It's very nice that their security at the front door and the staff is extremely accommodating, they are a little shorthanded so give yourself some time and some patience. I worked with MJ and she was absolutely fabulous. I am not a tiny person by any means and she took the time to grab me some additional sizes out of the back. They do have up to size 16. Just ask for a sales clerk to help you. MJ totally went above and beyond for me. I got boots, a trenchcoat, and I even bought my mom a really nice wrap over poncho. Some of the items are marked down 50% off and then they have additional tag sales that are 40 50 and 60% off the sticker price. One trenchcoat would normally cost $2600+ I got everything for under $1400. This place is totally legit if you can make it it's worth a trip. They have bags, accessories, men's, and women's stuff. They even have shoes and kids clothes. It's a massive store. Give yourself some time and give the staff some grace. I can see why people will rave about this place online. The deals are real.

I have been looking for an everyday purse for a while now. While I was in London, I scrolled thru…read moreYelp for shopping areas and I discovered that Burberry had an Outlet here! I found the perfect purse at a great price for a designer purse. This store has a great selection of purses, accessories, and clothes. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The reason I am writing this review is let people know that the Wi-Fi is not the best in this area of town. I had to wait in the store to call Uber because as soon as I walked outside I lost coverage. Both drop off and pickup had to be done on the main street and not in front of the Burberry Outlet.

Having worked in an office in Mayfair, Thomas Pink fits the bill when one needs to dress like one…read moreshould in and around snooty Mayfair. It would appear that Thomas Pink has done a good job on its homework and has brought good quality shirts at a reasonable price to the masses. Whenever I visit this store it is always busy which is clearly a mark of the success that they are achieving. The thing is this, you can go out and spend money on a cheap and cheerful shirt which is possibly going to last you 6 months or you can invest a bit more on a Pink shirt that feels better, last longer and looks more stylish. The choice is yours, I for one would much rather have the Pink shirt and love the feel and quality that it gives. Trust me you will definitely have more pulling power with the ladies. They always have some offers on - two for one or a free tie or cufflinks etc and for that reason this is the shirt supplier that I choose.

They found the perfect sized cut and size for my husbands shirt and he Wasn't even with me. I would give 5 stars but they had a limited selection of options during this visit. The salesman even followed up later to see do my husband was enjoying his shirt and ties. It is not inexpensive but worth the price for the quality and service provided.

Goodhood grows up!…read more I had popped my head in a few times at Goodhood's small East London outpost (formerly on Coronet Street, tucked away just off Hoxton Square) -- but they've now moved to these much nicer, much larger, much posher digs on Curtain Road. I was pleasantly surprised to find that this new location boasts a large lower level (with kids clothes! and lighting! and cosmetics/products!) as well as the main level with men's and women's fashion. Goodhood is a very popular lifestyle brand (just check out their following on twitter/instagram/facebook) -- and one can see why. It's very hip. I didn't find anything on this particular visit. The clothing isn't quite me. It's also very pricey. The kids clothes are cute, but anyone with an actual child realizes that it's an unnecessary expenditure to buy duds that get covered in food/drool, etc. I'm sure non-parents could buy these as gifts though! I'll be back to explore the cosmetics/product lines and homewares though...also very fond of their jewelry. Similar designs to Start nearby. Summary: great if you are looking for a unique gift or for something special for yourself or your home. Fun to have a poke around. I can't pull off most of the fashion but could def be convinced with some of their home items or beauty stuff. Also, everyone was friendly. A nice change for a boutique in Shoreditch!

I returned it today (Jan 8th, purchased Dec 15th) and they wouldn't take it back, even for store credit. Had it been purchased online, they would have had to under UK law, but it seems their returns policy on the website does not adhere to that either: https://goodhoodstore.com/deliveries-and-returns. They state here items must be returned within 14d of SALE, when actually UK law dictates that notice must be given within 14d of RECEIPT, and items returned within another 14d (28d of receiving items in total) There are plenty of other places that stock the brands that they do for a fraction of the price, and that allow 28d for returns. I genuinely thought I was supporting a local multi-brand store by buying from GoodHood, but it seems their policies are not customer-centric. Shame, nice range.

So effin cute. It's another one of those SIDN stores (Shit I Don't Need) filled to the brim with lovely, pricey, sparkly things that you wouldn't consider buying for yourself but would be nice to buy as a present for someone else. The decor of the place is beautiful and whimsical. There is the kids section in the rear with so many fun things and a beautiful golden tree mirror that i totally want transplanted into my room. There's also a selection of used/vintage (and I think new?) clothing that is fairly priced but too rich for my blood at the moment. Definitely coming back here when I need a gift for a good friends birthday.

If you like Cath Kidston definitely visit this store when you get to London. Cath Kidston products…read morecould be Five Stars except I had a couple bags that didn't hold up under daily use. I'm hard on bags at times. The oilcloth typically covers a cardboard liner. Don't expect it to hold up if you're out in the rain for very long. I do love the zippered pockets and bright colorful prints. It's like the Shabby Chic of handbags! I love to switch bags depending on the occasion and destination. The adjustable strap provides various options for over the shoulder or cross body. Typically there's a second set of handles to carry the bags over your arm. In most styles the bottom of the bag has protection for when you put it down. They're just all around versatile and pretty. I recently found a Cath Kidston dish towel in my cabinet. The colors are vibrant and it looks new. The material is very sturdy and naturally there's her logo sewn on perfectly. I make all my purchases online. Frequently there's a deal on shipping. It was very interesting the first time I ordered as I never purchased anything from outside the United States. Everything went very smooth. I'm recommending you check out the website.

After explaining that H&M's…read moresophisticated, higher end sister was my European go-to and still not available in the States, it became clear I had to take her there. Opened in March 2007, the Regent Street location is London's first Collection of Style (COS). Whilst I still haven't properly figured out their sizing (I consistently have to take two of every item into the fitting room to get it right), I continue to love COS - particularly for dresses and accessories. At the moment about half the store is on sale so it's a nice to time to get your Nordic fashion fix. Neon lovers: orange is figuring prominently in a lot of the current collection. I stuck to more muted tones with my purchases but I admire ladies who can rock super brights. My BFF picked up a terrific large checked scarf (as well as an oatmeal coloured rolled hem jumper for her boyfriend.) I spotted a blue/grey leather colour block clutch that I very nearly bought to avoid trying to DIY my own. Given I'm still thinking about it, I'll probably have to go back and fetch it at some point. There are plenty of basics here but if you desire to be more daring, they've got that too. Think coated linen sculptured dresses, glued seams, waxed linen shrunken shirts, bold statement necklaces. COS may well be the only store in London I can't manage to leave empty handed.

It is hard to guess that this store is even remotely related to the giant Swedish chain H&M. Best in store is the little black dress. It comes in different lengths and designs but always aims to impress. I do like Cos, and I feel like I will be shopping there a lot... in a couple of years. I feel like this store is a bit too 'grown up' at times and I plan to take advantage of my freedom to wear 'silly' clothes for as longs as I can.
