On Order

I've ordered these dresses from the English company Boden. Their stuff is just quirky enough for me and it fits. It's so nice to be able to order a 16 or an 18 and still look fashionably smart and interesting. I've decided to order them now and not wait for the sale. Boden's fabric has a certain quality to it that I'm just not seeing at the "mall", and independent boutiques never carry my size (I'm top-heavy). I get many compliments on the dresses and tunics I've bought from them before so I have a good feeling about these two lovelies. When I was wearing a similar cord dress in Paris last autumn, someone chased me down thinking I was a friend. Nice to be mistaken for a Parisian.
I ordered this dress in purple.

    Very pretty, Hazel. I'm very thankful to have that Boden bunch of clothes from 2 years ago (& about 8 months for a few things). It comes in handy so often. No matter how bad I feel,I can get dressed w/out major upset. Which, some days, is about all I can ask for.

    Somewhat elegant, somewhat chic!
