Back to school with Get the Label – Mummascribbles

I know there are many parents out there preparing themselves for the back to school chaos. Some of you may be completely prepared, some of you may be completely panicked having not yet bought a single pair of grey trousers or a single item of stationery. I remember as a child, the back to school being mega fun. It was a chance to get a brand new school bag, a brand new pair of shoes and brand new stationery. I loved going back to school, although after a week I was always ready for the next set of holidays!

And so, in just a few days, some of you will be waving your children off at the school gate, maybe for the first time! We still have two years until Zach starts school and already I feel a bit emotional at the thought of him being a school pupil. He already asks to go to school. Whenever we pass one he asks what it is and when I tell him, he tells me he wants to go. I then explain that it’s a couple of years away but he says he wants to go now! I think it’s from knowing his cousin goes to school and from seeing the children having fun in the playground in the school behind our house.

So, we are two years away and I did explain this to the lovely people at Get the Label when they asked if I’d like to write a back to school post. It got me thinking though, that we do have a new milestone approaching as Zach will be moving up to the pre-school class in nursery! And with a new classroom move at the start of autumn, brings a need for a new winter coat and new big boy shoes. I mean he needs to make a good impression in his new class doesn’t he?! So when Get the Label offered me a choice of their products to review, these two things are exactly what I chose.

Get the Label is a website that sells discount designer clothing for adults and children and right now they have a whole back to school section. They are currently running a competition to win a back to school goody pack worth up to £200 that is ending real soon so get in quick! Winners are announced on Wednesday 2nd September.

Firstly, I was incredibly impressed with their delivery. They offer it for free with a code if you spend over £40 and my package was sent next day delivery which only costs £1.

Obviously with ordering online, you can’t see exactly what they look like but upon opening, I wasn’t disappointed and the other half was dead impressed too!

The Bench infant boys Able jacket is absolutely gorgeous! With its grey stitching, printed logo on the front and back, fully fleece lined inside and an all important hood, it is a perfect winter coat.

I went for a slightly larger size of 3-4 as he won’t need it until the autumn but it already fits really well with room to grow. Really impressed and he thinks he looks super cool!

Then onto the footwear. I love Kickers, I wore kickers to school myself and when I saw these beauties, I had to get them!

Now, boots as we all know aren’t the easiest thing to get on a toddlers feet – especially mine. I remember him being in tears when we tried to get wellies on him and unfortunately this happened with these! It’ll be fine though, he’ll get used to it and they’ll loosen up a bit to make it easier! They are completely elasticated too which is great. Despite the tears, they are gorgeous.

I got them in a size 9 so he could grow into them for the winter and they’ll be perfect for it! We just have to get him used to getting them on without crying!

I am so impressed with these items and there are so many other gorgeous products to choose from to make your little one look as cool as this in the playground!
