I have been buying bits from Uniqlo maybe H&M.
I need a couple of nice new bits such as cigar trousers /pencil skirts/ dresses blouses and shirts. I don't mind spending a bit more on nicer things.

I've managed to get a few nice bits out of Primark over the years, and Next but honestly I'm stuck on this too!

I second Dorothy Perkins. I can only find trousers there, and Wallis occasionally, that fit my stubby legs.

I get a lot from Dorothy Perkins, I love their ankle grazer trousers, lots of choices for colour. I've found the odd nice top in Matalan or primark, but a lot of my better tops come from either next, oasis, warehouse or Debenhams.

The Gap bi-stretch trousers are the best ever. Only trousers I think have actually fit in my adult life.
My dresses are mostly Boden and Whistles. I’m 30 and a size 12 sometimes 14, 5”2.

I've got some great pieces (blazer and some trousers) from mango recently. I usually get blouses from h&m. Next can be good but the sizing is very variable!

If you can afford to spend more, I would recommend TM Lewin, Phase Eight, Hobbs, Jigsaw or Whistles.

Hobbs. It is expensive but the quality is excellent.

Zara for most things and Whistles when I'm feeling flush.

I really like Hobbs but I can't afford it so buy second hand from Ebay. I'm quite curvy so find the cut so much better than H&M or NEXT.

Warehouse, oasis and phase eight. Zara have gone downhill in my opinion. Phase eight are good. Cakvin klein for straight trousers.

Jaeger Hobbs and whistles
Sometimes via outlet stores eBay or charity shops
I also shop at tkmaxx far too much!

I would say 60% of my wardrobe comes from ROMAN
Something for everyone.
Decent quality but not overpriced.
Sizing is good and clothes are very flattering.

Bought some lovely pieces from ebay over the years, that includes lots of second hand branded items which are in good condition

@hellsbellsmelons are they reliable for deliveries? I’m not sure if it’s them or SHEIN I read about having a really poor service.

I like the look of them though
