I have been lured in by the Boden sale and . . .

[JonesTheSteam]

. . . have made my first ever purchases - a dress for DD and a top for DS.

Is this the top of a slippery slope? Will I now start spending vast amounts of money (that I don't have!!!) on Boden clothes!!!!!

Help!!!!!!!!

After hearing about Boden on mumsnet I made my first purchases this summer and think they are wonderful! I have traded up from Next (have you SEEN the new directory?!) and am now a convert. Have even placed an advance order for winter stock...

i buy a fair few items from boden for the kids. i am very impressed with their clothing. my first purchases were last summer, just a couple of skirts for dd1+2, and they still fit in them, and still look lovely, dd2 loves the pink and yellow polka skirt still and it gets worn at least once a week.

i save up now in preparation for the sales.

tho i did just get dd3 some stuff from next as wasnt much in her size in boden sale.

I agree some of the stuff is nice, but even at sale prices it's still far too expensive for kids clothes IMO.
