How do their sizes come up (am 5 '3, size 10-12, with a belly)
Any absolute must-haves? Any staples they do really well?

Want to browse before their sale starts.

agree - go for the 12 if in doubt. You will probably find the tops an ok length although they are short on taller people.

I like the 'favourite' knitwear - machine washable dontchaknow.

WaynettaSlob · 05/07/2007 15:50

thanking you kindly!

Don't even consider the knitwear if you have large norks.

MintyDixCharrington · 05/07/2007 15:57

mini boden only

the nicest things for women are the coats and boots - so not really great for summer shopping.

I like the skirts and their size 12s are perfect on me, whereas in most places 12s are a bit big.

Hmm, I think sizes on the big side. I tend to buy 8 from there whereas I may be 10 in other shops.

The odd thing is nice in the womens. NOt so much this year though.

I've got nice dresses from last summer but no fecking chance to wear them yet!!!

i like the coats in women. and the long sleeved v neck t shirt things. but, im 5 2 and i wish they were a bit longer.
mini boden is fantastic. wears really realy well, and your kids dont look like next clones. or tarts! (from shops i wont mentions)
