I walk in at least every two months to browse the collection at the Marylebone High street store. I find the collection very precise and specific to the suitability of the weather and the clientele that would be expected to buy from them. Its simple classic french. The brand is a luxury high-end one with clothes to suit a working profile and smart casuals. Also a small collection of belts and bags including acccessories, the store is both for men and women. Men's section on first floor shared with the womens collection.

Personally I find the style a bit too safe and uniteresting but occasionally visit the shop if I am, lets say, looking for the perfect cardigan. The staff is always very helpful and I always find this shop has a friendly atmosphere. The selection is wide including good range of accessories. If you are up for the French chick style, this is your shop.

The service in this boutique is second to none - the ladies are well dressed, have an eye for what suits, and don't cringe when you ask for a 30'. Accessories feature heavily in their collections, and you could walk in with nothing and leave with a fashion forward, but yet classic look that could take you from a girls lunch to a wedding to a cocktail date.

The owner/buyer keeps a mix of mostly recognizable names (Chloe, Vanessa Bruno, Marc by Marc Jacobs), but clothes range from upmarket casualwear (think cashmere jumpers and designer denim) to dressier pieces and there are often some vintage items thrown in. Nothing is ridiculously expensive. You'll also find a good selection of shoes, handbags, jewelry and other accessories (belts, scarves, tights).

Though this shop is now called M&Co. most people probably still think of it as McKays ( I know I…read moredo). However, the chain has come a long way in recent years and is now a great place to find ladies clothes and accessories, kid's clothes and men's clothes. The Egham branch carries the following ranges: ladies, Plus, Petite, accessories, lingerie, kids, teen girls (called Kylie), mens, shoes and home (though there's only a very small amount of homewares. I particularly like the jewellery ranges they do and have bought things here very cheaply that have been admired by friends who thought I'd spent much more. The Plus range is good too, though some of the fabrics aren't as good as they could be. The majority of it is great and I have loads of things I've bought from here.

This shop has two floor dedicated to men's fashion. They carry high-end fashion labels like Rome Gigli, Smasonite Black Label, Dsquared2, etc. They also have a pretty cool selection of trainers and have a customization service if you should want to put your initials or whatever you want. The service is good, helpful, and the prices in general are high, so if you go in with the idea of buying be ready to spend some money.

I felt it was like Jigsaw with all the down to earth colors and knitwear..well anyway, I feel like I don't quite belong to their target group that I would say are women closer to forty.. Despite being an small boutique the prices were ok and affordable, nothing too high end. The shop is pretty with wooden floors and I can imagine for the local ladies a pleasant place to go shopping.

Anyhow lets not get into that shall we; these things are a bit overrated currently and with the credit crunch one can't be bothered. Shoppers only want what their looking for and whats in their heads is to stay there, it would be physically impossible to satisy every single person who walked into a Kurt Geiger store. But this store also the largest of the brand does have a few selective brands such as Caravella, KG, Solea, Marc Jacobs, Uggs to name a few. A shoe lover I walk into the store once a month to see whats new and interesting. I personally hate the idea of retail, but good shoes are always an expression. Too many girls trying to look very gorgeous, but I only want good sales service. Standing long hours can be tight, and I feel the girls should not be overburdened. But the staff are nevertheless well trained to get you what you want. And some off season shoes are also put up on the discount goodie shelf. Overall good shoes, good store ambience, could be better the service.

I feel sorry for the girls that have to go through all that pain of wearing these! Poor toes. But because this store also has a small selection of Marc Jacobs I do pop in every now and then. Because he is my man.

The store has very trendy things and something that everyone will like. The main reason for shopping here will be that most of the time when I cannot find what I am looking for, I will pop into here for a quick look to see if I can find it in here. For instance, this Christmas, I was looking for a friend was looking for a leather jacket in size 6, and could not find it anywhere else, so, she popped into Miss Selfridges, and there it was. I do think that they the prices are expensive and I could buy same quality

The clothes are really good quality but they are a bit overpriced but I would say the shop is good if you are looking for something in particular.

The materials used are also a mixed bag: woven cotton, leather, straw, fur - it's all fair game. What stands out for me are the handbags festooned with layers of enormous sequins - square in some cases, those that mimic feathers in others, which are then adorned with large button-like baubles in an uncalculated fashion. This is also a good place to find a truly unique evening handbag that's on par with a work of art. But the nice thing is that even these don't feel so "special occasion only" that you'd let them waste away in the closet for that rare memorable eve out - you wouldn't feel a smidge guilty wearing it on a more casual date. People tend to be pretty skeptical of this brand since it lacks high-profile name-brand recognition - but I'm a fan. The thing is that each bag has such an individual personality, I know that whatever I might have purchased from them 3 years ago, I'd still be wearing out despite the fact that styles and trends have changed. Jamin Puech bags possess a classic quality and are lent a timelessness stemming from their sheer uniqueness. The staff is charming and helpful... and there's a major sale on right now... so if you haven't checked them out, this would be a good time to have a look.
