Just being nosy really! I'll start;

I'm 34 and shop at new look and asos. I've just found 'anthropologie' and would love to shop there but it's too pricy for me.

You?

Greengardenpixie · 03/05/2015 11:46

Im 47 and most of my clothes are from well lots of different places:

Whitestuff
Toast
Some Seasalt things
Asos - bought a lovely pair of crop wide leg trousers made by Ganni
A few things from Boden
Sometimes Topshop
A few things from Next - wide legs, tees etc.
Some designer things from Next - a variety of different makes.
I buy what i like not what label it is.

My favourite atm is Toast. I buy selectively and for my bodyshape and lifestyle [which is not posh!!!] I really like their dresses and love their indigo garment wash things but they are SO expensive. I recently bought their indigo garment dyed sweat which i know i will wear to death!!! and an indigo dyed tunic. Simply gorgeous, comfy and the colour is delightful! Have bought a couple of full price things on there but this is unlike me really. Will hang out for the sale!

Greengardenpixie · 03/05/2015 11:48

Oh and i equally buy things in supermarket - love a pair of embroidered hem cropped jeans - very boho!!!

Greengardenpixie · 03/05/2015 11:49

Oh they were from asda!!!

direct.asda.com/george/womens-jeans/embroidered-cropped-jeans/G004981250,default,pd.html

Great price :)

MumSnotBU · 03/05/2015 11:55

Good thread, we have very few clothes shops locally (live in rural small town) so have very little idea of brands to look for online. I find a lot of my stuff in charity shops and had not realised that Whistles and Toast were quite up market- I have bought a few bargains unknowingly!
