Clothes shopping

Most of my clothes came from M&S. I said 'came' as they're not very recent but last well.
Other outfits came from White Stuff last year.

Seasalt, White Stuff, M&S,the occasional independent “boutique” but being honest, a lot online

A memory popped up on Facebook yesterday from eleven years ago. I realised that I was wearing the same jumper! I think that Covid didn't help my shopping and now my back is playing up so I am a bit limited to online shopping.

We do have a TK Maxx near us but I really can't be bothered to wade through everything. Even when it was newly opened the sizes were not in any sort of order.

I wish we had Dunnes in England, I always head straight there when in Ireland.

I was just going to say the same but also to add Kettlewell - though their prices have gone a bit bonkers lately.

Most of my clothes are years old. I loathe clothes shopping.

I live in jeans and sweaters in the winter, shorts and tee shirts in the summer.

One or two decent dresses for (rare) outings and funerals.

Since retiring, I’m usually at home, swimming pool, quick grocery shop round town….

Don’t want or need much else in the way of stuff to wear. And what I do have never seems to wear out or look too shabby.

John Lewis (has many makes under their banner including their own), Crew who have beautifully finished dresses and tops. M&S, who seem to be improving.

Just thought of Crew too and Joules.

Mostly Charity shops- can't remember when I last bought something new to wear, probably a year ago for a funeral.

Along similar lines to some of the above:

Boden and Kettlewell for colours
Barbour/Crew for the country/sailing look
M & S
Trying Joe Brown's currently, but not convinced
Saint James in France and French market stalls

another vote for crew, and landsend

If you live in North Yorkshire, Bella di Notte have a shop in Malton.
Otherwise shop with them online. Free delivery, free returns. Excellent customer service. Good quality ladies clothes in a range of prices.
I buy from them and also from most of the suppliers mentioned already.
There's Fat Face too. It's the only clothes shop left in our small Oxfordshire town.

I buy mainly from Hobbs and Kettlewell but buy trousers from Robell online. I tend to buy knitwear and tops from Bella di Notte although I did buy 2 pairs of trousers from them before Christmas. Similar to Robell but a bit cheaper.

I buy M&S online, Cotton Traders, LandsEnd, and more recently Chums.
Don’t like shopping in actual shops, too hot, crowded, and can never find what I want.

I love clothes, my go to shops (online & high street) are Mint Velvet, Boden, White Company, Hobbs, Joules, M & S along with L K Bennett for a dressy occasion.

I hope I never tire of clothes, footwear and accessory shopping.

Thanks to RosieandherMaw I had a brief dalliance with Sahara, but as I am short and petite, (apart from my boobs) I unfortunately found their clothes swamped me.

Charity shops, Vinted, eBay (for “Made in Italy” summer stuff), H and M occasionally. Depends on your style, and your lifestyle. We go out walking a lot, so clothes suitable for that. Rarely go to smart “do’s” these days, so just a few dresses for those times. I like comfortable clothes, but with a bit of edge - Heavenly Feet boots, denim jackets in different colours, interesting scarves, etc.

I like the look of “sixtyvibe” on Instagram

I'm another Hobbs customer.

Exactly the same Calendargirl.
Our friends of all age groups use Vinted, recycling and reuse.

I detest clothes shopping and buy a lot of my stuff from charity shops, not that I buy a lot of clothes these days.
I have plenty of clothes and I have no inclination to keep up with any fashion trends (Never have done)
When I was 15 and about to leave school, my mum wanted me to work in one of her two boutiques, I told her I have no interest in clothes and went to work in a local factory…..😁

I'm not a massive fan of shopping and always tend to veer towards M&S, especially for trousers / jeans.
Only because I know they will fit me....

I recently discovered Kit and Kaboodle online and have bought a few bits from them which Ive been really happy with.

The more fashion led stores like Next are majoring on frills, flowery, and short tops at the moment, none of which I like, but I wouldn’t give up looking because no doubt next year different styles will be in fashion.

I usually know exactly what I’m looking for, which brings its own challenges, I use all the ones listed here, and I’ve also had some success recently with Albaray, who do particularly nice knitwear. I also love Celtic&Co.

I am 83 and agree with Ziggy. My impression is that most clothes for women remind me of the post war era. They look miserable with poor materials, granny type styles and nothing that says “buy me. Did manage to buy a dressI liked made from a lovely soft cotton made by White Stuff with an attractive pattern. That was a one off though. I wander around and go home with nothing.

Believe me at 77 the main interest is how easy it is to get in and out of dresses 😂. I bought a dress from ‘Finery’ at Christmas and need assistance to get out of it, button through from now on I suppose.
TKMaxx can be worth a trawl through I got a cashmere jumper the other day for very little.
