What's still worth it from Boden?

I used to love Boden, and it was certainly the focus of much MN worship. But like many others, I've lost my faith.

I think the prices have gone up and the quality down, although I sometimes find a gem. I still really like their swimwear and bought a lovely summer pencil skirt this week. My kids still wear their things, although DD is currently favouring Fat Face. On the other hand, their insistence of making all dresses out of either cheap t-shirt material or crackly polyester is deeply depressing. I really miss their lined cotton sundresses ( but not enough to lose a stone to fit back into my old ones).

Anything I'm missing that you still rate? Where can ex-Boden lovers ( the clothes, not the nippy little man) move on to?

their jeans dont fit me as i'm the wrong shape.....my waist is too big and hips too small, so i get bits of spare material hanging off my hips.

They still have the Riviera dress in loads of colours. In clearance!

aprilladvised - just had a peep....not that i need any more summer dresses. they have changed the style from the one i bought, its got loads more material now and a tie waste thing. i need to lose a little weight as it is. so more material will just make me look fatter. i did discover some new ones in the previous style on ebay, but fortunately they were in colours i already have. I think i got mine for about £20 in one of bodens clearance sales.....bit more pricey now
