So, I thought I would talk a little bit about the shops I like to shop in. They include French Connection, New Look, Boots, Superdrug, The Works, Tesco, Asda, etc
French Connection Recently I have found myself shopping in French Connection, now I know a lot of you will immediately think the French Connection is too expensive. I will agree with you, it is very pricy, dresses over £100?? But I shop in the outlet which makes it cheaper, and you can end up having 90% of an item, rarely but worth spending time looking for your size in the sale. I also tend to stick to 2 items at the most when I do find things I like. So I end up spending the same amount or less as you get a couple of bits you really love and fit perfectly rather than 4 or 5 items you like and maybe haven’t tried on. I have found over the past 2 years I have managed to pick up some nice bits from French Connection and have not paid more than £20 an item. I got some nice jumpers and dresses. It is great for holiday clothes.
New Look is great all around but I particularly like their shoes and cardigans/jumpers. I have found quite a few nice tops in there recently. It is a very affordable shop. If you shop carefully you will be fine. I can never be bothered to take anything back to the shop so I am generally 99% sure I am going to keep the item before I actually spend my money. I have found that in New Look you may get the odd excess thread sticking out but if you snip that then you are fine, be sure that it is secure before you cut it otherwise you risk it falling apart altogether. One thing I really struggle to buy is shoes, I have very small feet and often end up in the kid’s section where you don’t really get any nice ones. I have found that a new look is great for buying shoes that fit, they almost always have my size, and they look amazing, I never have a problem whatsoever.
When it comes to stores like Boots, Superdrug and Savers I would say my favourite out of the three are Boots, mainly because they tend to be bigger and have more of a range. An example would be a hair mask, you are more likely to find what you want in boots as they carry a varied number of brands, and they carry more within that brand as well. I know you can only get a limited amount of L’Oreal things in my local Superdrug of which there is 3. Superdrug is good for things you know are there and, in the ones, you use, I would say if you are having a look and comparing you should go to Boots but if you know what you want you can get it in Superdrug. Savers is good for finding things cheaper but you can’t guarantee it will always be in there.
