Review of French Connection
28 May 08, 13:57
Sporadic service 
I really like french connection stuff, although it is often overpriced. A good tip is to hang on for sale time as there are always really good reductions. This store isn't massive but has a good location close to Selfridges in the Bullring. I have sometimes had really good service but sometimes you have to hang around at the till.

Review of Urban Outfitters

Stylish but pricey
I really like the stuff in urban outfitters but it is very over priced. There is a sale rail so you might get a bargain but cardigans and dresses are £45 +. It's also quite young and skinny. In addition to the clothes there's a good selection of gifts and cards, like carefully selected books, CDs, jewellery. The changing rooms are nice.

Review of H & M

Busy Store
H&M in the bullring is good destination for reasonably priced clothes. It has recently gained a menswear section (chaps previously had to trek to new street or Martineau place) but it’s only really for teenage boys. There are also maternity, plus size sections in addition to women’s wear and young trend. Be warned there are always huge queues for changing rooms and tills.

Review of Vintage UK

Too cool for school 
If you like the vintage look this is the place for you. A large warehouse in digbeth, painted bright yellow so you can't miss it, chock full of vintage delights. For men there are plenty of vintage 501s, suits, shirts and jackets for ladies there is an abundance of 80s glitter, shoes, bags and accessories. It is a bit too cool for school though so be prepared if you are the type to get intimidated by indie hipsters. Prices are reasonable and they only take card payment for items over £10.
