If you could name one shop that is your spiritual shopping home, what would it be?

[Caz10]

And if I may be so cheeky, can you tell me how old you are?!

I went shopping today for the 1st time in months if not years, and felt totally out of place! Felt old in Top Shop and River Island, couldn't face being too cheap and nasty in Primark/New Look (although I did pick a few things up there ) and felt a bit depressed when I felt mildly more at home in Next...

I know you need to pick up things from different places, but there is something comforting about knowing that you will generally always find something in a certain shop.

i am 33 btw and no longer know where I shop...

arse end of nowhere shopping means I have no spiritual home shopping wise - Gap disappeared sadly, but I do like h&m, Topshop, Monsoon and sometimes dorothy perkins and new look - I wouldn't say I am blessed with a stylish wardrobe.

I am always looking at clothes online too.

Shoe shopping is generally much more fun than clothes shopping. I am 36 - what kind of clothes are you looking for Caz?

Fenwicks.

I'm 39.

John Lewis (and Debenhams too) mainly because they have a mix of labels including some young and funky ones, and you can get haberdashery in the same visit!

I'm 40 and I'd say Jigsaw and Topshop. If I had loads of spare cash then Liberty would be my favourite place - and the rose jam in the café that you get with a cream tea is divine. Sorry, not strictly relevant.

another vote for John Lewis, and House of Fraser in Manchester. Don't often get to the latter though, or have the money!!
Also like some Jack Wills but only on eBay. Actually, eBay is probably my fave shop atm...
I am 41 btw.

Ikea. If I had the place to myself.

River Island but not at the moment and mabe never again They have embraced the eightees- unfortunately.

It was River Island that actually terrified me the most yesterday! 1st shop I went into, after months away, and it was like walking into some bizarro timeslip...I have never felt so out of place and confused!

Marks and Spencer I'm 35

TK Maxx. My mother's nickname is Bar Code Cancelled and I was raised to love a bargain, but I like beautiful clothes which last. TK Maxx has made my life complete

We have a new Top Shop in town (oh-the excitement). They had 80s style bodies (ie like baby ones) in a delightful floral pattern in there today. At least I had the decency to wear plain coloured ones in 1989. (I shudder to think of the VPL that I must have had

Reiss. I heart Reiss.

But more realistically from a budgetary point of view, Zara.

Sorry, I'm 32.

I'm 42 and White Stuff is mine, mine all MINE!!!!!

I used to love Reiss, when I was thinner , although actually I have a pre babies Reiss skirt on today

and I'm nearly 40 . (And agree- lots of White Stuff is nice at the moment- bought a dress there (well- in John Lewis)the other day although am thinking it might be 'age inappropriate' )

Ooh, show us tv - bet I've already got it too...

I'd love to say Armani or Chanel but it's probably the bit of the John Lewis basement that sells children's lunchboxes. Saddo.

Peter Jones

"this" and actually it was from (No 1 spiritual home)Peter Jones rather than John Lewis

H & M cheap but stylish and can find some alternative looking things in there. I am 29 btw.

Abrican fabric shop - i make a lot of mine so i can get the exact fit i want.

opp meant to add 30yo now. Still getting used to saying that

Household / curtains etc - John Lewis
Clothes - a 'country' clothing store (think tweed) I know, but you did say 'spiritual'
Food - M&S

My age is a secret but I am feel old.
