Does the Boden ruched skirt look shit on anyone else?

[afghanda]

I had high hopes. I love it - it's so thick and well made. And it looks amazing on me from just below the waist down - really flattering. My bum and legs look amazing. But I cannot find anything to wear on top that looks good with it. I am a size 12-14 hourglass, carrying a little more weight around the middle than I usually life. Anything tight on top shows bulges, so that's out. But loose t-shirts and jumpers look really unflattering too and hang badly with it. I think this might be because I have large boobs. Anyone else having the same problem? I really like it but think it's going to have to go back :-(

I found myself ice skating in mine last weekend! I promised t take the kids somewhere but 1st choice place was full, so we went to the ice skating rink instead, I really had not planned to go.

It was fine in terms of movement!

I have bought the size 8 long in the black and the size 10 long in the stripy. It's all they had yesterday and then today they have all sizes back in.

I think I will prefer the long though but not sure on sizing. Last time I ordered something from Boden in an 8 it was big. What is the sizing like with this skirt? I don't want muffin top

just realised from the pic it is completely straight up and down

so it won't work for me, it'll gape at the waist or be too snug on the hips

love - there is a long thread on it on the clothes chat on s and b with a couple of ideas

ganoush - its stretch

It makes me look like I have the largest arse in the world. It's going back. Too big on the waist and just looks shit on me. Too many curves.
