Just lost my Boden virginity

Wearing "floaty hotchpotch dress" over jeans (obv with thick cardigan thing over the top).

It's quite nice and obviously well made but rather a weird fit - tight over the boob area and shoulders and I'm hardly built like a trucker.

Without meaning to sound like a total pikey, I've had nicer things that were much, much cheaper - this dress was £49 in the sale.

Don't get me wrong, I do quite like it - otherwise I wouldn't be wearing it - but I really don't understand why people on mn make such a big deal about Boden.

something or other to do with aspirational lifestyle I think.

I too lost my boden virginity in their winter sale - a lovely cardigown which I haven't had off my back since (practically and obviously when at home) and a couple of things for dd

Been getting the catolgues for a couple of years though ...

catalogues are porn and their baby stuff is fab - got a few bits off ebay.
DS1 is too sturdy to fit into their jeans - a friend leant him a pair and they wouldn't do up.
We must be from peasant stock because Asda trousers are a perfect fit.
