to be curious to know how many of us are middle class mothers who wear Boden?

[Honeydragon]

I always enjoy the wide cross section of opinions, attitudes and experiences on Mumsnet. But other media seems keen to present Mumsnet as white middle class Boden adorned mothers.

I know I'm not, but how many of us are?

Sorry if this has been asked before, but couldn't find anything in the older threads.

Guilty!!

I'll get my clipboard.

nope not me

Nope -not me.

Not guilty! Not a single Boden item has ever entered my wardrobe.

Ok, so so far we have been unfairly stereotyped on a ratio of 3:2

I'm middle class but I don't wear Boden. (I have bought a few bits for the dc in the sale though.)

I never even knew what Boden was till I joined MN; nobody I know in RL ever mentions it.

this is like a zombie thread - you're all hiding out in a cupboard wearing boden

Middle class - yes (but grew up working class)
Mother - nope
Boden - nope

I'm neither

I'm neither. I'd never heard of boden till I came here, doesn't trade in my country.

I'm not sure if I am middle class but I would certainly appear to be middle class to the casual observer...

The "problem" with Boden is that it's so easy to wear; it fits; and it seems to last quite well. I hate myself for buying it but I can't find much else I like.

Well I am middle class and I do have some Boden items, but I'd say that I'm not as frumpy as that. Of course I actually thi k I'm quite cool, but I have a dd that makes it quite clear that I'm far from it.

Middle class, yep. Mother, yep. Wear Boden, no. I do buy some if their stuff for my DC, but never for myself (not the right shapes for my figure, plus all too samey).

I like to say I'm middle class! I only found out what Boden was recently.

I'm too young and too poor for boden, but i do buy the kids coats from there

Middle class: Yes
White: Yes
Boden-wearer: No (Dorothy Perkins mostly, it seems)
Mother: working on it

White, working class, mother of 1, PG due in May.

Dress almost exclusivley in Tesco clothes.

I too amnot sure if I am middle class or not BUT if I am I DO NOT wear Boden.

BUT NOT BODEN.

This isn't a anti Boden thread or a out yourself in shame at Boden wearing thread Belle

Between a friend in RL who uses Nethuns comments about Mumsnet and a few older posts on here, I began to ponder whether we are being sorely misrepresented by the media.

BODEN

Middle class - nope, although I'm a teacher so I suppose I'm semi-mc now.

Boden - I had two skirts - they were stolen (at different times) off my washing line and now I don't have any. I do think it's got worse and worse over the years, anyway.

Mother - yep.

Not me
