So where do you buy clothes from (and how old are you?)

[bigTillyMint]

Following on from the other thread, I need some more inspiration for retail therapy

buy childrens clothes, bedding never looked at white co for women clothes though

Am 34

Supermarkets mainly. And if somewhere has a particularly good sale ie top for £5 I will take a lot.

I'm 33 and get clothes from;

Next
Asda
h&m
TK Maxx
Top Shop
Debenhams
White Stuff
Monsoon
New Look

h&m

i'm 33.

i buy most of my stuff from charity shops, mainly because i'm poor, but also because i constantly hate current fashions! (and the shapes are btter too: most shops now assume that women have got thick waists in comparison to their hips, but i don't (or my hips are huge...))

knickers from M&S because the nearest John Lewis is miles and miles and miles away.
tights from John Lewis normally, but i've been getting some from h&m when they're patterned.
i bought some nice bras in next, but i wouldn't use them for anything else.

Zara for cardigans and jumpers because they're just normal, not assymetrical or short or weird etc that seems to be the fashion.

Am 38.

Hobbs for work stuff and jeans.
Boden for tops.
Very occasionally M&S.
Knit my own jumpers.
Josef Seibel for shoes.
Radley for handbags (usually pressies from DH).

Having said that, since DS was born (8mo) have only bought BFing tops/bras until last couple of weeks when acquired two pairs of shoes and a pair of jeans. I am definitely in the scruffy mummy camp.

I'm 37. Also short which limits my options for jeans and trousers.

White Stuff - tops and skirts
White Company - basic t-shirts and PJs
Fat Face - tops (mainly winter ones)
Boden - tops, dresses, jackets, accessories BUT less so since they made their tops longer
M&S - jeans (not particularly nice but the only ones that fit me), underwear
Kew - t shirts
Fig Leaves - underwear
John Lewis, Gap - occasional random things

Do almost all my clothes shopping online.

I miss Principles.

DH bought me a fab dress from Next on Monday with some black boots.

M&S
Next
Monsoon sale

That really is it as he doesnt like me getting stuff from Tesco anymore!!!

M&S (autograph and their long trousers always fit me)
Boden
Wrap
John Lewis
Banana Republic (when I am in London)
the occasional foray into Coast & Monsoon

shoes:
clarks
dune
new look (ditto GetOrf re comfortable heel)

Oh goodness yes GossipMonger I miss Principles too. Another shop where their long leg trousers ALWAYS fitted. Dunno where I am going to get my jeans from now thay have gone

I'm 34.

The loss of Principles actually depresses me a bit when I do go shopping!

I am 38.

Debenhams confuses me.

as does M&S really as I seem to look at clothes that 85 yr old women are looking at!

Just looking at what I am wearing today (work) -

White Stuff cord skirt (bought last winter in sale)
Tesco blouse
Sainsbury's cardigan
Clarks long wedge boots

Otherwise - Ebay, Next sometimes (only in sales), M&S, River Island (nice cardis)

I actually HATE clothes shopping and do most online. (am 42 btw).

Anything that takes my fancy from anywhere I happen to see it.
Recent purchases from eBay, m&s, primark, my-wardrobe, Isabella Oliver, brora, White stuff (l/s tees and yoga pants) Toast and Zara.
Turning 37 at Christmas

There is a horrid dark boarded up shop now sandwiched between H&M and Topshop. Sometimes I stand pressed up against the dirty window and whimper for their long leg trousers and nice and perfectly affordable jewellery which made excellent Christmas presents.

Oh- Gap and chazza shops too. Love a bargain

I miss the sales assistants in my local Principles who always looked lovely in their Principle clothes and inspired me to try their looks.

They werent stick thin either. One was a good size 18ish but always looked lovely and I used to steal her ideas.

I'm 38.

I DO buy clothes from:

Uniqlo (LOVE this place for decent quality, inexpensive basics)
Whistles
Zara
Massimo Dutti
Joseph (good for small sizes)

I dress pretty plainly, but accessorize my outfits to make them interesting

WHOA! Principles is gone?

Clearly I need to get out more. Unsuprisingly, and much to my disgust, I have mostly been buying my clothes from Sainsburys of late

I really miss Principles, only place I could find nice fitting jeans. I'm currently wearing a pair of Principles jeans and when this pair have had it I think I may be suicidal.

I've recently bought from - Toast (usually get stuff in the sale but couldn't wait for boots); Etsy, Ebay, Primark, Peacocks, Fred Perry (sale on website and outlet shop). Oh and New Look. I also bought some stuff from Whistles but took it back - their refund policy is dead good and staff were nice. I am 36.

what was principles,dont remember it.sorry

I got my most favourite wrap dress from principles 4 years ago and I wish I had bought two now as it was so flattering and i never saw anyone else wearing it and every single solitary time I wore it, strangers would compliment me....

Mostly I buy from charity shops because I don';t neccessarily love High Fashion, I am skint but I also love the challenege of dressing well for little money.
but I actually love Asda jeans (I mean the best fitting black skinnies for £12??!)
I also have had some amazing jumpery bargains from Asda.
If I have any money I love fat Face, Joe Browns and even the odd Boden skirt. New Look is fab for little dresses, M&S is fab for leggings.
