i'm 32 this year, just interested in your ages, mainly due to some of the links on here, such as laura ashley etc and wondering what the average age is round here

45 here.
And I don't care about the name of the shop - I'm not a 'fan' of LA any more than I'm a 'fan' of anywhere else - but I have occasionally bought stuff there, just as I'd buy stuff anywhere.
I tend to look in as many shops as poss ont eh rare occasions I shop (although I do draw the line at Country Casuals).

I feel at that weird age where I am too old to shop in Top Shop, River Island and Oasis, but not yet old enough for Wallis and M&S - what else is there in the way of affordable clothing?!

34 - and a fully paid up member of Laura Ashley (although mostly for furnishings).

And I don't much care for Laura Ashley. I had a bridesmaid's dress made from LA fabric in 1977 and TBH most of it looks the same as then And I also shared a flat with a hippy LA-fanatic in the 80s and we were surrounded by curtain, throws, cushion covers made of the stuff. It left it's mark

  1. I don't think I've ever worn Laura Ashley. I am of the generation that was bowled over by the Next directory. That lovely glossy catalogue! Delivery to your house in a van!

32 in a month. Oh, and I hate clothes shopping, not only LA.

BeauticianNotMagician · 14/03/2009 13:40

28 and i feel the same as Bumperlicioso.

BitOfFun · 14/03/2009 13:46

35, and Laura Ashley is far too chavvy for me [prim]

InSearchOfLostKeys · 14/03/2009 14:52

Just turned 32 too, no fan of LA.

Looks like the same material is used for the furnishings as well as the clothes. Why would you want to look like you are wearing cutains?

InSearchOfLostKeys · 14/03/2009 14:52

curtains even
