I had to buy a reasonably priced suit and thought to try something new. So I tried Nejo in wood…read moregreen. They had a wide range of suits for all occasions. What I loved was the customer service, which is something that you do not tend to find in the larger chains. The suit cost me £150 and I think it was well worth it. I could have bought a similar suit in M&S, for around the same price, but the service would not have been anywhere near as good, It would have been just me and the changing room. Nejo design their own suits and is growing in reputation. If you find yourself in wood green and looking for a suit (Men only), pop into Nejo and ask for a chap named Mo (Mohammed).

Next is a part of the local retail area consisting of around ten stores, opened couple of years…read moreago. It is a convenient place to shop if you don't feel like making your way downtown. The Next store is surprisingly well stocked, even if it does make the store feel rather cramped. The ground floor has womenswear, childrens clothes and household items on offer. The upstairs is the men's clothing section. Next is one of those brands that have reached almost an iconic status in UK retail sector. Almost everyone has got at least one item from Next in their wardrobe. The quality is decent and the prices OK, even though the design is lacking in style and flair. Most clothes and shoes look very bland. The home items can be very tacky at times. They seem to favour the brown colour. You'll find every shade of brown conceivable in this store. One thing worth coming in for are the kids clothes. If you have children, you'll find clothes that tick all the right boxes in the design, quality and price department.

I received an invitation for a black-tie event, but I didn't have a black-tie nor a black suit! (Oh…read moreGraus!!!) A quick search on the Internet proved to be helpful in that it pointed me to Moss Bros, a store that I had already frequently walked by - always wondering what "use" this store was: well...here's where you can hire or rent a suit!!! I walked in to the Muswell Hill store shortly after and told them about my needs. I was quickly ushered upstairs and the nice gentleman took my measurements to fit me out with the right suit. About 20 minutes later I was out on the street again and I would now have to wait a couple of days until I would be able to pick up my suit. (The way it works is that you have to order the suit probably 2-3 days prior to picking it up, as they only get a delivery on certain dates.) I had ordered the whole shebang: trousers, jacket, shirt, bow-tie, cummerbund and shoes. The total came up to £78 pounds, which is quite a lot, but much less expensive than having to buy my own suit (which would probably rot a away in my closet anyway...). So far, the whole suit-hiring experience was very pleasant... I picked up the suit on the morning of the eventful day and I hung it aside until the evening. That, in retrospective, I shouldn't have done: I should've tried it on!!! Because, as it turns out, the trousers were way too small. Of course, the store was closed by the timed I realised this and there was no time to go back anyway. Luckily, I had a black trousers in my closet somewhere and so the evening wasn't a whole sartorial disaster after all! The next day I returned the suit and it turns out, that while they had given me the right sized-pants, the pants itself had been altered at some point, so that the waist had shrunk to a 31. The clerk in the store was apologetic and refunded me the cost of the pants (£20) right away. Overall, I think this was an ok suit-hiring experience. I don't blame the folks at the store for my incorrect order, as this must've been messed-up by the central depot. However, I just hope that I won't get invited to a black-tie event any time soon...

Easily the worst shopping experience I've ever had. The saleswoman wouldn't stop following me…read moreDespite me requesting her to do so. Intended to purchase a number of suits and shirts but her incessant surveillance removed any desire I had to spend money in that store. I'm not sure if she thinks all black people are thieves or wether my demeanour somehow suggested I might be prone to some light thievery, in either case it resulted in the same outcome - a stupid, witless shop attendant acting as my shadow. The fact she was Asian doesn't assuage my suspicions, I noticed her utter lack of interest concerning another (whiter) gentleman who was in there. Ill just stick to Selfridges moving forward, Might be a bit longer to get into central London, but it beats shopping in the 1950s.
