Would you spend £250 on this?

[MrsBradleyCooper]

Boden

Even with all the beading, I'm just not sure it's worth it?

[TapselteerieO]

No, it isn't.

[electra]

The cost is relative to your income. But if you don't love it then no imo.

[MadameOvary]

Kerrrist that is awful. Per Una stylee.

[nancythursday]

It's pretty but not worth 250. Maybe wait for the sale? I can't see the detail very well on my phone, if it's beaded and lovely in rl then i'd probably buy it if it was half price.

[FetchezLaVache]

I don't like it at all at any price, sorry.

[purplepidjinawoollytangle]

If it were cashmere and contained an entire carat's worth of diamonds in the beading?

Still no.

£250 for a cotton cardi? Jog on, dearie!

[NinjaSlipper]

Looks like something my sister would get from primark.

[startail]

Agree with nigerslipper, if my 10 yearold DD bought it in Primark or H&M, but on a grown up for real money??????

[Tanyaaah]

Yuck!

[alwaysrunninginheels]

Not worth the money! No no no!

[SingingTunelessly]

Agree with electra re cost and income but it's nothing special is it? Just sort of meh.

[catsareevil]

Its a horrible thing. The model doesnt even look good in it.

[Floggingmolly]

It's crap. It would still be crap at £2.50.

i saw a lovely, 50s-style beaded cardigan in our local Kew. It's the one in Wandsworth and is the last, I believe, to be converted to "Kew159", or whatever. Consequently, they have most of the old Kew stock from all over the country - very, very marked down.

I think that if you're after a beaded cardigan that might be the place to start looking (give them a call ). The Kew one was not lined but also not leopard print (which I think might date, actually). I didn't nuy it because, although I love vintage and would happily wear a 50s-style cardi long after the Mad Men ship has sailed, I just thought: "Beading/handwash is not compatible with my lifestyle at the moment."

[animula]

D'oh. not Wandsworth - Wimbledon. I am a bit mixy-uppy with the "Ws"!

[fedupofnamechanging]

It's horrible. Sorry.

[MissVerinder]

No way!

[Grumpla]

HELL NO!

[LikeACandleButNotQuite]

No:
1)it is VASTLY ovrpriced
2) it is vile

[Pagwatch]

I love the stealth boasting of the reviewer...'the size 10 yes I am only a size 10 fits well over my 36inch chest see, see, size 10 yet 36 inch boobs and they are bloody perky even though I ticked the 45-55 age bracket
yours, Bet Lych

I have paid that for a cardigan. But cashmere and beautiful beading justified the price a bit.
£250 for tacky cotton? Nah.

[SquirtedPerfumeUpNoseInBoots]

No.

[JodieSwirlTapBuff]

Hell no. Talking about 'I saw you coming.'

Last season I paid £90 for a Jaeger silk and cashmere beaded sweater that was roughly a thousand times nicer. AND SILK/CASHMERE. And that had 'only' been about £180 (I think) full price

[Frizzbonce]

No no no. It will have to be dry cleaned, or the beading will come off.

And it's short so it won't even keep you warm. You can get nicer (cashmere) cardies at M&S.

[MrsBradleyCooper]

I had absolutely no intention of buying it, and don't particularly like it that much, but I just found it astonishing that Boden were selling a cardi for £250!

Was wondering what you all thought .
