Where to shop for dresses that are similar to Boden in style?

[Oh2beatsea]

I have just started a new job and I need to buy more dresses or skirts/ tops in bright colours. I'm trying to avoid too much black. I've checked Joules, White Stuff and Fat Face and I really like Boden styles / colours and I need size 20. Can anyone suggest anywhere else to look please?

Mistral, Lily and Me, Braintree, Nomad.

*Nomads Clothing, sorry.

Oh, also Ness, I spotted this in Keswick.

I think most of the one mentioned stop at an 18. Seasalt does 20s. As does Poetry and Wrap but their colours are subdued so maybe not so much your taste.

Boden's winter sale will start in@ 3weeks. Can you hang on until Then? Usually lots of bargains. Sainsburys sometimes have very similar things too.

House of fraser own brands like dickens and Jones do workwear with colour and print - or at least black alternatives like navy and burgundy - and go up to 20. And there'll probably be another 30% off event along soon. Might do as a decent and probably cheaper alternative to boden.

Oh you lot are just fab! Thank you so much - I've spent ages finding some new places to shop! And top tip re the Boden sale - it's the only time I can afford to shop there. Very grateful for all your help - thanks.

This might sound weird but the Edinburgh Woollen Mill do a range of Boden-esque clothing at a much cheaper price. I'm a 14 and wear a small fraction on there do I think you'd be fine. I can't remember if there was any workwear but it's worth a look.

Monsoon do up to a 22 and it's very wearable. I used to buy a lot of Boden but now get a lot from Monsoon.
