John Lewis personal shopper - Bluewater or Westfield Stratford

Hi
I have a bit of money to spend on myself and have decided to go for a personal shopper at JL. However I've never been to either Bluewater or Stratford - my 2 nearest department stores. So have no idea what the brand offering is and size of the stores.
Has anyone has personal shopping at either of these, any recommendations for stylists? I'm 36, 5ft 2 and looking for casual/day wear rather than work stuff
Thank you

Haven’t done personal shopper but Bluewater is my local and although Westfield has different stores, I really don’t like how busy it is and I found it full of big gangs of kids. Bluewater is nicer in my opinion and the John Lewis is good.

I only had a personal shopper once and it did no go well.
A chap offered his services outside Waitrose and scooted off with my card before I could say "Piss Off".
He came back with twelve (12 sic) cans of Stella, a huge piece of Cheddar, a pork pie (Melton), a black pudding and, if I remember correctly, two bananas and a melon.
He said he lost my list and did it all from memory.
I only wanted a bunch of coriander.

Bluewater is the bigger of the two, so will have much more choice

@Whatwudyoudo1i went to Bluewater one today. They’re having a refit so a lot of the areas have hoarding round. I’d maybe wait until that’s all finished as some of the areas were smaller than usual. You want to make the most of it 😊
