Oh thankyou, I like the tweed coat.

Someone please come and tell me if this pattern is horrible. I kind of like it but I have notoriously bad taste so I might just play it safe with the black one

I like it

I like the black better - it looks to be quite a short coat and I think the check could be a bit overwhelming ...

I think either the aqua or the mulberry check. Black is so predictable for winter. I bought a bright magenta coat from Paul Smith 2 years ago and love the way it stands out from a sea of black and grey winter coats in the UK

I like it too, and the aqua one. I agree with TheRealMrsJohnSimm about black being so predictable.

I love that coat!!!

I ordered a green bunny cardi for my dd's birthday! She is going to love it!
Nothing much else because Boden have taken all of my money already!

I've just ordered the green bunny cardi too, and the blue monster T shirt (my daughter has strange taste )

I bought the green monster t-shirt (with another bunny)!
They are quite cute and I have gotten a few for my ds as well.

Ordered PJ's for ds - will put them away for his birthday. Boden is going to cause a divorce - hide the bank statements.

Johnnie has just re-stocked almost everything in the sale! I even got the black maxi-dress that's been out of stock for ever - they had it in ALL SIZES! (Not now though).

I am annoyed with Boden...

I reviewed the cord trousers and they have not put my review up. It was critical , mainly on the fit and price.

So don't believe all you read- or don't read!

Oooh Mumsnut, thanks for the heads up on the sale restock, I have just bought the stripey blue washed hoody (and a few other things) I've wanted for ages!!

Cannot decide if this is lovely or frumpy:

Fairymum- It's ok but bordering on frumpy- I think that straight or A line skirts or inverted pleat look less frumpy than flippy.

I had a very similar one to that from Boden and only wore it for 1 season then it went onto Ebay.

Agree A-line is the way forward

talking of frumpy i have ordered quite a lot from Boden in the last few weeks and had not really been in any other clothes shops until today went into Matalan and was really quite surprised at some of the clothes, they were really nice and very cheap they seemed to make my Boden purchases look really quite frumpy and overpriced which is annoying as i thought i had found my "style" at long last all mixed up again

Hi, I agree with the point made regarding reviews. I always review my purchases and have noticed that if they arent glowing they dont appear!!! so, dont believe all you read and, quite frankly Im finding the Boden sizing and quality for the price is not what it used to be. I dont think I am being tight. Does anyone agree that it has got really expensive?
