Topshop ♥

[Information from Topshop.com]

Since Topshop Launched in 1964 it has become a huge fashion success, and it's brave approach to fashion has made it the no1# high street shop for both everyday shoppers & industry insiders alike.

Now with over 300 UK stores and a growing 100 international stores, Topshop can't seem to do anything wrong. It is the worlds largest fashion store on the high street and attracts over 200,000 shoppers each week!

Topshop got even bigger in 2005, when their in-house collection 'Unique' became the first high street retailer to show during London Fashion week.

The attitude, bold product and individuality of Topshops range has won it a legion of loyal fans. More big stores are planned to help the high street legend expand even further and get even more popular.

Hello lovelies
As you can see, today I thought I'd chat a bit about Topshop

I think it's more than obvious that I love Topshop, and it is one of my favourite stores. I however am aware that many people don't like Topshop, for different reasons. So, I thought I'd get your thoughts on the matter

TOPSHOP:
YAY :)
or

NA :(

The main reason I have come across why people don't like Topshop seems to be the price, and I don't think any body can get away from it. For a high street store, the prices are not cheap compared to Primark and Newlook. However compare the prices to Miss Selfridge, Warehouse and River Island I think they are roughly the same.

I am a girl who can't and probably never will be able to afford any designer clothes, I will keep admiring them from the hanger & keep dreaming. I think Topshop gives me the chance to look 'designer & catwalk' in the ranges they bring out, I personally think Topshop it very fashion forward. As well as this, I think it has a lot of key pieces that can help you create your own style. It's not all about following trends, you need to have a style of your own that will go through each trend and that you're able to put your own stamp on.

This brings me up to another point that a recall someone saying, it's that if you buy something from Topshop everyone is going to have it. I believe this is true in some sense, but it's also no different to if you buy anything on the high street, of course you will see people in it. I think it's how you put it together in an outfit, that will show how YOU want to wear it.

I'm very happy to pop into Topshop, and 9 times out of 10 I will fall in love with something (usually more than 1 thing) and I know when I wear it I will feel good about myself & what I'm wearing. I do however know Topshop is not every ones cup or hot chocolate, and of course 'each to their own'. We can't all be the same, it just wouldn't be right.

Topshop is of course in my wardrobe but shops such as, Newlook & Primark are too. I can't get enough of Primark at the moment and I think its stepped its game up and has on trend bits for cheap prices, that no one can say no to. I think the thought of Topshop attracts me more than actually buying from there. I think soon Topshop will be a very small portion of my wardrobe, and I will learn to live without it, but for now I am happy with the clothes I have bought there & will keep browsing as I always do.

I'd love to know what you all think, not just about Topshop, but about all the high street stores & your wishlist items at the moment

TAG: 'Top 10 outfits in my oh-so fabulous wardrobe'...

So Hi :)

The gorgeous Claire from http://thefashiontellersnotes.blogspot.com/ has made up an amazing tag. As she tagged me, and I thought it was very much a 'me' tag, I'm going to go ahead and do it.
All you have to do is Pick your top ten pieces of clothing from your wardrobe, say where it's from & then tag more blogging beauties to keep the tag going
So here I go....

My wardrobes:

*1* Topshop grey wool skirt, love it as you can dress it up or down & is so comfy

*2* Topshop slouchy top (its actually dark grey not black ) I love this top and its my favorite item of clothing EVER!

*3* Floral dress from Topshop. I bought this for my cousins wedding in the summer of 2008, I was 'usher' because apparently you can get female ushers :/ I did an awful job anyway

*4* My granny cardie from Primark. I love love love this, it honestly looks like a granny cardie and is just so snug. I was after one after seeing something similar on a pretty young lady in Topshop, I found this one for bargin Primark prices, so obviously was very happy

*5* Floral Topshop puff skirt. This makes me look & feel totally amazing- enough said :)

*6* Disney tiara vest top. Bought from Walt Disney World when I went in 2006, I love anything princess/crown/tiara like *7* Denim Topshop shirt. I wear this is loads of different ways and love it lots- even though a few of my male friends have a similar one*8* Another grey skirt, this time from Primark. I kept looking at this skirt every time I went in there, finally I caved in and bought it*9* Vest top from Topshop with crown on the front :) :)

*10* Spotlight by Warehouse dress- found on Ebay for £9.95 :D this made me a chuffed lady as I saw it in the actual store, then 6 months later when I was looking for a Christmas party dress- there it was, just £50 cheaper

Lacey Love...

Hi guys :)

Hope everyone is well and have enjoyed their weekends, mine was really quiet as I didn't go and see my boyfriend and I'm TRYING to be good with my money- this didn't happen so much though. I popped into town to catch up with a friend & have a hot chocolate, this included popping into a few shops. I also went to the cinema with my work girlies, to watch: Have you met the Morgans- it was totally cheesy but I loved it all the same. Hugh Grant is my favourite actor and SJP can not do anything wrong in my eyes

This is what I wore today - I love the photos because I look a lot skinner than I actually am! I love these lace Primark tank tops, they can be dressed up or down and are of course a bargin!

What I wore:
*TIGHTS - Primark
*SKIRT - Topshop Sale - £10
*VEST TOP(under lace top) - Topshop - £6
*LACE TOP - Primark - £6?
*BOOTS - Newlook - Christmas Present

LOVES FOR NOW
XOXO
