Boden jacket arrived today. I ordered it one size smaller because of Angie and reviews indicating it ran big and because it wasn’t available in petite. The regular in one size smaller fits great with the sleeves rolled, which is how I always wear my denim jacket. I love the navy top stitching, which doesn’t show in the web pictures, and the gold buttons. The warm bright cream fits seamlessly into my wardrobe and lightens up my palette. I’ll try to get some pictures tomorrow. I am pretty sure it is a keeper but want to test its length proportions in a few outfits before I cut the tags.
As an aside, and reminiscing with Chris’ post, two years ago I would NEVER have been comfortable with so much of a light color on top. I kept cream to small doses, in shells under jackets. But I’ve learned a lot here on YLF and for the first time love how a light colored jacket looks on me. Never say never. I guess next up is tackling light colored bottoms!
