Well weekender jeans arrived today which I ordered first. Just had an email to confirm urban skinny jeans are on their way. I ordered these last so my coatigan is the one that got cancelled.

Gypsy - was the stripey cashmere true to size?

plasticbanana · 17/02/2014 11:08

Thanks so much OP!
My three small orders are all dispatched Smile

alemci · 17/02/2014 11:15

My 3 jumpers are dispatched. I ordered a fairisle cardigan in pinks, cable jumper in turquoise and a ribbed jumper in deep turquoise. May give them to my dds if I don't like them. Such good prices.

Still upset about my boots and even if I had managed to buy that bag in theory, I wonder if it would not have been supplied.

I saw one on ebay for £79.

To me it seems unethical to buy loads to sell on ebay. I would rather use it or send it back. I do sell Boden on ebay but after I have worn it.

GypsyFloss · 17/02/2014 12:09

Serendipity I'm an 8 with broad shoulders and ordered a 10 . It's neat around my top but a bit baggy around my waist, which is fine by me. So yes I think, to answer your question. I think I'm just not a boden shape.

SerendipityAlways · 17/02/2014 12:18

thanks Gypsy! Ordered the 10 so hope it wont be too snug...

IamInvisible · 17/02/2014 12:44

Mine is still bloody processing!Hmm

IamInvisible · 17/02/2014 12:56

I've just phoned for an update. I am only getting my shoes, the bloke on the phone couldn't have cared less tbh.

Seriously pissed off! Angry

Katz · 17/02/2014 13:19

my order has finally been dispatched - well some of it. I ordered the embellished dress, coatigan, maxi dress and some childrens shoes - which have all been sent plus a random thing in my basket for free which is 'Mini Design Your Own Cover'. My parka was cancelled and they are still processing the Westbourne Dress.

kaumana · 17/02/2014 14:38

I've just had a look on the Boden site. The striped cashmere crew neck which was cxd from my order is showing limited availability in my size. Though at over £100.

I'm confused...

GypsyFloss · 17/02/2014 14:52

Both mine have gone back this afternoon. After a second trying on session I've decided that pink stripe cashmere just shrinks my tits and widens my hips, which is not really the look I'm aiming for!

So there'll be 2 size 10's back in stock in the next day or two if anyone is still looking.

KatieScarlett2833 · 17/02/2014 15:37

All of mine have been despatched Shock

IamInvisible · 17/02/2014 15:44

You couldn't actually make any of this up.

I put a post on Fb saying I wasn't happy and they asked me to email, so I did. As a result of that email, I'm now receiving all of my order, plus a free gift, apart from the jumper they cancelled on Saturday!

It makes no sense whatsoever!Confused

MrsCocoa · 17/02/2014 15:50

I ordered some bits on Sunday (had assumed system problems were fixed as very little was left showing in stock). Logged on today to find a dress had been cancelled, but checked Boden site, and it was still showing in stock. I phoned, and they put the order back through, but they weren't sure what had happened. Everything else is showing as processing - apparently still in the warehouse and waiting to be picked.

slalomsuki · 17/02/2014 16:00

I have a pair of the Leopard boots in a size 40 if anyone wants them before I send them back. PM me and I will send at cost plus postage.

HelloBoys · 17/02/2014 16:23

Got boots and have to say what a bargain!

I was worried about the stripes on the cashmere jumpers too (unflattering?) and not keen on iris. In fact the pink colorblock I'd have ordered at bargain prices.

SmileAndNod · 17/02/2014 16:39

Well I did email, and just received an apology for their technical issues - nothing more. I guess if they don't have the items they can't send it, but the fact that the boots were showing in stock when I ordered (and for a while after) is somewhat annoying. So of the things that have arrived, I'm keeping the two cashmere jumpers - which I ordered before Christmas but couldn't justify the cost, a pack of tights (exciting) and undecided about the westbourne sweater as it's quite roomy. But such a bargain and may be ok for slouching days. Parcel number 2 just arrived, that's only a t shirt for dd though!

CalamityJones · 17/02/2014 16:44

Have pm'd you, slalomsuki

Both my parcels arrived. The driving shoes are too tight and hurt, so are going back. The 2 pairs of cords are OK not an absolute perfect fit, a bit baggy round the hips but I will keep for under £10 because they are absolutely fine with a longish top and look quite nice. The crinkle shirt is quite muted (better than I thought it would be) and a good fit and again fine for £9.

I wouldn't have paid full price or 20% off for any of it though.

A mustard Isabel jumper is on its way, It sounds a bit big and baggy but we will see.

Mine has all arrived too. Love the cashmere jumpers, leopard boots and leopard clutch bag but undecided about boulevard tunic dresses and bistro crop trousers - need to try on in daylight I think.

Lighthousekeeping · 17/02/2014 21:07

I was at work and missed the delivery!

Elsiequadrille · 17/02/2014 21:16

Mine arrived, nothing missing. I'm quite happy with my order, though the fairisle cardigan is a little on the garish side.

mcgilly · 17/02/2014 21:37

15 out of 15 items despatched so I'm a lucky one.
It's funny marketing though as now I will be trained to expect an 80 % discount all the time. I couldn't possibly pay the " full price" but is that part of their strategy I wonder.

alemci · 17/02/2014 21:42

is that the pink fairisle?

HappyAsEyeAm · 17/02/2014 21:42

My £15 wool skater skirt in green arrived today. I bought the same size as the wool skater skirt that I currently have in red. 10 Regular. But in green, it is bigger and longer! Bloody hell. Not a bargain, as of course they don't have it in size 8 anymore Hmm
