Johnnie, get a fecking grip...

  1. We do not want big prints on everything
  1. 'Metropolitan' is so not your schtick. Please leave that to people who know how to do it properly. Like Reiss (if only they made fat girl sizes )
  1. And we DEFFO do not want to see clothes we might buy worn by our willowy daughters. The whole first section is two 12 year olds. It has never been that bad. I know it is aspirational, and I know it is rough economic times and all so diversification seems sensible but don't you think you should know your market? I am never going to buy something modelled by someone who looks like one of my students could be her mother. At least make look old enough to get pregnant.

Puhlease.

I'm always put off by the huge prints but really like some of the plain stuff. Same every season I ignore the 'loud' stuff and get the plain knitwear and the odd other bit.

The models made me feel old and I'm mid twenties!

I'm always horrified at the price of the shoes. In most shops the boots are priced similar to a coat but Boden seem to double up!

I can stretch to £80 for a nice coat but £160 for boots is too much. Unless they're uggs.

I generally hate Boden. It's out-dated, over priced tat. George at Asda is far more fashionable for god's sake! But for some reason i am drawn to this:
www.boden.co.uk/en-GB/Womens-Knitwear/Tank-Tops/WK500/Womens-Fun-Tank-Top.html

I know it's not even slightly on trend and that pains me . Don't think i will get it though.

Do his tank affairs usually make it to the sales or do they sell out before?
