Boden long chunky cardis - why so many left?

[Flight]

Am I missing something - have ordered but realised that there are plenty left in the navy and the turquoise. Why is this when they are really nice colours? Not hotch potchy or anything

Have also ordered a 'sassy' jersey dress and some nice yellow corduroys and a stripey yellow and burgundy cardi as well.

I have been going Boden mad tonite

Half of it will prob go back.

I love love love my long boden cardi - it's like being wrapped in a big blanky ! Enjoy !

That cardigan is hideous, that's why there are so many left.

I waaaaaaant one

Squonk here, jump in...that's it - nice and cosy in that pocket now, are you pet?

Good.

Bluestocking, why is it hideous? or are you talking about the stripey one, because I'm not totally convinced on that one yet but it was all they had left!

they do have pockets, right?

i need a navy cardi.....

because they make you look like a walking shag carpet.

Well, where do you want me to start? You will look as if you are wrapped up in a big blanky (to use Tomps's phrase) which isn't a look I go for. It has horrible big ribbing, and nasty plastic toggles. It will get a massive baggy seat, if you ever sit down in it, and I bet it bobbles like a bastard. And they're not fashionable any more, which doesn't necessary matter, but they're not a classic either.

God I'd better check

Otherwise I shall have problems stashing my lickle squonk.

Expat I might take that as a compliment. I don't mind being thought of as a walking shag-something, anyway

It will have to go back or nobody on mN will speak to me. Except my ever faithful little pet

Hmm it is a bit like a carpet...

How about the yellow trousers? Are they any cop?

Not having seen your legs, Flight, I can't really say. If you have thighs like Uma Thurman those yellow cords might be OK.

I can CAT you my legs blue

No on second thoughts...that would be creepy.

Link please to these cardis.

and while you're linking, you'd best show us the yellow trousers as well

No, please, no legs in my inbox! I think on women with normal (ie not Uma Thurman) legs, darker coloured trousers are more pleasing to the eye.

Cardis

Trousies

There you go. I'm not linking to the other one because I KNOW you'll all say it looks like someone was sick on it!

cardie looks nice and warm.

But take me out of the pocket before you go skiing - I'll stay by the fire in the lodge

Trousies also nice, but not sure about the yellow-ness of them.

Oh thankyou That was quick!

Yes not entirely convinced by yellowness myself but for £17 I'm not being fussy!

Could always dye them I suppose anyway.

For the record, not quite Uma level here but I am back to my 9st after 9 months so that is better than it was! I'm 5ft 7 (ish)

wow! sounds quite Uma-ish to me.

I'm more Dawn French than Uma

Nooooo certainly not Uma, she is something like 6ft 2 isn;t she, and 7 stone.

I like Dawn French.

you'll have to put a pic on your profile when your new clothes arrive, and we can all be judgey judgey

I have never bought any Boden stuff in my life - is it good?

I've only got one thing and it's fab (coat) it was about 30 quid so that's Ok. Ooh tell a lie, I've a few bits off ebay. Yes, nice quality, it gets slated on here now for going downhill but it's nice as far as i can tell

I'm used to topshop so, well...
