My favorite roll-out of early Spring Collection has to be from Boden. From the shoes and blouses to the pants and dresses, everything is just so pretty. I can’t even pick a favorite. I do like the Polperro Top but it does look like it will not fit broad shoulders very well. There’s an image on the site where it looks like it is cut tight across the chest on the model.
I would love to get the Bistro Short in the Breton Stripe. I do need some new Wideleg Jeans and maybe pair them with the Marion Top in Mandarin/Navy Stripe. And how easy to wear is the Broderie Jersey Dress. I’d be comfortable all Spring. Lastly, I thought I wanted the Seatown Shirtdress in Navy Big Dot but I love the colors and stripes of the Multi Blues Stripes.
And how cute are these shoes? The Vienne Point Flat comes in a variety of solid colors as well as two in stripes.
Dina, over at My Superfluities Blog is my go-to gal for all things Boden, including fit and reviews. I want to look as good as she does when she wears her Boden.
What has been your favorite roll-out from retailers? Waiting on late Spring or Summer? All shopped out?
Have a Great Day!
Follow me on…
I can see you in all those new arrivals you picked. Those striped shorts would look especially nice! 🙂
Thanks for the shoutout! Once the February onslaught of birthdays ends (my hubby and son), I can actually get back to doing some blog posts…definitely featuring some cute new arrivals.
Dina – Thanks! January/February birthdays are crazy over here too. (mom, uncle, son, aunt, gma, niece) I ended up order the wide-leg jeans. and the Jessica Dress over the Broderie Dress. I'm excited to get them.
I was looking through the Boden catalog yesterday and tabbed a few things that I might want to buy including that Marion top. It looks so retro and lady-like. I placed an order for the Alice heel but have to wait until March for them to arrive. I'm anxious for them to arrive but think it might be better if I have to wait because them I might actually have more opportunity to wear them compared to know in the dead of winter.
I have my eye on a few things but nothing I'm dying to buy although the things that I have bought are spring items (an Isaac Mizrahi jacket from QVC, some mules from Madewell, tees/tanks from Everlane and a leather jacket).
FshnOnMyMind – I've been very selective so far in what I order. I finally placed a J Crew order and did order a few things from Boden. I'm hoping everything works out.
The stripy flats are now on my spring summer radar!
I agree Tabitha! The blue stripes with green heel are my favorite.
Love Boden! I received the navy big dog shirtdress and it is extremely sheer! Not sure if the floral will be the same but I was so, so sad. The fit is incredible but just can't do a slip in spring/summer.
Thanks Liz! I liked the Big Dot pattern but ended up ordering the striped one. I hope with the different blue stripes it won't be as sheer.
Let me know if you order the Polperro top. That was one that I was going to order, but every single model shot it shows as being too tight in the shoulders and chest. Most reviews say the same thing. I did order the Marion Top in navy, and this is a top that is more for winter/spring than spring/summer, as it is a more heavy (not too heavy) polyester/cotton knit. I also ordered the Dolly Top in navy, and am pleased with that as well. Thanks for your picks and reviews. They are quite helpful! Let us know how your picks turn out!
CC – I dd not order the Polperro Top. I really think it's going to be tight on me in the arms. I'm hoping once a few people buy it the reviews say differently. I'll post reviews of what I did order next week.
I love the stripe top you link to. In one of our favorite models from J. Crew, now relegated to the Factory side. lol
Have a good weekend :0
