I'm looking for inspiration on what, if any, Bodens to get this spring/summer. The 25% off and account credit suckered me in. Rather than just buy tshirts for my kids, anyone have items they have bought and liked so far? I'm thinking about this top (http://www.bodenusa.com/Womens-Tops-T-shirts/Short-Sleeved-Tops/WL810-ORA/Womens-Bright-Orange-Vintage-Abstract-Short-Sleeve-Wrap-Jersey-Top.html#nav) in either orange or navy. Would love other ideas!

I gave up,online clothes shopping for Lent, so I haven't been stalking Boden lately. But I think this top is cute in orange or navy:

I bought the printed cotton skirt in persian green. I never have luck with bode tops, but their skirts fit me well.

That totally caught my eye but I don't have the bust for it - my usual size would be all flappy up top! ;) Boden tops/dresses often don't work for me, because IME the designers like their women curvy - (and tiny-waisted. Hmm. Sounds familiar). But I keep trying anyway, since the few I have that do work are lovely!


25% off and account credit? Details pretty please. :D.

Code is G2D8 - 25% off and FS/FR, posted by another user on the other Boden thread re the $10 voucher. Some of us got Boden vouchers by email on Tuesday, and some others got vouchers in the mail (I didn't) and some got both! I usually get none, so I am happy with my emailed voucher.

I find the dresses to be made for curvy women as well. I bought 2 dresses with the last sale and they have a bit of room up top.

I got this in Navy (can't decide, might return, it's cute but how many striped tshirts do I need??):

Waiting on this in Navy (wow, guess it was popular):

And waiting on this denim dress:

ETA: Denim dress came. Even though I have this dress in this size but in cord, it is going back. The fit is wacky - bunchy around the stomach and too tight around the armpits. Bummer but that probably explains why it was so marked down.

Love all the Broderie and crochet detail shirts, but the ones I like are usually already sold out in my size. :(

I have had good luck with the new skirts.

These two in navy.

Black and white stripe. I'm wearing this one today and love the pockets.

I have that in yellow from last year, and I love it. Perfect tank for big-busted, wide shouldered me!

I want more fun, bright cardigans, so I have this sitting in my cart:

Interesting, I saw that and was afraid that I'd be too busty for it and would be coming out the top. Glad it works.


I want this in the orange. Of course, I already own a couple versions of this dress from prior years, but this is a little different because there isn't a belt, and I know that the style is very flattering on me. but how many of these dresses can I get? I have one that is a little too small now (sadly, I've gained a bit of weight) and two others that do fit! So I shouldn't buy this one too.

I have the bow front blouse from the clearance page (can't link from my phone) and it's great. Not quite as silky soft as I'd like but really flattering and pooch hiding. I think it's $19 before the discount/voucher so a total steal.

Here is the link. I bought two different colors of this top awhile back and agree that it is comfy and flattering.

I really like that top, especially the orange! I have the l/s wrap top and love it! I think it would look good on any body style, too.

Looking to order a cute casual dress for our beach vacation. I'm 5'10" and probably an 8L in Boden, slightly pear shape. No bust issues here :D

Any thoughts on:

Sunny Day Dress (http://www.bodenusa.com/en-US/Womens-Dresses/Day/WH614/Womens-Sunny-Day-Dress)

Tarifa Dress (http://www.bodenusa.com/en-US/Womens-Dresses/Day/WH652/Womens-Tarifa-Dress)

Casual Weekend Dress (http://www.bodenusa.com/en-US/Womens-Dresses/Day/WH613/Womens-Casual-Weekend-Dress)

Easy T-Shirt Dress (http://www.bodenusa.com/en-US/Womens-Dresses/Day/WH608/Womens-Easy-T-shirt-Dress)

Sienna Dress (http://www.bodenusa.com/en-US/Womens-Dresses/Day/WH637/Womens-Sienna-Dress)

For the beach I would go with the Tarifa or the Easy t-shirt dress. I also like the Sunny Day Dress, but I think it's too dressy for the beach. I'm not find of the other two, but I can't pinpoint why.

Sienna Dress (http://www.bodenusa.com/en-US/Womens-Dresses/Day/WH637/Womens-Sienna-Dress)

I recently purchased the Easy T-shirt dress. It's a really cute and comfy dress. However,for the beach, I think I'd pick the Tarifa - seems like it'd be really easy to slip on and off over a bathing suit.

Actually haven't seen the Sienna dress before. It's cute! Might have to place another order soon. hmmm.

I ordered the Weekend Dress, and I really wanted to like it, I had purchased it for the same reason as you. I fell forward too much on my shoulders, so wasn't flattering on me, but I could see it being super cute on someone else. I think it would be perfect for a pear shape. I liked that I could dress it up a little with flats and a necklace for dinner out.

This is kind of my reasoning - something cute but comfy to wear to a cafe or someplace to eat and look pulled together. Thinking either of Easy Tshirt or Sienna.

Any thoughts on this top??? http://www.bodenusa.com/en-US/Womens-Tops-T-shirts/Sleeveless-Tops/WA505/Womens-Katie-Top?NavGroupID=18

I love it and green and pink but it's pretty pricey for me....even with my $10 credit and the 25% off code.

i also really like this top...www.bodenusa.com/en-US/Womens-Tops-T-shirts/Sleeveless-Tops/WA504/Womens-Pretty-Crochet-Top?NavGroupID=18

I have been eyeing both of these (refer to my post about loving broderie and crochet ;)). Love the Katie in both White and Navy.

Once I return my other stuff I might get one.
