Boden Comes to eBay - A Review

Boden is a favourite brand in our house but, as you will know, it's quite expensive to buy so any way of grabbing a bargain on their ranges is perfect. Did you know that Boden are one of the retailers on the eBay Fashion site? eBay's Boden store features a wide range of brand new clothing and accessories at up to 60% off so it's a great way of finding a bargain for yourself or your family.

To promote the range of children's Spring/Summer wear available on the site I was invited to choose a few items for Little Miss to wear. Not a hard choice to make at all. I browsed and selected three items for Little Miss - a pair of blue cord bloomers, a salmon pink fine knit cardigan and a printed polo t-shirt.


I chose the bloomers and cardigan as I knew that the buttons on the bloomers matched the cardigan's colour and that they would make a lovely little outfit. I'm such a fan of tights and shorts for Little Miss, I think they always look really sweet and, as she isn't walking yet, shorts can be better and more comfortable for her when she is playing on the floor. Pairing a plain pair of shorts with some funky tights and a pretty top will definitely be a regular look for her this autumn and winter. With Little Miss being quite dainty it means that clothes which were bought to wear in Summer get a new lease of life in the cooler months. The Boden bloomers are made from beautifully soft cord with a funky yellow print around the waistband, set off by four pink buttons. They are really lovely and I think she will wear these lots. The fine knit cardigan co-ordinates perfectly and is beautifully soft and easy to wear. I really like the velvet ribbon detail behind the buttons which makes it extra soft and comfortable for Little Miss.


The third item I ordered might surprise you but I'm a big fan of making clothes work in different ways so when I spotted the blue printed polo shirt, and the smallest size they had was 2-3, I knew that it would work really well as a little dress for her. She can wear it this way and then, when she gets bigger, wear it as a polo shirt. I love the white dogs print against the bright blue background and I think it looks fab as a dress. This is a great way of justifying purchasing those more expensive items and improving on 'cost per wear' especially in little children who grow so quickly.


The items arrived quickly, in normal Boden packaging, no-one would know they were bought from the Boden eBay outlet unless you chose to tell them. I'm definitely going to be back to pick up some beautiful bargains for my two, and maybe even myself.

Disclosure: I was sent these items for review purposes, all opinions are open and honest.
