As with Marks and Spencer, I would like to challenge the popular view that Clarks is a shop for old…read morepeople and children. Because it puts so much emphasis on quality and comfort, so many people believe that Clarks can't possibly be fashionable. If I'm completely honest, I used to hold this view too. I thought Clarks was wear you bought school shoes for children, and wear older people bought "sensible shoes". And the last time I was in Clarks was because my Grandma needed a new pair of shoes. While she went off to find something, my mum and I sat and waited by the window. It wasn't long before we noticed that there were some really, really nice shoes on the shelf next to us. By the time my Grandma had finished, my mum had chosen a gorgeous pair of clogs (which are very much in fashion right now), while I'd found myself a lovely pair of wedges. I was surprised at how stylish Clarks' shoes actually are when you get inside and have a proper look. And because it's Clarks, you know that the shoes are top quality, and you'll be able to wear them all day in complete comfort. Obviously you're never going to go into Clarks and get a pair of 5" stilettos to wear clubbing, but for some comfortable, well-made and totally fashionable day shoes, Clarks should definitely not be ignored.

While it's a few years off yet, I am excited about the idea of being a mum, and I really hope that this shop is still around when that day comes. The shoes in this shop are absolutely gorgeous. So much so that I'm actually jealous of the children I see in there because they get to wear these shoes, and I don't. This shop is fantastic, selling high quality shoes that are fitted by well-trained staff in a fun and colourful environment. And good shoes doesn't mean they have to be either; so many of them are unstoppably cute. Shoes aside, I noticed the other day that there's a huge selection of hats on the wall. Again, I'm really annoyed that my head's too small to buy one for myself, because these hats are awesome. Absolutely the best place to come to keep your child's head warm while making them look all kinds of adorable.

This is a shoe shop down one of my favourite arcades in the city, namely Castle Arcade. The arcades…read moreare a great part of Cardiff's shopping experience that are generally less busy than the likes of Queen Street and St. David's 2. Though, I'm sure the shops down Castle Arcade are welcoming the pedestrianisation of St. Mary's Street which is bound to bring in a little more foot traffic. Funky Monkey Feet offer a range of children's shoes from early ages to those that are almost teenagers and about to go all grumpy. They tend to be those branded, fancy shoes, so these aren't exactly cheap. I think this will tend to be a shop attended by those that are into fashion and all that kind of thing. They also do toys and a range of clothing for the little ones as well.

The problem with this shop is that go inside looking for something nice and comfortable for every day wearing (or maybe that's just me, I'm just not a Kurt kinda girl), and it's hard to find anything. Office have some of the mos spectacularly silly shoes that I've ever seen. They're pretty and colourful and frilly when you see them all together, but on their own I personally think they're just ugly. There are a lot of more sensible shoes, but prices can be very high, especially in their boots section. These are shoes that make a fashion statement. Which is great, but I prefer the slightly less over the top Schuh two doors down.

If like me, you have a small fetish for summer sandals then this is the place for you right now. The shoes probably cater towards slightly older folk who have a real love for comfort because they sell birkenstocks but I love me some birkens and usually find them quite difficult to track down in Cardiff. They stock hush puppies and cloggs as well, so if you like that kind of thing, you'll LOVE it here.

I went in looking for a jumper, looking for one of those snuggly huggly jumpers that you put on when you've got home from a long wet walk and just want to huddle in front of the television with a hot chocolate. I was quite happy with the range of jumpers that were on offer in terms of style but when I looked at the prices (most of them seemed to be around £45 and upwards) I was a little disappointed because there wasn't a great deal of substance. Having said that, popping in here on a sunny day to find bikinis, flip flops and the like does make me feel as though I might be heading down to Cornwall soon, mostly because of the surfer decor. And that makes me happy.
