According to the founder and creative director of La Coqueta, Celia Muñoz, this is the date from which, on average, temperatures dropped below 10 °C for at least 30 days.
Muñoz says as adults, we can withstand cooler temperatures better than children, so we may not be aware when they need to wrap up.
"10 C might seem like ‘jumper and a light jacket’ weather, but for our little ones, it feels far colder, so preparing their winter wardrobes ahead of time is a priority."
Research into this was prompted because, as we all know, the weather is full of twists and turns nowadays, and it's important to be prepared rather than caught off guard on a frosty November morning without the right clothing for your children.
When it comes to the right fabrics, Muñoz suggests wool, as it is great for locking heat in while keeping the cold out, and therefore a cosy and comfortable option for winter. Though a little more expensive, the quality is more likely to last than its synthetically made counterpart.
It probably goes without saying, but don't forget the hat, gloves, and scarf!
