Recipe of the week

Carmenere's cinder toffee: sweet, sticky, made-in-five-minutes toffee squares that'll spark off a few 'yums' among the 'oohs' and 'aahs' of your little fireworks-watchers.

Very pleased with my first ever Boden order. I got the green sunflower sarong for £7.50, which I thought was very good, and the matching bag. Also the navy rosette cardigan, which I will look forward to wearing to work. I bought DS a Tshirt with an applique motorbike which is lovely and lots of socks.

I am now awaiting my second order grin
hooray it finally arrived. Im v impressed..ordered the ibiza kaftan and for it in both 12&14 as not sure on size.

Only tried on the 12 and its perfect. Could possibly do a 10 but think the 12 being loose would be better for hols...
So happy as I have finally lost 3 stone and am half stone off target. Feels nice to fit into lovely clothes again.smile.

Also got wellies for ds and top for dd.

The returns have started rolling in!
Mine arrived yesterday but I missed it and it got redelivered today.

Only got stuff for the DC. Kept it all.

The only thing I wanted for myself was out of stock, hoping it will come back in when the returns start rolling in.
im still waiting my stuff...ordered sunday and don't even think I have had a dispatched email..hmm.

Nothing unusuall imo, I never find boden quick with dispatching..hmm. Maybe I order popular items..? everything I ordered was in stock however..hmm

For a change there was nothing I really wanted for dd so managed to find a few things for myself and I'm keeping all of them. The rosette cardigan in brown is really lovely, as is the double layer tee and the flower stamp tankini.
Kept chic jacket (wearing it today, feel very Audrey Hepburn), halter next dress and textured jacket - they call it orange but it's a very bright red. Rest is going back when I can find someone to help me carry the box blush
I got the monkey t shirt for DS too - he loves it grin

I got the pink check mini which is really nice, with a polo shirt and a baby girls applique dress as a present for a friend's newborn.

All good stuff from Johnnie!

No sign of mine either. Ordered it on Friday as soon as the sale started and had an e-mail from Johnnie saying it had been sent that day.

Gosh that us quick, mine might come on Monday then. I had a poncetastic splurge and bought some bits from joules as well.

I love the photographer jacket - will be keeping that. Double layer dress is a nice fit but don't like the design/colour so going back. Not sure about the jeans. They fit but the denim seems a bit flimsy. Wish I'd ordered more stuff now but was ordering over the phone on my way to work and didn't have the catalogue with me.

largeish i think
i think they deisgn for women with large thighs slimmer waists and flat chests
oh
who are tall

hence it never fits me
That's impressive.

I've never bought from them before - how do their sizes compare for ladies things?

I got the rain coat in magenta but can't decide between a 12 and 14. The smaller size works for summer but I think I may need the bigger size for winter.

And a pair of shoes I'll probably send back.

Does anyone know if I can use a returns sticker from a previous order to avoid paying postage?

Wow, fantastic! I haven't had the despatch email yet but only put order in last night as I forgot about the sale until then.
Aaaaaaaaagh, had mine sent to work - hope they're not trying to deliver it today. I normally find if you order early on first day of sale, it comes on Tuesday so you should look gorgeous on holiday Freeasabird.

Wow! Hopefully mine will arrive today as well then.
Add message | Report | Contact poster By Sat 04-Jul-09 10:24:23
wow that IS quick!!!

ooh im getting all excited cos ive had an email from johnny saying it was despatched yesterday, i go away on friday so may be able to wear my 2 new dresses smile
How quick is that?!?

DD likes all her stuff although two t-shirts are going back as aged 13-14 is too tight for her (she only just turned 11).

Am off to try my new frocks on smile
