    New Favorite Clothes from Boden

    May 13, 2020 / No Comments

    I’ve been living in some seriously ugly pants. Like really bad. They are bell-bottom yoga pants. One pair is black with paisley at the top. The other pair is gray with pink at the top. Both pairs have big, noticeable seams running down the sides. I’ve been eager to have some comfortable, day-to-day clothes to slip into. Here are my new favorite clothes from Boden!

    Eleanor Jersey Dress

    This dress is so comfortable. I’m just as comfortable whether I’m wearing it or my ugly yoga pants. And yet I could so easily slip on a cardigan and dress it up. I can also sit criss-cross on the floor without … Read More

    Comfortable Dress: Jersey Fabric with Pockets

    Boden model: comfortable dress
    This is a Boden model, not me!

    You all know I don’t talk about fashion much. That’s because I hate shopping! When Kelsey mentioned Boden dresses, I popped over and ordered this dress. It turns out it’s the most comfortable dress I’ve owned in a while!

    I then proceeded to order a second one. I didn’t realize the dots are pink. I’m not really a fan of pink and black, but it’s okay. I need at least five things to wear in a work week!

    For some reason, these dresses know how to flatter. I don’t get weird ridges around my back fat, and my stomach looks flatter … Read More
