ready for common meal.  The temperature was starting to drop so he shrugged on the coat...and it looked great on him.
