I will be complaining if they don't.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-boden-fw-browsing#post-1947577 Mon, 13 Aug 2018 14:30:19 +0000 LaPed 1947577@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie, I saw your sizing notes! I am consistently in between a 2 and a 4 (US sizing) for Boden, mainly due to the shoulders being too tight on the 2 in jackets and dresses, and preferring a looser leg on my pants. Looking at the size chart for the items I'm planning to order, I may very well end up in 2 all around this season (but will order 4 to try as well), so I do wonder if the fit model is changing. Maybe they'll add a US 0 at some point to compensate? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-boden-fw-browsing#post-1947568 Mon, 13 Aug 2018 14:23:46 +0000 Angie 1947568@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Catching you up with this thread - and huge Boden order placed:</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-order-miss-and-sobbing">https://youlookfab.com/welookf.....nd-sobbing</a></p> <p><b></b> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-boden-fw-browsing#post-1947558 Mon, 13 Aug 2018 13:58:48 +0000 Bijou 1947558@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How did I miss this thread!

Maybe I try one, for pottering in the house and garden.

These are almost an exact replica of my favourite pants from college, except high-rise instead of low. Again with the blush, but also cinnamon/toffee, which may be even better for me...&nbsp;<br /><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www2.hm.com/en_us/productpage.0669034002.html">http://www2.hm.com/en_us/produ.....34002.html</a></p> <p>I will probably order these *and* the Boden pair for comparison.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-boden-fw-browsing#post-1941495 Thu, 26 Jul 2018 07:57:11 +0000 Chiara 1941495@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ha! I've been eyeing off many of these lovely items as well- particularly the balloon sleeve sweater and the long multi-colour coat. Just have to keep reminding myself that my dominant season is SUMMER.&nbsp;</p> <p>I recently bought some summer items on clearance. For the price, the quality and finish are very good.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-boden-fw-browsing#post-1941174 Wed, 25 Jul 2018 13:17:16 +0000 LaPed 1941174@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Adriana</b>, I'm really happy with my Boden Phoebe Dress! I wear it once or twice a week. I've not had trouble with the fabric stretching, but it is a loose fit on my to begin with -- I am between sizes and went with the larger of my two possible sizes. I lay it flat to dry rather than hanging it as it's quite heavy when wet. </p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-boden-fw-browsing#post-1941142 Wed, 25 Jul 2018 10:53:26 +0000 kkards 1941142@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>love that Wren dress....have no need for another short sleeve dress...and wondering if i need a casual rain coat......great finds.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-boden-fw-browsing#post-1941141 Wed, 25 Jul 2018 10:52:41 +0000 Style Fan 1941141@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Boden has some great pieces for F/W.&nbsp; I am also on the hunt for corduroy.&nbsp; I would like to find some corduroy jeans.&nbsp; I have noticed more corduroy lately.&nbsp; That might be a good sign. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-boden-fw-browsing#post-1941137 Wed, 25 Jul 2018 10:44:15 +0000 jussie 1941137@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the blush cords would be lovely with your bergundy boots. And the corduroy fabric would give the blush a bit more guts and quirk iykwim.<br /> I also could see you in the rainbow stripe sweater Angie is considering....<br /> Personally if I had any shopping budget left I would order the 70s floral print in the blue shirt-dress, as well as the duck egg blue cord skirt, and the colour block blue coat. Mmmmm </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-boden-fw-browsing#post-1941108 Wed, 25 Jul 2018 08:44:14 +0000 Staysfit 1941108@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Regarding the blush, I think you should consider trying them.. I tried adding some colored denim to my wardrobe for summer and I picked two colors, blush and red. The blush ended up working like a neutral. They go with everything, but they also work like a color. I wear them frequently, a little more than once a week. The red are fun but I don’t wear them as often.</p> <p>@Angie, that striped sweater has all your colors in one place! Boden designers must be reading YLF! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-boden-fw-browsing#post-1941106 Wed, 25 Jul 2018 08:31:56 +0000 Adriana 1941106@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very tempting. But I need to look at the clearance for a few dresses. Just heard that our very unusual heatwave will go on for weeks more. I'm not ready for the autumn stuff, although I like winter and autumn dressing the best, with jackets etc.<br /> Are you happy with your Boden jersey dress? Does it keep it shape ( rear)? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-boden-fw-browsing#post-1941037 Wed, 25 Jul 2018 01:32:42 +0000 LaPed 1941037@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, that mustard silk!! I rather like the 70s-inspired floral too...</p> <p>I have just about convinced myself I need the blush corduroys. I want to wear them with my field jackets (olive and grey), not to mention my burgundy plaid wool shirt and grey tweed blazer. And that's just off the top of my head, without looking in my closet.