I just cant justify the prices though once you include the conversion to AUD and the shipping. But it has inspired me to try to get a bit crafy and crack out the sewing machine again, I'm sure I could try to duplicate some of those lovelies. Shame there isnt a store in Australia like this! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-sales-the-one-that-got-away#post-179511 Sun, 04 Jul 2010 21:09:50 +0000 lynne 179511@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Come now, tam, doesn't the site show some cute new tops to go with those skirts? I'm staying away from it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-sales-the-one-that-got-away#post-179508 Sun, 04 Jul 2010 21:04:07 +0000 yublocka 179508@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hehe Frances checked just then....no luck. But I will persist. Some of the new season skirts are cute I agree, but I'd have no idea what tops to wear them with. Doh!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-sales-the-one-that-got-away#post-179474 Sun, 04 Jul 2010 17:40:37 +0000 Frances 179474@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tam, I checked the USA sale site this morning and an out-of-stock-in-my-size dress I was eyeing b/f the sale is suddenly in stock again, and still on sale! So seriously, be patient, keep the faith, and check their website frequently...</p> <p>Traci, thanks for posting the link to the fall sneak peak. Though I'm reluctant to look at cold weather clothing right now, I'm already in love with the Printed Black Mini in black tulip. Sigh...I'm becoming so addicted to patterns... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-sales-the-one-that-got-away#post-179435 Sun, 04 Jul 2010 15:00:02 +0000 lynne 179435@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>tam, would it help to know that I've only kept about half of the Boden dresses I've ordered? It would probably fit funny on you. Any better? If not, I hope it pops up again. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-sales-the-one-that-got-away#post-179398 Sun, 04 Jul 2010 11:44:34 +0000 yublocka 179398@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Maya I'm glad you like some of the things. As for me I will have to sit this Boden season out. My wallet will be happy with this at least. (Though I'm gonna keep stalking that original dress just in case </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-sales-the-one-that-got-away#post-179384 Sun, 04 Jul 2010 09:30:19 +0000 shirley thurgood 179384@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi don't know if this helps but I have a few Boden dresses and and on some i've had to size down. As this is quite a loose style might be worth a go. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-sales-the-one-that-got-away#post-179369 Sun, 04 Jul 2010 06:05:59 +0000 AJ 179369@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tam - If that dress doesn't pop back up in your size....um....OK, it was too dull for fabulous you! : )</p> <p>Maya - I can see you in that pop spot dress! Also I am swooning over those boots! I wouldn't be able to decide between the grey or blue. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-sales-the-one-that-got-away#post-179361 Sun, 04 Jul 2010 05:16:28 +0000 Debora 179361@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Maya, you are such an enabler! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-sales-the-one-that-got-away#post-179355 Sun, 04 Jul 2010 05:00:28 +0000 Maya 179355@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>BTW....you can get 20% off if you shop now, though it won't ship out until August. I wonder--do they charge you now or when the item ships? Because I really want to order that fuchsia tunic! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-sales-the-one-that-got-away#post-179354 Sun, 04 Jul 2010 04:52:41 +0000 Maya 179354@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmm, that dress would be terrible on me, but I bet it would look good on *you* Debora. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-sales-the-one-that-got-away#post-179350 Sun, 04 Jul 2010 04:46:26 +0000 Debora 179350@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great picks, Maya!

Definitely keep checking back. Returns are bound to happen. I once felt disappointed that I missed out on a pair of Boden flats, but they popped up again and ended up being even less expensive!</p> <p>...of course they ended up being hideously painful and I ultimately sold them on ebay, but that's not really the point. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-sales-the-one-that-got-away#post-179346 Sun, 04 Jul 2010 04:42:55 +0000 Maya 179346@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I actually saw quite a few things I loved.

Maybe I am just in a crankypants mood after missing out on the dress, but I am extremely UNDERWHELMED!! Too many ditsy floral prints for my liking. It's interesting because I could have quite happily worn most of last years catalogue. I only looked quickly but didn't see a single item in this one that I felt like stalking! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-sales-the-one-that-got-away#post-179330 Sun, 04 Jul 2010 03:55:02 +0000 Debora 179330@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Don't give up yet, Tam. I've noticed that an item or size can reappear. I'm also guessing that returns might be added back to the inventory. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-sales-the-one-that-got-away#post-179325 Sun, 04 Jul 2010 03:47:05 +0000 Anonymous 179325@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I wasn't expecting the Boden USA sale, so when I received the email about it, I immediately clicked over and started loading up my cart. I "shushed" my husband and kids and told them how DIRE it was that I make my purchases quickly before the sizes I wanted were gone. I stocked up on shirts for my boys and ordered two dresses and some flats for myself. They have yet to get here. </p> <p>I'm sorry you missed out on your dress. That usually happens to me, too, particularly with the kids' clothing, but this year I moved quickly and hopefully everything will fit! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-sales-the-one-that-got-away#post-179322 Sun, 04 Jul 2010 03:15:15 +0000 Traci 179322@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Maybe the autumn presale will take your mind off of it? I stumbled across the presale site today and was drooling all over my keyboard.</p> <p><a href="http://www.bodenpreview.com/en-US/Womens-Clothing.html#nav" rel="nofollow">http://www.bodenpreview.com/en.....g.html#nav</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-sales-the-one-that-got-away#post-179321 Sun, 04 Jul 2010 03:15:10 +0000 Frances 179321@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tam, I went to their website as soon as they emailed me that the USA sale was on and they were sold out in my size of everything I'd had my eye on. But when I checked equivalent sizing for the UK website, the items were there and available. I think they pull some of the merchandise and some of the sizes before these sales. I've noticed that JCrew does the same thing with the sale section of their website--when they offer an additional 30 percent off everything on their sale page, half the merchandise vanishes and then magically reappears as soon as the sale expires.</p> <p>All I'm saying is, don't give up hope! I've stalked plenty of things on Boden's website, hoping somebody might return an item that is out of stock, and I've had success with this. If you really love the dress, just keep stalking it and waiting patiently. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-sales-the-one-that-got-away#post-179316 Sun, 04 Jul 2010 03:01:26 +0000 taylor 179316@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tam ,you are funny!!</p> <p>OK, how about this<br /> How ridiculous they didn't stock enough items in your size...poor planning on their part!! something better out there for you!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-sales-the-one-that-got-away#post-179313 Sun, 04 Jul 2010 02:56:27 +0000 yublocka 179313@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Argh!! You know how a few of us were moaning last week that Boden USA went on sale before Boden UK?</p> <p>I just hit refresh on the <a href="http://www.boden.co.uk/en-GB/Womens-Dresses/Knee-Length-Dresses/WH193/Womens-Easygoing-Silk-Dress.html?m=1">Easygoing Silk Dress</a> window I'd had opened and been stalking all week, only to find its already sold out in my size now that it's on sale.</p> <p>Boooo! I've been stalking that for months. Can someone please quickly say something nasty about the dress that makes me feel better for mssing out?</p> <p>Did anyone manage to score anything in the Boden sale that they had been lusting after?</p> <p>tam </p>
