I love when I discover new stores that feature practical and classy cuts to suit all girls. Many of you probably are familiar with Boden, but it's a new discovery for me! I have to say, I was really impressed with the awesome tailoring and wide array of styles, cuts, and sizes. That is always a real draw for me, as I can't just walk into H&M or Forever 21 and snag a size by eyeing it...paying no heed to the fabric.
Nope. Those days are over. And I'm HARD on my clothes these days, so quality is very important.

Swishy Jersey Skirt (I bought it! :) & Vintage Heeled Boots
I'm nearly 30 and I know what looks good on me. Being curvy and a size 12 I know I need good "forgiving" fabrics, practical lengths on skirts, and pants with a little stretch in them. As much as I love neon and crazy prints, most of the time a basic color with little fuss is going to flatter me best. Lucky for me, Boden features just that with color palettes that are very nostalgic for fall.
Sixties Jumper & Casual Cable Cardigan
Zip Ankle Skimmer Pant & Pimlico Dress
Boden is a great store for all shapes and sizes and the quality is undeniable. I imagine this clothing lasting for years to come...not to mention staying classic through the murky waters of trend shifts. Check it out! (Psssst: There is a pretty good summer clearance sale going on too!)
