I ordered the smallest US size that they offer, which quite oddly is 2 (I never ordered before for me so I don't know what to expect). So post on Boden coming up soon! Hopefully it will ship before I leave on vacation...Emahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08331051805268660458noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1680003314201998085.post-2170051759611255722010-01-12T11:26:27.280-05:002010-01-12T11:26:27.280-05:00Hi, all! So I went to Anthropologie yesterday and...Hi, all! So I went to Anthropologie yesterday and was able to pick up the cardigan in a size medium, and it was in PERFECT condition. It is a fitted style, so ladies, if you want one, stay true to your J. Crew merino cardigan size. Trust me. :) Also, the cardi is a bit short, but that is in the spirit of the 50s era, will be styling this cardi with a pencil skirt or layering it with a tee or tank.<br /><br />In regards to Boden, I am a little anxious to receive my spring stuff. Like a lot of you, I purchased early with my normal UK sizes. When the receipt came in the e-mail, it showed the sizes I purchased, not the "new" American sizes. Well, hopefully if I have to return stuff, I will be able to do so easily and for the same exact things (no selling out on me, Boden). Good luck to all of you who are in the same boat as me. Please, please let us know what happens with your order when it comes in...thank you in advance. :) And if you have a blog, could you do reviews? I would love to see Boden stuff reviewed more!!! <br /><br />Rosa: Your advice about Anthropologie is AWESOME. Thank you...will use it for sure in the future!!!dinagideonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17892195449655319256noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1680003314201998085.post-34718774355298639902010-01-10T20:57:41.371-05:002010-01-10T20:57:41.371-05:00My Boden Spring pre-order shipped today....yippee!...My Boden Spring pre-order shipped today....yippee!

I was told that the conversion would be made for me on the items shipped. I think this is a little odd (i.e., the UK size 10 was for size 4 and "larger" size 6's, so are they sending a 4 or a 6?). She couldn't tell me with respect to my order what sizes were shipped - at least returns are free!Krishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05193370134066447589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1680003314201998085.post-79395327248644391622010-01-09T09:42:00.575-05:002010-01-09T09:42:00.575-05:00I clicked on over to Boden USA just now (9:40 am S...I clicked on over to Boden USA just now (9:40 am Sat Morning, EST), and there is a 10% off with free shipping and returns offer.

If your nearest store does not have it, they can do a search of the stores that carry the item and they will give you the phone numbers for those stores. They you can call those stores and they will ship it to you for free. Some stores try to charge you for it, but Customer Service has always told me that shipping should be free if they do not have the item at your nearest store. If they tell you "we cannot offer free shipping" then you say "Customer SErvice told me I could get free shipping". That usually works for me. If they say no, then I move on to the next store that has the item. :)<br />Cute sweater!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1680003314201998085.post-79311880534142437052010-01-08T21:49:28.353-05:002010-01-08T21:49:28.353-05:00Thanks for the update on Boden.

I went to check my order confirmation, and although the grey is in the picture - the color slot is blank? So I wonder if I'll really get it. AND I wondered the same thing as both of you above about the sizes.<br />I''m sure they will accommodate that. The cardigan I ordered is still there, so at least I can look forward to that! <br /><br />Glad you found your cardigan!Suzyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14708653277798146489noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1680003314201998085.post-53300294231703040952010-01-08T21:22:41.054-05:002010-01-08T21:22:41.054-05:00Yeah, Erin, I was thinking the same thing.
