Boden
You can always rely on Boden for serving up cheerful and stylish prints, and this spring the brand’s bloom-covered buys are total winners. If you have just RSVP’d to a big day or plan to go to the races, try the maxi dress with a boned bodice or take the same print to brunch with the silky shirt tucked into some wide-leg trousers. The range is a fresh update of traditional bloom prints and each and every piece will boost your warm weather attire.
