shield you eyes

It's knitted and printed (classic Boden crime). It's "sassy". And I think the yellow is particularly heinous.

this model is going to glass the next person to snigger

Smug fatcat model looks a bit like my husband actually, so I am rather taken with him.

snowleopard · 14/01/2009 15:55

Oh dear it's not actually your DH is it?

No, it isn't.

Blush ye not, I think he is lush and the beardy one you are swooning over looks like he needs a good wash and a hot meal to me.

Each to their own!

You lot have had me laughing out loud for the last few minutes!! ITA....the yellow dress is truly hideous and Johnnie is beyond pretentious. I did like this story though!

Quick thread hi-jack......Mrs SB hurry on over to Toast - my dress is back in stock and is now reduced to £60! Hurrah!!

MrsSeanBean · 14/01/2009 15:59

Oh wow - thank you so much Mrs Simm!!

Boden wearers of the world - defect to Toast (but not until I've got my dress!!)

Call the costume department for Balamory

Fimbo · 14/01/2009 16:02

This suits Caroline who is probably wearing an especially made size 0 (you have to look on page 19 of the catalogue to see the whole thing properly) but really could you imagine a size 20 wearing this ensemble?

God that site takes forever to load, shite looking clothes, shite loading website

Can't stand Boden

SheherazadetheGoat · 14/01/2009 16:06

i did have a good snigger at caroline. the guy holding the door open for her is saying 'are you aware a rabbit/sheep has shat right round your neck line?' and she is saying 'go and shove your architect shirt up your sassy ass'

VinegarTits · 14/01/2009 16:06

I want a link to the toast dress now

SheherazadetheGoat · 14/01/2009 16:08

i wish toast used models i think their clothes look dull as disembodied items floating in space.

Fimbo · 14/01/2009 16:08

LOL Sheheraz, oh just checked him out, he is so not a Kevin, Tarquin at the very least

VinegarTits · 14/01/2009 16:08

lol i can wait till you have completed your purchase

MrsSeanBean · 14/01/2009 16:09

Toast models, when used, look very ethereal and wan though... almost unhealthy.

princessmel · 14/01/2009 16:10

hehe love this thread. I know someone who loves saying she has Boden stuff for her or her dd, whenever she can squueze it nto th conversation.

She is sooo proud of it.

Some of it is nice but some not.. I think she'd love any of the stuff on this thread just because it's Boden.

Ooh get me, I'm such a btich!

MrsSeanBean · 14/01/2009 16:10

It's OK Vinegar - here you go. I wanted grey really but beggars can't be choosers.

SheherazadetheGoat · 14/01/2009 16:10

lol @ kevin maybe kevin has become trendy in a post modern ironic kind of way. maybe his real name is cosmos but decided kevin stood out more amoungst his 'set'

snowleopard · 14/01/2009 16:11

Caroline's beau looks like Anthony Worrall Thompson.

SheherazadetheGoat · 14/01/2009 16:12

yes anthony worral thompson after he has been rehydrated.

i do so love a good boden thread.

MrsSeanBean · 14/01/2009 16:13

Oh Sht Sht SH*T!! Toast dress has just sold out in my size which of you was it?

snowleopard · 14/01/2009 16:15

It wasn't me honest, but you could try a size smaller - their sizes are huge IME.

OP posts:
MrsSeanBean · 14/01/2009 16:24

Phew, it's OK, my size just suddenly magically reappeared. I was joking earlier, but it seems Toast sale stock is very low and yoyo-ing wildly!

VinegarTits · 14/01/2009 16:38

It wasnt me! its not really my style, im too fat for a dress like that, very Audrey Hepburn though, nice.
