Boden's Cashmere Tunic...

My finger feels better, all. It really hurt yesterday, but by the evening, all was good again. Now I have a migraine. Blegh. I tell ya, if it's not one thing, it's another. There probably is a front moving in, or as I like to say, "weather must be heading our way." Well, duh, of course, weather is always heading our way, but if you are a fellow sufferer of migraines, I am sure that really, monster big fronts (like the ones that produce thunderstorms from NY to FL) do you in, as well. I can't be the only person who gets headaches from crazy-butt storms.

Okay, so I wore this yesterday. I am only wearing my yoga pants and sherpa hoodie today, so need to see that.


The polyvore has all the info you need on pieces, please let me know if you have specific questions.

I REALLY wanted this tunic in the blue/brown color, but it QUICKLY sold out at bodenusa.com. I think the combo of a good price for a lot of cashmere made people seek it out. It is REALLY high quality cashmere, I have worn it twice for long stretches, and SHOCK, not a single pill to be seen, even under the arms.

Johnnie Boden said in describing this tunic "that all women deserve a ridiculous amount of cashmere," or something like that. Yes, a cashmere tunic that even in the UK size 10 seems like a lot of cashmere is a very good thing. I think it was originally like $158, but I bought it during one of those 20% off sales, which brought the price down a lot.


Sizes:
Tunic: UK Size 10 (or US 4-6).
Jeans: Size 31R.
Boots: Size 9. (BTW, I bought FOR A SONG, a pair of the metropolitan suede ankle boots off ebay in the birch color. I literally did a search, found a pair in 9.5, looked to see when it was ending--33 seconds, anyone--and bid the first bid at 149.99 and won!!! Obviously meant to be because I just sold something on ebay for 152 dollars making this a very even financial week--woohoo. Okay enough about boots that I have only worn around the house.)
Necklace: From Talbots and utterly lovely. :)

Talk soon. Comments on the New Year's Eve outfits tomorrow.
