It’s a common dilemma, you put on a pair of jeans or a cute skirt and then, you just stare at your tops wondering why you have nothing to wear. I’m trying to add a few tops to my seemingly sparse selection. So this week, the morning post will feature shirts and blouses from a single retailer.
Today’s choice? Boden.
Textured Silk Top ($110, also in black and ivory)
Angie 100% Silk Top ($106, six colors)
Gwyneth Blouse ($65, several colors and prints available)
My dark under eye circles have been the bane of my existence since I was 12. Is the cause lack of sleep? Dehydration? Sinus issues? Stress? Who the hell knows. But there they are, every day, telling the world that I am an exhausted working Mom.
Every now and again, I spot a piece on sale and I have to have it. I need it. I cannot live without it. Recently, I spotted a jersey tee at Boden that takes a casual top to the next level, and I just needed to share.
Sloane loves the pool. She jumps from the deck into the water with a crash, never considering her own safety, only to emerge on the surface, shouting “Again!” The pool is my daughter’s happy place. But no place where I need to wear a swimsuit in public is a happy one for me.

The Crowdstrike/Microsoft Meltdown forced me to take a few days off this weekend. No laptop. No billable hours. So we packed Sloane up for a visit to a local llama farm, stopped by the pool, went for coffee, etc. Few things are as funny as watching a 23-month old feed carrots to a ravenous rescue […]
Hi Belle,
I actually ordered the Jaquard top and returned it. The shirt was not what was advertised. Although I do like Boden in general. This was a total miss.
What about it did you not like?
The design looked okay at first, but it isn’t lined and it does not look like it would retain its shape after a wash. Boden said it is washable. Also the fabric looked like it pill.
You just described me every morning! Ha. And apparently I only gravitate towards black blouses, which I don’t usually like to wear with my black pencil skirt or black pants, so I put myself into this situation. I love the first and third blouses, especially.
Thanks!
