Review of Topshop

good selection... 
This is a very big Topshop and Topman. It has quite a lot to offer. It usually looks good despite being really busy. The staff are friendly and helpful. They do most the ranges including the Kate Moss collection.

Review of Gap

wheres the stock? 
I really like Gap clothing, but I always leave feeling a bit dissapointed when visiting this particular branch. They never seem to have much stock, and the same stuff for ages. I dont know if this is because eveyone buys it all really quickly or what. For the only Gap in the south west I would have expected a bit more. The staff are friendly and the service is good. I just wish there were more clothes in such a big store

Review of Jeans & Things

a unique service... 
This shops holds a wide variety of denim jeans. They stock some good brands such as Levi and Lee. They do both mens and womens jeans in all sorts of styles. The best thing about this shop is that they offer a free alteration service. All the jeans come in one length and then a member of staff measures how much you need taken off (if any) and then you purchase your jeans and come back in a couple of hours to collect them. For someone who is quite short this is a great service as it means I always get the perfect length jeans. The staff are really helpful and know alot about their products and offer good advise on fit

Review of Gap

discount??? i think not...
This is supposed to be a Gap outlet and therefore have discounted stock. Back in the day this was the case and you could get items that had just left the full price stores for real cheap. However Gap have appeared to have cottoned on to making money in the outlet environment. Stock is now highly priced and it only seems to have items that I have never seen in the store as they are really boring and non descript. They also stock bannnaa republic but its nothing to write home about. If you re lucky you might find something, but you will need to know what things are selling for in Gap originally. Personally, Id say wait for the Gap sales in-store as the prices go down real low and there is better stock to choose from

Review of Beyond Retro

A better vintage store
I do like vintage stores but often find them to be over priced. Beyond Retro is a bit different. It is one of the largest vintage shops in London, with bins full of scarfs and hats, rail upon rail of shirts and skirts. But it also has a section with some extra special items. These pieces are a bit rarer, older and in some cases designer. This is why Beyond Retro is somewhat better than the others. It is easier to part with your money when you know that you re getting something that you might not be able to find in every other vintage store.
