I did that too.

littlerach · 25/02/2009 18:32

Yep, I did the same this morning.

poppy34 · 25/02/2009 18:32

is it just me or do they send you about 3/4 copies of the same frigging catalogue?

traceybath · 25/02/2009 18:33

The boys clothes are rubbish this time - so samey and everything seems to have skull and crossbones on.

Boring.

MaryAnnSingleton · 25/02/2009 18:37

exactly...think ds and I have both outgrown Boden

diedandgonetodevon · 25/02/2009 18:48

Mine's going the same way

beansontoast · 25/02/2009 19:41

i flicked through one at a friend's house.....and cant stop thinking about it [not quite embarrassed but def not proud emoticon]

Shhhh · 25/02/2009 20:27

I did the opposite lol!

I usually throw them in the bin having only ever bought a pair of cropped trousers for dd about 2 yrs ago..BUT everyone on mn has been raving about them recently so I thought "Hmm..I shall not throw into recycle bin and have a gander.."

I was not impressed..
Girls stuff is cute BUT the boys..OMG.... In fact I was going to start a thread asking why you all love boden lol!

I was considering getting ds 18-24mths stuff as its far cuter than the older boys...and although ds is 2 he's petite so may fit them ok..

I agree though, boys stuff is naff.

I bought some nice little girls stuff this season. But people don't wear Boden in France, so it is easier to get away with.

BonsoirAnna · 25/02/2009 20:50

And yes, your DS is too old for Boden MaryAnnSingleton . Bellerose is just perfect for him however

crokky · 25/02/2009 20:57

why don't you phone up and say please don't send me any more catalogues

(cutting down mail is something I am keen on!)

MaryAnnSingleton · 25/02/2009 21:28

yes, will do that

OP posts:
MaryAnnSingleton · 25/02/2009 21:33

BonsoirAnna - Bellerose appears to go up to 10, and he'll be 12 this year

I cannot imagine they ever sell any children's clothing over aged 9-10, I couldn't do it to my DD1 this will be our last "funky dress year"

MaryAnnSingleton · 26/02/2009 11:41

she'll be into the sassy stuff next !!!

i like the girls swim suits and one of the dresses but cost too much so not getting im afraid

what dd actually needs is a swimming hat and jacket - none of those in there

brimfull · 26/02/2009 13:16

I alwasy throw straight in recycling bin.
In fact was pleased to see they don't bother covering in plastic anymore so even easier!

Bellerose goes up to 16 - my DSSs (quite substantial nearly 14 and 11 year olds) both wear it a lot and it is one of my favourite brands for them.

I get about 4 or 5 copies each season. God knows why, they all go straight int he recycling too as I never buy via mail order I do it on the net.

MaryAnnSingleton · 26/02/2009 14:47

My DSSs also like Diesel, Replay, Energie, Abercrombie & Fitch, Jack Wills, Rare... all sadly v expensive but it's really hard to get nice boy teen stuff without spending a lot. I still like Bellerose best. Belgian Design Rules .
