www.boden.co.uk/en-gb/lucinda-jersey-midi-dress-black-tropical-flamingo/sty-j0815-blk?cat=C1_S2_SH1800 - undecided between flamingo or navy (always my default position!). It looks so comfy!

@ExConstance

I've got the striped one, looks lovel with denim jacket or navy cardigan. The sizing is very generous, I've no business wearing a 12.
I hear you on the sizing, but it's a lifesaver for me. If it wasn't for Boden jersey dresses I don't know what I would wear as a generally smallish person with a mahoosive diastasic rectus and now an extra couple of stone all on the front only (not a pregnancy).

How about if you were choosing between navy and chintz?

I always go for the patterns and have actually started to consciously choose black and navy once in a while to have a few more classic options. Pattern makes me happy though! I would go with whichever is most different from the rest of your wardrobe.

I found the Boden code thread, no need to post a code for me. Smile

halftime thanks but I just don’t know
I think navy is more classic but the chintz looks lovely with a belt

Hoppinggreen · 17/04/2021 15:45

Maybe I could get both and say that’s my summer wardrobe sorted

I liked the chintz one more, but flamingo still lovely. Perhaps depends on skin complexion, not sure someone with very pale skin would look as good in flamingo as some of the other options.

Thanks for the post OP. I've been looking for a summer dress and I might treat myself to the navy one. Someone has posted a 25 percent off code in another thread.
