If you are 33ish, please can I ask where you shop?

[BoiledPiss]

I went to the TCentre the other day and went in various different shops, but i was surrounded by cropped length tops and really short shorts and skirts.
I like the looks of the stuff on the hangers but I wouldn't get away with a cropped top, even layered.
I decided that i am too old for H&M and DP but not old enough for M&S, I would like to look stylish but I really have no idea where to look!

I am 5ft 9 and size 12/14

Thanks oh wise MN'ers :)

Im couple of years younger but not by much. I shop in new look, h and m, very catalogue, ax paris, boohoo, ebay etc.

I'm most happy in ted baker, french connection, lk bennett, reiss and always venture in primark for a bargain!

I'm 33. Usually ASOS, Debenhams, H&M.

Oliver Bonas is nice for dresses, and Yumi.

River Island ,Boohoo.com,New Look and EBay
Some things from Tesco ,the odd little top or skinny jeans for running about with the kids

I'm 33 and I shop anywhere I see things I like!

For work I mainly wear Next and New Look.
I get everything else from Oasis, River Island, H&M, asos and DP.

I also have a few staple things I got from M&S who do great jeggings and the odd top.

I love looking in urban outfitters, all saints, miss selfridge and just don't pigeon hole myself to just certain places.

Fat face, white stuff and joules - but only sales or outlet centre.

Brands I like include Gap, H and M, Tommy Hilfiger, some Topshop stuff but have to be selective.

36

I go to new look, H&m

For some work clothes (easily ruined) tesco

Mainly oasis for tops - love them

Dresses from Hobbs. Bought two cape style cardis from jogsaw and m&s recently

Zara nice too.

Wow thankyou for the replies, I always forget about River Island!

Rioja I am the same, I look everywhere and buy what I like from where it is sold, but I just felt like I was looking around a teenagers wardrobe when I went to all my normal haunts!

So are you all wearing cropped tops as you type?

Ooh Oasis, another one I always forget!

I don't have a crop too but plenty of my friends with flatter tummies than me wear them with high waisted skirts or trousers, they can look really classy!

H&M have got some really nice stuff in at the moment, as have Oasis and RI especially.
What sort of things are you in need of? Work?

I am 35, and shop mainly in H&M, Zara, River Island, Topshop.

I am 34 and get most stuff from New Look or Primark. I really really like Warehouse and Oasis, but only when funds allow. Get odd bits from George, Tesco, DP.

Oasis, banana republic, some top shop and M&S.

H&M, new look and primark. I don't look great or put together, mainly scruffy so maybe I am looking in the wrong places.
I never know what to wear or how to wear it and feel ridiculous in everything so I'm watching with interest.

I have recently lost some weight and toned up a little, i just need every day clothes really, work is sorted.

I live in jeans and a vest currently!

gaggia I'm no style guru t if you get a base colour you like (I love navy) you can work around it. I have navy and white tops etc and a navy wrap that I chuck over it if I go out etc. you don't need much. I also have a navy blazer and scarves. Maybe you might like brown or black and go from there.

Buy a decent coat and jacket for winter, wear earrings, scarves. I used to feel like you but not so much anymore.

H&M, Topshop, New Look, Dorothy Perkins. All online though. The selection in the shops is crap.

Thank you mrsgrumble I wear a lot of faded bobbly black but I like navy a lot.

Thats really good advice re coat and scarves I think I would feel a bit better in a decent coat. I'll check some out this week.

New Look, though only really the tall range, Next, but not the mumsy bits, Sainsburys, see previous comment, Tesco, Primary for T shirts and plain tops and scarves, Boohoo, once you can avoid the polyester! Oh and sports direct at times. I also make a few things. I live in plain tops and cardis but will jazz them up with scarves or necklaces.

I'm 32 and 5 ft 8 but got quite the curvy booty and hips. I'm a 16 bottom as can't get smaller over my bump, but my waist is smaller so always need a belt. I have moved onto accessories from a base like Mrsgrumble said. I have a constant supply of white t shirts! I would never be able to wear crop tops or leggings as trousers, I've had this booty since I was 14 lol.

I feel like an inbetweenie. Not old enough for this but too old for this! Ebay is a good place to go as well.

House of Fraser, Christian Loboutin, chanel, Dior plus charity shops, I like nice things but I love a bargain!

Oh and I bought a black blazer with 3/4 sleeves that has turned back cuffs on and I love that. Goes with all sorts. Funky but age appropriate!

I'm nearly 34 and I shop everywhere! I'm surprised you think dorothy perking is too young. I love lots of things from there.

I also love primark, asos, new look and also yours which is from size 14. (I'm size 16 and 5ft 7). I particularly like their dresses because they are still very trendy but are usually a bit longer which is quite flattering.

Online I have a browse on boden quite a lot and mistral sometimes. I rarely buy though. Too expensive for me..... !
