Quite surprised

As expected
I was actually quite surprised by Mambo. I'd never visited one of their shops in the past, and was slightly put off by their style of clothing, which usually involves putting their branding all over the clothes. I don't want to walk around with a massive advert across my chest or arse.
But, over the weekend, I was after some summer clothes and thought that I might as well give it a go. Mainly because there was a 50% off sale, so I thought I might get a bargain. And I did.
As with Topman and their ilk, you have browse through a lot of rubbish to find something nice. You have to wonder who buys 90% of their clothes sometimes. Luckily I did find things that I could wear without looking completely stupid.
The store isn't amazingly organised though. It's very hard to tell where the women's and men's sides of the shops are. I kept picking up things that were meant for girls. I even bought a belt that I realised later had 'Mambo Goddess' on. Meh. Anyway, you can get good clothes here, you just need to sort through the stuff, and not buy things that are meant for the opposite sex.
