White Stuff- is there any hope?

[QueenoftheNights]

About 10 years ago I loved WS. Not the droopy skirts, but they did do some nice tops, cardis and jumpers.

Now, I rarely buy anything because it's all overpriced and usually full of garish prints in weird colours. My local store is inhabited by women aged 70+ who browse the racks with their bored husbands looking on!

Last week I spotted a nice sleeveless cotton top for this hot weather- a cotton jersey vest- £30! Every cardi is at least £45 but the quality isn't there - they bobble or go out of shape and develop holes on the seams. Anyone else share my disappointment?

I like monsoon in the sale
They had some lovely sleeveless tops and beach cover ups this yr. Dd age 8 got a fab dress there last yr and wore it to parties etc . And we got a lovely 3 piece swim set for her including a long sleeved swim top when it got ridiculously hot on hols and i was afraid she would burn ! Monsoon is honestly one of my fave 'sale shops ' . Stopped buying ff but do buy for my 2 DC. Their hoodies for kids are great quality. You can wash and wash them. Fantastic !!

I like Monsoon knitwear. It lasts really well and is quite reasonably priced for the quality.

I always used to like their clothes, but my pet bug bear is the 3/4 length sleeves: hugely unflattering if you are large-chested. And the boxy style too.

I did get a lovely dress out of there for my summer holidays; but I got it in the sale for £35 & would not have paid £60+ pounds for it full-price.
