Boden Rainbow Tulle Jacket.
If you have a little girl, this might just be the item that you need on your radar for summer 2023.
I spotted this on my Instagram feed a few weeks ago and IMMEDIATELY clicked through to purchase. Alas! It was sold out. A week or so after I was fed another Boden ad via somewhere else (as you get) and I thought I would chance it and see. I couldn’t believe my luck as they had only 4-5yrs left in stock (my daughter’s size) so I purchased it QUICK-SHARP. It’s actually the first time I have EVER purchased *anything* from Boden and I was super pleased by how easy it was (I also got 20% off as it was a sale weekend – massive bonus!) and it arrived quickly with updates about delivery status etc. The perfect shopping experience and I will definitely be back.
Anyway, the Rainbow Tulle Jacket. It’s a dream piece. I love it. It’s so pretty and cute and fun and I absolutely WANT one for myself! So may others have said the same when I have shared it over socials.. Unfortunately they only do it up to a size 11-12yrs but here’s hoping for next year they do us grown up sizes. It’s has multicoloured layers of beautiful tulle fabric, it is linen-lined and does up at the top with a small button. I was a little nervous as my daughter, who is autistic, can sometimes be very particular when it comes to what clothes she will wear and textures etc BUT I simply left it hanging in her wardrobe and you know what?!….she chose it as soon as she saw it and wanted it on immediately! YES!
It looks super cute, and I can’t share too many pictures of her actually wearing it as we are having a naked-at-home stage but I can promise it’s really pretty! I feel like it would be maybe more of a fun / holiday / occasion kind of jacket for most, but for us we will literally wear I when she fancies a bit of pizazz….it may be to the park, to the supermarket or just flouncing about @ home…it’s all fine with me. It would look super cute with some jeans or shorts on holiday! Size-wise I would have gone up to a 5-6yrs if they had the stock in as we always size up as Margot is tall (and to get more wears out of items!) but it fits well now *but* I can’t see it lasting another summer which is a shame – they are true to size!
Anyway I wanted to share with you here as people seem to be really loving it and trying to get one themselves – like I said, it IS sold out currently but I was really lucky when I checked that they had a re-stock, so that may happen again, I would just keep checking back! CLICK HERE to check. Also, Boden do some really cute other kiddies clothing, I know I am very late to the party as it seems to be very popular with all the mums but I had never bought anything from there before and now I have a very long lust-list, both for myself and my daughter! They also seem to hold flash sales and 20-30% off sales quite regularly so keep your eyes out for that too.
