Fill In The Blank: These Vintage Floral Print Cute Cocoon Coat By Monnalisa Are So................................................................




OR


I have a slight problem sometimes with kids clothes been described as vintage, probably because I have not yet come across any parents hunting vintage kids clothes unlike adults clothes which can be purchased as vintage. 

But this monnalisa floral print coat does look vintage in a bad way. The pattern looks too old like a pattern usually used in making curtains in the 70's and 80's. But I guess this is simply my own opinion. That's my reason for adding this so called vintage coat under the 'fill in the blank' category. Usually I stick with my posting of 'fill in the blank' once a week, but can't help but to notice this ageing looking kid's coat that has been designed with kids in mind. 

Don't you agree with me that this coat is kind of ageing for kids?

Fill In The Blank: This Large Teddy Bib By Tartine et Chocolat Are So .........................................................





For those with experience feeding babies or older babies, you would all agree that it's hard enough as it is to get your makeshift bibs to stay in one particular position. On that note, can you really see this elasticated neck and arm strap working? What about if the baby is struggling as you are feeding him or her and somehow manages to wriggle its arm from the arm strap? If that was to some happen, it has defeated the purpose of the bib.

I personally believe that it would have been more useful if it has a velcro straps towards the back rather than the elasticated arm strap. So what you do you think?
