Thats a good idea - I need a new job now Grin

I like that idea, one shift a week and I would have al my clothes I needed, although I would probably owe them :)

This year I have been shopping so much in Monsoon. I never used to, but suddenly everything seems to work for me. I have bought 2 pairs jeans, a cardigan and a shirt within the last month or so. But I don't think they were that bad. £45 on jeans, same as Gap, £36 on a cardi I will wear to death - bargain, shirt £28, that I have worn 5 times already. So although it isn't cheap I don't see it as that expensive. The silk dresses are, and some of the special stuff but in my mind jeans that take 10lbs of your arse are worth way more than £45 a pair :)

last year after had dd,i bought 3 skirts and 3 tops and spent fortune, one skirt was 70 pounds. tbh,that was my first monsoon buy and it was worth. it made me feel better, i put loads weight on due pg.all my clothes were too small and i spent all day shopping and ended up buying from monsoon.
i love the quality, but they overly priced. never find thing when they ahve sale, they seem to have size 8 or size 20s.

I love monsoon, but usually can only justify buying there in the sales, particularly now with the LO. However, can recommend the sale shop in Bicester village. In fact, recommend Bicester Shopping village generally. They've got a Versace shop there which is always fun to browse - most of the stuff is hideous!!

I love Monsoon's clothes but only in Sales. I bought a fab red and chocolate brown skirt in the sale last year, and wore it on the first sunny day we had a few weeks ago. Some idiot had parked on the pavement and in getting past with the pram I RIPPED my skirt on a nail sticking out of the wall!!!!Angry&SadI need to repair it but it will never be the same.

Their jeans are really good if you are curvy, but not as funky as River Island jeans.