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-boden-fw-browsing#post-1941033 Wed, 25 Jul 2018 01:17:53 +0000 Kathie 1941033@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So glad you started this thread! I've been looking at a few of the dresses, including the Wren (love the navy/mustard). Also the corduroy blazer and color block coat that Angie mentioned. And the silk blouse (hand-washable, so not just dry clean, yea!) in mustard. And, if the Zella cashmere/wool hoodie at NAS doesn't work out, then the Logan or cashmere sweaters. Thus far, I'm enjoying their fall color palette- a nice change from the more primary focus of summer, and less of the pop red, which did not work for me. If you're not sold on blush, I do think it could be worth it to wait a bit. I'll be curious if you get an answers from customer service. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-boden-fw-browsing#post-1940957 Tue, 24 Jul 2018 21:32:51 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 1940957@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, I love that wool color block coat! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-boden-fw-browsing#post-1940956 Tue, 24 Jul 2018 21:32:50 +0000 LaPed 1940956@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Sara L</b>,&nbsp;if there's one thing I enjoy about being back in the northeast after living in the southwest, it's my expanded outerwear collection! I have two raincoats already, but they are both more gear than fashion, so I think this one might have a place. Also, we're going through a mini-monsoon season right now, after several very dry months, so I have raincoats on the brain. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-boden-fw-browsing#post-1940950 Tue, 24 Jul 2018 21:21:41 +0000 Sara L. 1940950@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, I love that burgundy patterned raincoat.&nbsp; Too bad I have absolutely no need for a raincoat in my climate.&nbsp; I love blush and burgundy together so I vote go for it.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-boden-fw-browsing#post-1940935 Tue, 24 Jul 2018 20:46:57 +0000 Christina F. 1940935@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am not a corduroy fan, but I bet Boden will do it better than anyone else. There are lots of other lovely items. That Anya Mac is calling my name, even though I already have a Boden Mac in a fun London print. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-boden-fw-browsing#post-1940919 Tue, 24 Jul 2018 19:58:56 +0000 LaPed 1940919@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Suz</b>, I think I will contact CS and ask about colours -- you never know! I thought of you when I saw the new Mac prints. The polka dots and the gingham are both so fun...</p> <p><b>Toban</b>, I teach at an alternative school and a preschool, so denim is totally appropriate. Blazers are sort of an indulgence for me, because they are totally unnecessary but I love the way they look and feel -- more so than cardigans, which is what most of my colleagues opt for. :)</p> <p>If these fit nicely and are a good sturdy corduroy, I could justify a duplicate pair in a second colour if they do show up later one. I've tried and rejected <b>a lot </b>of corduroy these past few years -- it's my top HEWI! </p> <p><b>Angie</b>, I am not a fan of&nbsp;most<b>&nbsp;</b>corduroy that is available these days; too stretchy, leggings-like, and unstructured. But I love classic menswear corduroy. It's an endless hunt. </p> <p>I will definitely consider the blush -- it might be my fall wildcard. I love the colour-block coat and the Wren dress! Not practical for me right now, but I keep looking at the navy/mustard, as it's one of my fav colour combos...</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-boden-fw-browsing#post-1940909 Tue, 24 Jul 2018 19:40:28 +0000 Angie 1940909@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Also looking at these items for later:&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-boden-fw-browsing#post-1940907 Tue, 24 Jul 2018 19:37:21 +0000 Suz 1940907@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I <b>LOVE</b> Boden now too and I am sure I will shop with them again especially now that I understand my size better. I'm strongly considering one of the raincoats.&nbsp;</p> <p>Blush and burgundy are great together and I can see those working for you. I wonder if they would answer a question about whether they are planning more colours, though, on a chat? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-boden-fw-browsing#post-1940906 Tue, 24 Jul 2018 19:36:21 +0000 Angie 1940906@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I placed a Boden order this morning: coat &amp; dress (I had to STALK because they were out of my size <i>already</i>. I pounced when they came back into stock).&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-boden-fw-browsing#post-1940904 Tue, 24 Jul 2018 19:34:52 +0000 Angie 1940904@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>BODEN IS LOOKING SOOO GOOD, <b>La Ped</b>. They are getting a large amount of my fashion dollars this year. PLEASE consider blush bottoms. Excellent with burgundy.&nbsp;</p> <p>I'm not a big fan of corduroy, but BODEN corduroy will sway me. I like the jacket and the skirt here. The red cord blazer has my attention - although it might not be orange enough. LOVE the macs: </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-boden-fw-browsing#post-1940903 Tue, 24 Jul 2018 19:33:45 +0000 Toban 1940903@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lovely items. Boden has some great offers already for this fall. To answer your question -- do both, try the Burgundy and/or blush now and be open to other colors if more options appear. That star blazer would look great with jeans -- can you wear jeans to work? </p>
