I saw a massive bargain in TK Maxx this evening - beautiful winter coat, pink, wool, single breasted, Boden. Reduced from £189 to £60. But it pulled over the bust so I had to leave it Sad.

WOE!

I've never seen boden stuff in tk maxx

Nor me, ours doesn't seem to get that kind of label very often...

Wonder if it was the same one I tried - a coral pink, but was belted and a bit too A line for me, which made it pull or in the bigger size made me look like a sack tied up

no room to move the buttons?

I ordered a lovely wool jacket last week. It looked shit. I ordered two more in a size either way and they too looked shit. I was most disappointed. It looked lovely in the picture but on me it did indeed look like a sack tied up. Harrumph.

MsA is this the blue or pink woolen Boden coat?

MsAdorabelleDearheartVonLipwig · 04/11/2015 11:09

Oops, sorry, no, it wasn't Boden. Was just sympathising at the unfairness of it all. Grin

There's Boden stuff on the TK Maxx website right now.

VinoEsmeralda · 04/11/2015 11:27

Thank Ms A. I ordered a blue woolen coat from Boden and didnt even try it on, it looked like an expensive potato sack however the reviews online seem to think its a great coat...

I ordered a boden Coat last year, I looked like kate middleton's fat older cousin on acid

VinoEsmeralda · 04/11/2015 11:39

hahaha, it rather hit and miss with Boden isnt it? Sizing is all over the place too. Im dress size 8 ( no way) and just order a top in a ten and I look like a michelin women as its soo tight...

Armamai - no there wasn't much room for button moving, which were popper-closures but with big buttons on the front.

I'm watching a Bravissimo one on eBay now instead...boob room!
