It is so lovely to see what a Boden store looks like and how they display the shoes. I am experiencing s case of in store shopping envy, the online experience, whilst very good, is no substitute for being able to see the merchandise first hand.

Thanks for posting.

Well hello there polka dot shoes! I know you wouldn't fit my narrow heels or suit my climate, but youd live happily in my wardrobe:)

Jealous that you have an actual Boden store! The leopard in #2 might just end up in my next Boden order.

I did NOT need to see all of that. Now I need help. LOVE so much of these things! The flats, the booties x2, the bag, the orange bag!! ACK!

My only salvation is no wide sizing. This star boots are killing me. And pretty much everything else.

I adore that red heeled loafer, and was so tempted to get it to wear during my organization's annual conference this year, where I have a very high profile. But. I don't do heels like that any more (sad face), and certainly not at a conference where I logged nearly 20,000 steps each day! I bought the Boden Hampshire wide leg trousers for the conference, which are so elegant, well-fitting and slimming. The shoes would have MADE the outfit. Much appreciation to Angie for highlighting Boden the last couple of years, the quality really is so good. Also got the Elizebeth Blazer, in the red color, which will become a wardrobe workhorse, too. Shoe envy indeed!

Thank you so much! What a beautifully laid out store! Luckily visiting the store or shopping online from the other side of the world ain't happening, so I'm safe. My faves are the Angie-esque orange loafers. I'm still sad I couldn't find more actual orange sandals last summer, only coral. I don't like them as much

Jane,l did not need to know that!Im having trouble enough resisting the bag and boots.
Katerina,inside every “I’m not a shoe person “There s a shoe person waiting for the right shoe or boot to come along.
Jenni,l love those orange shoes too but then I would have to buy the matching bag as well .Glad you enjoyed the pictures.

Living in envy city right now. I want a Boden store. I want a gorgeous shoe and bag display to feast my eyes upon. I want to try on all of the flats and booties, then out of those, I want the leopard flats and star booties to fit. Online shopping just doesn’t hit the mark.

Love it all! Especially loving the star booties, though!

My wallet is very happy that there is no Boden shop within a several thousand mile radius! Tee hee
Thanks for sharing the fun pix.

I do so agree with you Mainelady ,internet shopping is just not the same.
Cindy Smith ,give in to temptation with your first pay cheque!
Opaline,l love them too!
Ladypainter,I am some what saved by being 200 miles away from the nearest Boden shop but sometimes that isn’t far enough!
Vanessa,so do l!

I need ALL THE SHOES!!!!

However, in the interest of full disclosure I will warn heel wearers to road test Boden heels - some are great, but I have had 2 fails where the fit was just off enough to make the shoes hugely uncomfortable,

Now can I have the pretty green boots? Pleeeeeease??

Thank you for your input Gretchen,l think that is the problem with shopping for shoes on the internet,you don’t easily get to try them on.
