I challenge you to persuade me that this Boden skirt I've got today skirt really isn't revolting!

[kittywise]

I got the cocoa fruit cocktail thing

It is horrible isn't it? Shall I send it back?

er...

Who one arth would buy it at full prece?

Like 1970's wallpaper...

That's exactly what dp said.

There's a reason its so cheap...

gosh! I would send it back, deffo.
(sorry that's not much persuasion is it)

If you keep it, you'll be scowling every time you open your wardrobe or end up getting dressed in the dark

Return it.

Right, off to post office it is then

I know the answer , I just thought maybe it was a post ironic, expressionist skirt and I was missing the point

It seems there is no point!

I like it!

Sell it on Ebay in the summer, anything by Boden goes for silly money on Ebay. Bet you get at least £25 for it.

Oh no I take it back - I like the blue spots not the fruit salad bowl.

I bought in the summer time in the Thistle strip it was worst than hideous. It sort of stuck out at the sides, dh was phsl.

Ah, ebay, yes............... of course!

Oh, the link is to the spotty skirt, which is fairly inoffensive

The fruit salad bowl is revolting, remember seeing it in the catalogue and thinking who on earth would buy that ...

Holy crp that's, er, crp.

Well, interesting you should say that. I actuallly thought i was getting the blue stripey thing, which is also pretty shit, looks like a pair of curtains.

You see WHO would buy it even on ebay in the summer?

On the web site it is nearly sold out though.......

Keep, it will look fab this summer with flip flops and a strappy top , very holidayish.

oh dear- I bought the fruit salad one last summer in the sale- it's ok but wondering whether to ebay now?

I like it and it's the first Boden thing I've ever seen.

Can I admit that I very nearly bought it in the blue stripey material for this summer?
I think it could look nice

I got the dress in the same fabric and dh persuaded me to keep it. Wore it to work and got lots of positive comments from men .
I still cringe every time I see it in the wardrobe!

bodengroupie hmmm interesting......... How often have you worn it then?

I hate it, but DH likes it.

hmm, I like it. With a navy or a white t-shirt on warm summer day, just for nothing special though. Not for going out.
