DRESS: c/o Boden | SHOES: c/o Boden
If you’ve followed this blog from the beginning, you know that the quintessentially-British brand Boden really speaks my language—both literally and figuratively. Their classic, tailored, feminine silhouettes with just the right amount of color and quirk never disappoint. It’s this commitment to timeless British style that has me coming back again and again (perhaps a little too often), and their spring collection is no exception. Every single piece is both easy-to-wear yet perfectly polished—a chord the Brits always manage to strike—and at an affordable price to boot.
For today’s Garden Party theme of the ongoing 30 Dresses in 30 Days series, it seemed apt to go with a favorite British brand and a classic, airy silhouette. The vintage-inspired chambray midi dress is one of those dresses that would look as perfect at a dressy Garden Party or ladies luncheon as it would heading to weekend brunch or a day at the beach. Of course, it’s the details that make the dress—the white broderie anglaise embroidery and scalloped sleeves? I’m a goner. It’s likely no surprise that the red version is currently in my shopping cart.

I’m a huge lover of the classic British style – you described it so well! I think one of my favorite parts about it is how feminine, elegant, and timeless everything is. I love the lace and high-collars too 🙂 This dress is beautiful, and perfect for a Garden party (as you described) or even afternoon tea. This will definitely be a new piece in my wardrobe. I can’t wait to check out Boden!

I’m curious what size you get in this dress and what size you normally are. I’m normally a size 0/2, XS, 25 in jeans. It says I would take a 4. Does that sound right?
I’m a 0 and size 25 in jeans and Boden size 2 (their smallest) is too big on me. I don’t shop from them because I’ve never been able to get the right fit. Maybe they’ve adjusted their sizing and I should give them another shot!
Beautiful dress! x

This is super cute!
I love your suggestions when it comes to dresses.
I’m currently looking for a maxi dress for my friend’s bridal shower! Do you have any specific websites you love buying floral dresses from?
Love,
