PROMOD - FRANCE

I thought Promod would be a good shop to start with thats out of the country, and thats really because it gives sizes from most countries in europe - Which I think is pretty cool. Another thing we have to remember is that french fashion is TOTALLY different to British fashion, thus if you look on their website you may not see something and be utterly amazed. But when you look through I can garuntee you'll see something that will go with something in your wardrobe... it's somewhat reliable. I like this shop and would reccomend it to everyone visting the country. 7/10.

Beyond Retro - Brighton - London - Stockholm - Göteborg


Whilst most vintage stores are just a one off in you're cities backstreets, but not Beyond retro. This vintage Superstore has seven locations across Europe which means that theres always a chance to check it out. With Celebrities going in left right and center - it's literally beckoning all star stalkers to take a peek as well. If I'm to be brutally honest, naturally, I have to point out the faults with all the shops I reveiw, What I find with Beyond Retro is that because it recieves so much attention it's prices are well above what I'm used to spending, but apart from that I really think that beyond retro has got a great thing going for them. 7/10

Asda - 523 locations in the U.K

Asda - The trusty supermarket with really nice clothes... Founded in 1965 in leeds then Wal-mart took over at some point after that. Let me get straight to the point, Asda is the second best supermarket in England (after sainbs). I've always been able to come out with some sort of bargin in the past year - which I LOVE, and the 'World foods' bit is the best. I'm always getting told that Wal-mart is some crazy monster whos racist and you have to know the Wal-mart tune to get an interveiw (mental.innit) but that doesn't put me off - I really really love the clothes in george and I'm pretty sure that me and mother dearest spent around £80> on clothes and food there (mostly clothes). I think that proves that Asda is one of the bestest supermarket chains EVER. 8/10

Tilly Kempf - Forbidden Planet - Units 4&5 Clifton Heights Bristol BS8 1EJ

Forbidden planet - Were you find men and women alike getting trapped in graphic novels or playing out the whole twilight books with little Bella & Edward figurines....
I've recently started running out of ideas of all the places I so I've been asking everyone I know for shops I could check out... So here it goes..
Myself, I'm a in-the-closet-nerd so if I ever get the chance-I will go in and a snoop. Although I've always thought that the price of everything in shops like forbidden planet is overpriced and only using the film that one of the flimsy bits of plastic may or may not have been in to sell at stupid prices..
all in all i give it a 6/10

And Zita gave me - T O P S H O P - Pretty much any shopping vicinity near you...

Topshop has been seeping it's way into womens wardrobe for 47 years. Prettyy much every girl I know has splashed out on something in there, wether it be cute frilly knickers or a flimsy jumpsuit everyone wants a piece of the Topshop pie.
Personally I think it's overpriced and not worth it (mainly because I'm a shopping snob who hates the highstreet). I can definantly see it's appeal, with so many people in the celebrity spotlight wearing there "decent priced" trendy clothes makes everyone want to be wearing the same thing - It's exactly the same thing that happend to Reiss and Warehouse, as soon as Kmiddy started wearing their clothes it was the mecca for every 30-something wannabe princess....
Anyhow, I do find myself popping into topshop on occasion to check out whats in store for the season.
My score for Topshop is only - 4/10
Mostly because I think it's too expensive - and it confuses me when I walk out of H&M with bargins
Thats all, Peace
