Shooting Star Girls Hooded Jacket

For a girl who loves a bit of sparkle and wonder, the Shooting Star jacket is covered in stars, rainbow comet trails, dots and circles in bright yellow, blue and coral, all set against a bold black background. It is a fun, eye-catching alternative to the usual florals and pastels.

The black base makes every star and comet pop, and the design feels playful and a little magical without being over the top. A small heart-shaped detail on the zip pull adds a sweet finishing touch, and two side pockets give little hands somewhere to go. The full-length zip makes dressing quick on busy mornings.

For parents, this jacket is as practical as it is fun. It is windproof and waterproof, the lightweight build folds away easily for a school bag or nursery bag, and at £14.99 with free UK delivery, it is an easy and affordable way to add something a bit different to your little one’s wardrobe.

Colour and Design

The jacket comes in a bold black base, a striking colour choice that makes the bright star and comet print stand out clearly and also hides everyday marks better than a lighter colourway.

The all-over print features five-pointed stars, shooting comet trails with rainbow stripe detail, small dots and solid circles, scattered across the fabric in bright yellow, blue and coral. The mix of shapes and the rainbow detail on the comet trails gives the design plenty of visual interest, and the bold colours against the black background create real contrast and pop.

The print covers the hood, front and sleeves consistently, so the jacket looks coordinated whether the hood is up or down. A small heart-shaped pull on the zip adds a sweet detail that many younger children notice and enjoy.

Black works easily alongside almost any other colour already in a young girl’s wardrobe, including pink, white, denim and grey, making this an easy jacket to mix and match.

Product Specifications

Built for Everyday Wear

The outer shell is made from lightweight polyester that is windproof and waterproof, keeping your child comfortable on breezy days and through light rain without adding bulk. For more on why polyester is such a practical choice for kids outerwear, our guide on what you need to know about polyester covers durability and care in plain terms.

The soft inner lining sits comfortably against your child’s clothing without scratching or bunching, even during active play. The relaxed fit leaves enough room to layer a thin long-sleeve top or light jumper underneath on cooler days, without the jacket pulling or restricting movement.

The attached hood gives proper coverage on breezy or drizzly days, and the full-length zip runs right to the chin so there is no cold gap at the neck. The elasticated cuffs seal in warmth at the wrists, and the two side pockets give little hands somewhere to go, or somewhere to keep small treasures from a walk. The heart-shaped zip pull is a small detail that makes the zip easier for little hands to grab independently.

The jacket folds down flat for easy storage, making it simple to keep in a school bag, nursery bag or car for whenever the weather turns.

How to Layer This Jacket

The Shooting Star works across several seasons in the UK with the right layering underneath.

Spring and autumn: A long-sleeve cotton top or thin fleece underneath is all that is needed. The relaxed fit accommodates a layer comfortably without restricting movement.

Summer evenings: The lightweight build means it works well over a short-sleeve top for cooler summer evenings or breezy days out.

Cooler days: Layer a thin jumper underneath and the relaxed fit will still sit comfortably without pulling at the shoulders.

If you are also kitting out a boy at the same time, our boys vehicle print rain jacket and boys monster eyes hooded jacket are both worth a look.

Size Guide

Use the measurements below rather than relying on age alone. Children of the same age can vary significantly in height and build, and getting the right fit makes a real difference to comfort and coverage. If your child sits between two sizes, we recommend sizing up to allow room for layering and a little growing room.

All measurements are taken flat and given in centimetres. For guidance on measuring your child at home, our article on how to take measurements for children’s clothes walks through it step by step. Our full girls size guide is also available if you need additional reference.

Care Instructions

• Machine wash on a gentle cycle
• Wash with similar colours
• Do not bleach
• Hang to dry
• Do not tumble dry
• Do not iron directly onto the printed fabric

Avoid fabric softener, as it can reduce the water-repellent finish over time. For full guidance on washing and maintaining kids jackets so they last as long as possible, see our guide on how to care for kids jackets.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this jacket waterproof?

The Shooting Star has a lightweight outer shell that is windproof and waterproof, designed for everyday use in changeable UK weather including school runs, park trips and outdoor play. For sustained heavy rain, pairing it with waterproof trousers will give extra coverage.

What age range does this jacket cover?

It is available in five sizes covering ages 1 to 6 years. Because children vary in height and build, we always recommend matching your child’s chest and height measurements to the size chart rather than choosing by age alone.

Can I machine wash this jacket?

Yes. Machine wash on a gentle cycle with similar colours. Do not bleach, do not tumble dry, and do not iron directly onto the print. Hang to dry. Avoid fabric softener to preserve the water-repellent finish.

Does the hood stay in place?

Yes. The attached hood is shaped to sit snugly over the head and gives solid coverage. It is a fixed hood rather than a drawstring-adjustable one, so on very windy days a thin hat underneath can help keep it in position for younger toddlers.

Does this jacket have pockets?

Yes. The Shooting Star has two side front pockets, ideal for keeping little hands warm or holding small treasures collected on a walk.

Do I qualify for free delivery?

Yes. At £14.99, this jacket is above the £13 free UK delivery threshold so free standard shipping is applied automatically at checkout. Delivery typically takes 3 to 10 working days.

What if the size is wrong or it is not what I expected?

We offer a 30-day money back guarantee. Contact us within 30 days of receiving your order and we will arrange a return or exchange with no fuss.

Is there room to layer a jumper underneath?

Yes. The relaxed fit leaves comfortable room for a thin long-sleeve top or light jumper underneath without the jacket pulling or restricting movement. There is no need to size up just to layer.
