If they gave out ‘Buyer’ awards then Tomo (the buyer here) would win it. God they have so much great, great stuff, it’s expensive but so worth it. They were the first stockists in London of Cheap Monday jeans, or so I hear from The Captain. Now The Captain is NOT one of the beautiful [...]

I’ve said it before but I’ll say it again, the current climate and by climate I mean the eco-bender we’re all on not the recession (I don’t have any money now but I didn’t have any before either) means I feel not on justified but holier than thou buying one-off creations from London and Tokyo’s [...]

I love this little shop, it’s full of weird, colourful stuff, it could be the official outfitters for Central Saint Martins fashion students as most of the stock is totally over the top but makes the shop look good. Of course the only way to atone for being a little overdressed is by being always [...]

“To be well dressed is not to have expensive clothes or the right clothes. You can wear rags, so long as they suit you. Style is not elegance but consistency” this comes to mind every time a see a Japanese person, you know what I’m talking about. They are the only people that can wear [...]

Oh good Lord, I’m having another total freakin’ break down, I just spent £100 on a t-shirt. Okay so the cotton feels like silk and the heavy studding weighs down like chainmail, actually no this is a bargain it’s so beautiful. I tried it on thinking I CAN NOT spend £100 on a t-shirt, I [...]

My secret spot for finding one-off pieces super cheap. Apple Tree may not stock the highest quality clothes but it’s a small compromise for handmade clothes at a snip. It has a collection of local designers who have stalls along Ladbroke Grove but at least here you don’t have to try on clothes in front [...]

Hoxton Boutique is great despite the odds stacked against it, that being located in Hoxton square (you’d presume all the price tags were sky-high) and having ‘Hoxton’ in the title. It’s not overly expensive and the staff are approachable and like to chat about the weather or anything for that matter as I don’t think [...]

I hate sales. The whole shop looks ugly, everything is rammed together, basically aesthetics go to hell, I’d rather pay full price than have to deal with that shit. When I shop I like the whole experience to be pleasurable. Korean owned Hurwundeki makes this so. They never over cram the rails, having only one [...]

I can’t afford any of the clothes or actually anything here for that matter but I always end up buying something to fill a silence with the beautiful boy (but doesn’t he know it – oh bore!) that works here. When we run out of things to say and I can’t think of another compliment [...]
