If you are 50, where do you shop?

Thanks.

Recently I have been pleasantly surprised by improvements in the stock at M and S
Whistles
Baukjen
Wyse London
Jigsaw
Oliver Bonas
Me and Em

Recently it’s been:-

H&M - but 2 items returned as rubbish
Whistles (last year)
Hush
Tu at Sainsbury’s (fab summer dresses, sweatshirts, knickers etc)
Tesco (dresses, blouses)
John Lewis

In past few years it was more Arket and Cos sometimes Zara &Other Stories more so.

I’ve seen some lovely brands on the What Are You Wearing Today recent thread

Oh and local boutiques and Silkfred.

Fat face
White Stuff
Weird Fish
(They're my three favourites)
M&S
Next
Apricot

Primark & Tesco for basics!

Just turning 50 next week.

Forgot to say the odd gem in Primark but getting less and less.
ASOS sometimes - again less and less nice stuff.

Tu clothing at Sainsbos is great, especially underwear. Half the price of M & S. A few years ago they had a collaboration with Gok Wan and i bought a fairly basic black cardigan. But the compliments i've had when wearing it -- it's not long and droopy, just normal length but with pretty buttons and an unusual knit.
Also 'Mumsnet Swears By' recommendations! They're quite often reduced too.
Apart from that -
Seasalt
Lands end
Safari, if I'm pushing the boat out.

I just ordered some shortish dresses from Joe Browns (nothing too mad), loads from M&S, some Boden and Hush.

Massimo Dutti
Jigsaw
Cos
John Lewis
Brora in sale (though quality inconsistent)
Cefinn for workwear - not cheap ( to put it mildly) but mainly washable, so no dry-cleaning costs.
Toast

Hush very occasionally because a lot of their stuff falls apart after 5 minutes.

God knows, I'm not fashionable, but I draw the line at Joules and Seasalt - both very ageing IMO.

I sometimes see an item from Cefinn that might suit a friend or acquaintance with milder tastes than mine - but then I think of all the European stores from which I can no longer order easily, post-Brexit. And all my European colleagues and former fellow students - thrown into uncertainty and disarray. And I remember how drab England was before we became European.

So I couldn’t bear to put a single penny in the Cameron’s pockets.

Did Samantha Cameron call the referendum? I must have missed that.

Blaming women for men's actions is misogyny.

Agree with poster who said that M and S has upped their game recently. Three generations of my family got stuff from there last week - a coat for my Mum, skirt for me and rather fabulous leather/ sheepskin jacket for DD.
