The Leonie dress is super and the red top seems to be a lovely colour for you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden--mini-round-up#post-2028747 Mon, 20 May 2019 03:51:10 +0000 Diana 2028747@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay, thanks for the info! I’m also in the short torso/long legs camp so regular sounds like it would work for me too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden--mini-round-up#post-2028743 Mon, 20 May 2019 03:01:55 +0000 Christina F. 2028743@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Kate, the color is super pretty. </p> <p>lyn, no worries, it’s all staying. These white Frye booties are what I was wearing. </p> <p>Diana, I often need a petite since I am short on top, but I don’t default to it unless the dress has a structured waist. Since my legs are longer I often want the length of a regular size. So this is a regular size. </p> <p>Thanks shevia, Suz, Adriana, Opaline, and Jenni. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden--mini-round-up#post-2028708 Sun, 19 May 2019 22:06:55 +0000 Diana 2028708@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, it’s great to see the Lorna dress on someone my height! I was worried about the v neck being too low but it looks great on you! Did you get petite or regular?</p> <p>Love the watermelon top and the other dress too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden--mini-round-up#post-2028584 Sun, 19 May 2019 09:50:47 +0000 Jenni NZ 2028584@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The Leonie dress is so fabulous.

I love your outfit above! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden--mini-round-up#post-2028384 Sat, 18 May 2019 20:23:29 +0000 Kate 2028384@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The dresses are fab on you, and I particularly love that watermelon top. I have a sneaking fondness for boho lite items, though sadly I do not have any in in my closet right now. Hmm, I may have to check out that top. The color is just glorious on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden--mini-round-up#post-2028366 Sat, 18 May 2019 19:19:03 +0000 Christina F. 2028366@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cardiff girl, I’ve sent plenty of stuff back to Boden in my day! I don’t snap pics of all of it because I usually want to rush t back into the mail. Refunds take up to a month! I’ll try to snap the failures too since they are also helpful. </p> <p>Team wear on the top today, for a casual family gathering. Feeling very Cali boho today. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden--mini-round-up#post-2028347 Sat, 18 May 2019 17:27:27 +0000 Cardiff girl 2028347@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You have done well out of Boden.l m trying not to be too jealous,l have just ordered 3dresses from them ,looked appalling in 2 of them and too old in the other so back they went,whereas you look fantastic in yours ,especially the Lorna dress and I love the red top on you, that colour is gorgeous </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden--mini-round-up#post-2028307 Sat, 18 May 2019 15:33:33 +0000 Christina F. 2028307@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Bella, thank you. I think Angie was correct that it would work for a lot of folks. I have a similar one from Boden in black so I was pretty confident. </p> <p>kellygirl, thank you, and this Leonie dress is definitely a winner. I think it’s on sale now. The fabric is substantial. Boden pants are funny. They run a little large at my end of the size range, but for a summer pant that’s okay. I kept them on after trying them on last night, while I did chores and laundry. I hate wearing anything uncomfortable at home, so that was a good sign.</p> <p>Thanks, jessikams and Christie! I was expecting a muted red color but the watermelon is delightful so I don’t mind. My husband said it looked very “Mamas and the Papas,” but that’s a compliment from him. I do like boho for summer. </p> <p>Sarah, somewhere on the Boden website, one color of that top is styled with one color of those chinos. So it’s a valid thought. It may not be something that works on people of non-model size, but it will cost me nothing to try it!</p> <p>Sterling, thanks! And yes, my bathroom lighting sucks.... the bulb blew and all we had on hand was a pack of much dimmer bulbs. I’ll need to replace it at some point. The pants are a good, JFE casual summer option. They are comfy and light, which are my main criteria.</p> <p>Thanks, smittie! I’m trying to replace some of my wardrobe of lesser quality summer items, which are so easy to buy. Boden is a no brained and I always love much of their summer range, though I have trouble not shopping for my fantasy beach life.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden--mini-round-up#post-2028302 Sat, 18 May 2019 15:15:04 +0000 smittie 2028302@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>ALL items are so nice on you. All of these are figure flattering and lovely colours for summer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden--mini-round-up#post-2028281 Sat, 18 May 2019 14:35:11 +0000 Anonymous 2028281@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love Round Ups. &nbsp;This was no exception. &nbsp;Interesting read and very useful information. &nbsp;The WIWs were topping on the cake because I could see how items fit in real life.&nbsp;</p> <p>Numbers 1 and 2 are GORGEOUS on you. &nbsp;I can definitely see why you would be keeping them. &nbsp;It is hard for me to see the detailing on the olive pants, but ... hey OLIVE. &nbsp;They should be great going into summer. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden--mini-round-up#post-2028258 Sat, 18 May 2019 13:39:28 +0000 SarahD8 2028258@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh wow! The print on that first dress is amazing. I especially like the chinos too. Try the top with the chinos to de-boho it? Or would that be too much volume? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden--mini-round-up#post-2028223 Sat, 18 May 2019 12:17:46 +0000 ChristelJ 2028223@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So fun to see these IRL after admiring them online, and to see how great they look on you. Glad you will keep the watermelon top; it is stunning. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden--mini-round-up#post-2028188 Sat, 18 May 2019 10:03:35 +0000 Jessikams 2028188@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That bright pink top looks wonderful on you! Great fit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden--mini-round-up#post-2028117 Sat, 18 May 2019 01:45:29 +0000 kellygirl 2028117@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a great haul! Boden looks so fab on you. I love everything and I’ve been so tempted by the dresses. The leonie has been in my cart for awhile—ever since I returned the Maggie London. Love the green color on you. It looks very polished. The blue sundress is gorgeous too. Great wildcard and awesome chinos. I have such difficulty fitting pants otherwise I’d jump on the Boden wagon too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden--mini-round-up#post-2028106 Sat, 18 May 2019 00:49:52 +0000 bella 2028106@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, love love love the Lorna dress on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden--mini-round-up#post-2028095 Sat, 18 May 2019 00:06:06 +0000 Christina F. 2028095@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>As opposed to a Mini Boden round-up. *slaps knee*</p> <p>Ahem. Bad joke aside, I thought I’d review some recent Boden winners. Two are from Angie’s roundup this week and arrived lightning fast. </p> <p>1. Lorna dress - lightweight and a keeper. Beautiful pattern. This will replace some lesser summer causal dresses I’m passing on. Generally speaking, I am trying to replace some summer items with, well, nicer fabrics. Surprisingly, this is viscose! It feels nice though, and I’ll baby it in the wash. I can wear it to work with a Demi cami and a topper (always needed in the summer). This will mostly be casual though. And it covers bra straps!</p> <p>2. Ayla top - this color is watermelon IRL. I thought this might be s little too boho at first, but it grew on me and the husband gave the thumbs up too. I did size down per Angie’s suggestion. I think I might keep as a wildcard. </p> <p>3-4 Helena Cropped Chinos. I hemmed these two inches and they are just back from the tailor. Great light weight casual pants. I wish I wanted one of the other colors. I have enough navy pants and the rust color won’t work in my wardrobe. Olive is a core neutral for me, though. They are a tad roomy but for summer I think that’s fine. It gets very humid here. </p> <p>5 Bonus! I wore the Leonie dress recently (pre-haircut). The outfit is very Angie inspired. The only difference is that this is dressy, for me. Too warm for summer but great for spring. </p> <p>I am also expecting the white Rachel Chino shorts and will update when they arrive. White shorts are on my list. </p>
