Filled with cute floaty dresses, feminine shoes and floral accessories this shop is strictly for girlie girls. With a handful of hippy tossed in with a dollop of trendiness - Pink Lemons stock a variety of brands from French Connection to Numph. My favourite part of the shop is, inevitably, their sales rail which is full of hidden gems at up to 50% off - which is a blessing, as the prices would be out of my budget otherwise.

I was pleasantly surprised with the quantity and quality of the clothes that Pink Lemon stock. They…read morehave some high street names, but also some more unique items for those looking for something a bit different. Apparently they are one of the only shops in Bristol which stocks items from the 'cool' Danish label Numph so if you are a fan, make a beeline for here! It's quite reasonably priced at around £35 for a dressy top. But if you're on a budget, definitely ask when their next sample sale is as its a good way to snap up a bargain. In fact, whenever I have walked past there is always some sort of deal or sale going on.

This shop exists quite discreetly in a lane off Park Street. Seeing as Park Street has many…read moreclothing shops which are quite popular, every time I try to explain where Seven is, I draw blank looks. When I say, it's right next to The Woods, people usually nod and say 'Yeah, we know The Woods, but I didn't know there was anything next to it..' Well there is! A shop just bursting with flavour, style and individuality. The next time you're shopping up Park Street, or drinking at The Woods, keep your eye out for this graffiti laden shop and enter its grotto of awesome tees, caps, shoes and posters; some produced by the designers at Seven, others by independent Bristol designers and also a handpicked selection of other imports. This is just a really cool shop - small but everything in there is ace.

This place is cool…read more This shop reminds me of the little vintage/independant boutiques I used to rummage through during my time in East Berlin. You access it by walking down the stairs from the front door into a small shop area. There's pretty cool music playing and a small selection of clothes which isn't too confusing to navigate. Check out the little suitcase of vintage items right by the stairs, definitely a few cool finds in there, all for £10, and above that there are some awesome trainers. If you're looking for a designer tee, they print their own, for RRP of £25 but you can find sale ones for as little a tenner. It's a very low-fi shop; they don't even have a till, but appreciate any custom they get and are really grateful and friendly.

Terrible move removing the tills and replacing with self check outs…read more The queue was so long for the till that was open as you can not take returns to self check out. the one staff member on the tills who served me was super miserable . ( low staff moral I'm guessing). Then to find the exit entrance at the back of the store has now closed permanently due to store theft.. idea... put a security guard on the exit entrance. this is extremely concerning from a health and safety perspective as a emergency exit, everyone running for the stairs in a fire of a building of that size is dangerous. do better primark!

Hello. My name's Jenni. I'm 23. And I'm a Primark-holic. I'm embarrassed, and deeply ashamed. But…read moretheir disposable fashion and cheaper than cheap prices are addictive. I've tried to shop more ethically, honest I have. But something about this store keeps driving me back. I thought I was cured when all Bristol had to offer was the worst of the worst Primark's, with their poor selection and disorganised layout. But then they opened a super-store sized outlet and I just couldn't resist. I'm not saying it's the best one I've been to, and I've been to MANY, but I've never come out empty handed. My favourite thing about the brand new shiny Primark is their range of accessories which take up almost a third of the ground floor. Their underwear department is a bit lacking, but their sparkly dresses and cheap hosiery more than make up for it. The queues are still long, and you need a patient of a saint to trawl through the rails, but compared to most Primark stores this one is well managed and easy to navigate.

Every woman I have introduced to the NewFlower shop has loved it. As they mostly deal in woman's…read morewear they are in a better position to judge than I am. But I thought it was worth mentioning how much they all loved it. They have a great range of light summery dresses made with beautiful fabrics and patterns. My knowledge of dresses is somewhat limited by they had a huge collection of different styles and lengths. They also had amazing price tags attached, with some reading £10! I actually did wish they had such a great range of men's clothes, but alas we only had a choice of 'comedy' T-shirts that were not almost as classy or elegant as the woman's choices. I honestly believe any woman who had a look at some of the clothes at Newflower would find something they would really love, especially for the summer. They had a beautiful range of mini skirts...I thought about how they would look on me, but I think my bits might be visible, only slightly though. The fashion seems to range from 1930s up to the 1970s and beyond. They also had a good selection of flip flops and sandals.

