Boden's 'business to casual' top reduced by 50% to £45 could easily be mistaken for Chanel

Boden shoppers are raving about a 'super stylish' top that could easily be mistaken for an item sold at a luxury Parisian boutique. Those who have already got their hands on the 'great quality' waistcoat say it is great for both both 'casual and business casual events', making it a versatile wardrobe essential.

The spotlight is on Boden's Holly Knitted Waistcoat. It originally cost £90 but shoppers can save a whopping 50% online, bringing the price down to a more manageable £45.

While not 100% identical to styles offered by Chanel, it's definitely inspired by the high-end fashion house. It has not only been crafted in a 'quiet luxury' black and cream colourway that is is often associated with Chanel, it features big gold buttons emblematic of the designer label.

The knitted waistcoat has been crafted from a heavy duty cotton that's perfect for spring. It has enough structure that you can wear it own as a top, or over a blouse or long sleeve t-shirt on cooler days.

It's been cut in a regular, easy shape that's fitted but not too tight. It's also designed to fall between the waist and hip, creating a feminine silhouette that's not too long, boxy or oversized.

Boden's Holly Knitted Waistcoat boasts an overall star-raring of 4.4 out of five based on almost 20 reviews. One satisfied shopper said: "Nice waistcoat to wear over shirts and make an office outfit more interesting. It also works well with an oversized shirt and jeans for the weekend."