White linens, slouchy pyjama-esque cotton clothes, white sheets, plush white slippers, white cushion covers, gorgeous white scented candles, subtle bath fragrances and soaps, white kitchen wares. It really is a heaven for people who like their clothes and home to feel fresh, light, and delicate. This lifestyle comes with a pricetag, of course, and given the quality of the fabrics and the design behind it all, it's definitely a shop for those with a bit of money to spend. It sits in a cluster of expensive shops in Cabot Circus and secures its custom from more affluent shoppers. I could quite happily furnish my entire home and fill my wardrobe with White Company things. It's all just absurdly gorgeous, classy and tempting.

Today at The Loft I had the good fortune to experience the highest ever level of retail therapy…read more The saleswomen who helped me couldn't have been more helpful. I described the cut I was looking for, and lucky for me they had lots of things cut that way. After trying on a lot of tops, dresses and coats, I ended up with the most amazing coat, made in Germany of all cotton. It is quite fashionable and also functional. It was expensive, but worth every penny. I also got wonderful feeling black leggings, a gorgeous dress from France, some very cool reading glasses and stylish and functional fingerless gloves with leather palms. They also have a home furnishing section, as well as a restaurant which I understand has delicious food. What a find !!!!!! This place is retail therapy at its best for someone who wants clothing with panache, somewhat avant grade, and somewhat bohemian. It might be my favorite all time clothing store!

Welcome to the Clifton fashion boutique Maze…read more I visited here during the January sales hoping to find a bargain, more specifically I had tried a dress on in the French Connection in town which I really liked but needed a size 8. My heart did a little jump when I found that they did indeed have a size 8! But it fell right down to my feet when I saw they had it priced more more than double the FC sale price! I asked the shop assistant if perhaps it hadn't been marked down again yet but she informed me in a kind of 'how-many-more-times-do-I-have-to-go-through-this' kind of way that although they stocked FC lines, they do not have to mirror their prices. I was quite disappointed! Generally speaking, the ladies things are very nice but very expensive. But then, that's Clifton; in the changing room I overheard someone trying a dress on for her upcoming trip down the red carpet at the BRITS or BAFTAS or something like that! I think the men's section might be a bit better though.

Jigsaw - another shop I can rarely afford to even step into. I just know the minute I go inside…read morethat I will find something I absolutely love and then all willpower goes out the window and I start irrationally talking to myself about how I don't really need lunch everyday anyway. Unless you have a spare £100 in your pocket I would suggest walking straight past as they have some really lovely dresses and cardi's in here. Obviously they have more than that, but those two items are my failing point. I also really like the lighting in there. It's dark, moody and kind of romantic. And most importantly they have well positioned lights so you can actually see what you are holding (those who have visited the new Hollister at Cabot will understand this point).

The store is usually quite quiet; you can step away from the bustle of the street into a calm environment. The clothes here are really well made and certainly pricey (a mere scarf costs between £30 and £40), but definitely worth the investment. I particularly favour the accessories range, I dream of being able to afford the shoes, but for now I'll just treat myself occaisionally to the odd pair of luxury tights.

More often…read morethat not they've got a sale on, so whatever time of year there's likely to be a bargain available. There's a large denim section on the ground floor, along with the ladieswear, whilst upstairs there's a large mens section, offering both a range of smart clothing and suits, as well as casual wear and accessories, with watches and belts at particularly reasonable prices. Denim is their main focus, and Dulay is one of the largest denim retailers in the south west. They stock all the main brands like Levi and Wrangler, but cheaper than you're likely to find elsewhere. A good team of staff (which is quite large - there's always someone available to assist) complete the package for a very good shop.

I'm not big on clothes shopping in general, not when I can save my money up for new gadgets and…read moresuch, but on occasion I find myself in desperate need of some new jeans/jumpers/socks and find myself with no option but to venture into the jungle that is high street fashion. Dulay isn't a place I'd even considered before, to be perfectly honest, but as I found myself walking past I decided to go in and check it out. They do a good range of jeans - although I couldn't find any baggy enough for my preference, there's plenty to choose from if you're into average leg widths. The staff are friendly, but not overbearing as they can be in other places and the prices aren't bad either. I didn't pick anything up this time, but I'm sure I'll head back at some point in the future.
