    If you love fashion, and shoes in particular, then you need to make a pilgrimage to the Kurt Geiger…read morestore in the Princes Square shopping centre. Yes, there is a Kurt Geiger concession in Fraser's across the road - but it's not quite as good as having a dedicated shop, is it? And this isn't just any shop, either. It's gorgeous! The shoes obviously take centre stage (though it's better if you don't bother to look too closely at the prices...) It's great to have a taste of real high-fashion footwear on the high street. Plus, if, like me, you do have a bit of difficulty justifying their prices - make a trip here during sale periods when the prices are far more attractive on even their most expensive shoes.

    Hello my name is Lisa and I am a footwear snob. This is why I buy my shoes from Kurt Gieger. There…read moreis nothing I hate more than poor quality shoes and I think there is a fine line between quirkily fashionable and just plain tacky. For me Kurt Gieger comes under the quirkily fashionable bracket and the likes of Dune can sometimes be dangerously close to being tacky (yet still expensive!). In the line of work I'm in I know how to spot a good shoe and Kurt Gieger ticks all the boxes for me, especially with their own KG brand. The heels tend to be solid and are often wooden stacked, rather than plastic, making them much more durable. They also tend to be leather on the inside and out and leather is more comfortable and absorbs sweat (ewwwww) better than other materials meaning your shoes shouldn't end up smelly (double ewwwwww). However what I like best about KG shoes is that they normally have a padded insole which makes even the highest of high heels feel so much comfier and more wearable. The Princes Square Kurt Gieger store is usually quite quiet and this can make you feel a little bit under the spotlight as the staff ask you if you are ok at least 10 times. In saying that though, if you do need any help it means you get their undivided attention!

    The shoes here are absolutely gorgeous, the kind of shoes you see in fancy magazines and really…read morewish you had. Sadly, my feet are too small to fit any of the shoes here and no matter how many shoe inserts I buy they still don't fit. Most shoes are around £60+ and they also do bags and belts which are quite pricey too. I did manage to find a beautiful waist belt for only £12 once though. The shop is very small and can get very busy which then becomes quite chaotic as there are shoe sizes flying in every direction from eager shoe fanatics. There's also a 50-50 split between the male and female shoes which is nice. I always go in for a browse, especially when it comes to sale time in the hope that I can find something that fits. Please Dune, start making smaller sizes! Although, maybe it's a good thing for my purse that I can't fit anything here.

    Dune I have always imagined as a ladies shop, not for young people. So when I hit the age of around…read more20, I decided to go in. Big steps I know. Anyway, the staff were on me straight away, I seem to sense a hint of sales target. The poor souls, they were ever so helpful, and ran back and forth to get me sizes and colours. I felt so guilty, and definitely a little obliged to buy buy buy, which I didn't particularly want to do necessarily. Long story short, I left with a pair of boots that were on the sale for £70! Oh my god, I have to say these are probably some of my more recent and mose expensive purchases on footwear, excluding my ski boots. I am just glad they were boots, and not a strappy sandal, at least I feel as though I got more for my money.

    I must say their shoes shipped quick! I am a US buyer, being that fly london is not a US based shoe…read morestore and cost more in the US, I took a chance on buying from this business. What do you know, the shoes were a tad bit too big, so I needed to return. This is my personal opinion, I am not sure of what type of shoe business this is in the UK, but it is definitely not customer service friendly to US folks. no return policy as far as returns you on your own.  I paid for shipping and I know I also received a discount. The shoes in the US are a little pricey here, so I saved ordering from them, but boy when I went to UPS to ask about returning they wanted over $200 to ship back, USPS charged me about $49 to ship back and that was the cheapest and slowest route  I could get. The shoes arrived back to them  really quick as I got my refund of 106.00 back so i lost out, because i originally paid 131.78. Sad to say for the hassle i wish i would have just bought in the US and paid the extra because in the end I have NO shoes!!!! I am too scared now to order from them again. It's throwing away free money. It would have been nice if they had a return direct even if you were told up front that there was a flat fee return of lets say 25.00, but I think for the future unless I know for sure about the shoe, I am going to pass on doing business with Daniel footwear. I am not into tossing my hard earned money away!

    Daniel Footwear is an upmarket shoe shop in Hyndland. It's a great addition to the high-end clothes…read moreshops on Hyndland Road - and is great for a browse even if you don't have £100+ to spend on a pair of shoes. They stock mainly women's shoes, but you'll find a good selection of men's shoes in there too. As for brands - you'll find a large selection of Ugg boots (for women and children, if only the baby pink ones came in my size...) as well as Daniel Footwear's own brand you'll also find shoes from Prada, Lulu Guinness, Missoni, G-Star, Juicy Couture and countless others. To be honest, it's worth making a trip to Daniel Footwear JUST for their great selection of Lulu Guinness bags. Heavenly! They also have a sale on at the moment, and many of their shoes are slashed to half price. Definitely worth a bit of a gander.

    Formerly known as The Glory Hole this place's name always used to give myself & my friends a wee…read morechuckle...T-hehee! Childish I know...but back in the days of said GH I was often in here buying and selling clothes (this was the days before eBay kids) which was a brilliant idea. I'm not 100% sure they still do that now, but because of eBay (other auction sites are available) I very much doubt they still offer this service. Not a vintage shop as such, more a nearly new shop as I would guess 90% of their stock is (very) new/modern items & a lot appearing to be hardly worn. So I guess I would describe this as a sort of 'vintage' shop for folk that don't like retro styles. You'll find high street & fashion labels such as Top Shop, ASOS, River Island and others as well as the odd Karen Millen & more high end/designer items too. Everything is laid out very well & there's lots of space to wander & browse, it's also got great lighting too which is something some other vintage/2nd hand shops seem to lack. As well as clothes they sell shoes/boots, bags, belts & some jewellery too. Everything is a pretty reasonable price, especially considering the condition of the items. You can pick up some real bargains here if you can be bothered searching (Me = always!). Last time I was in I found 2 dresses I really liked but didn't have enough cash on me to pay for them (Note: they don't take cards here) so they nice lady serving said she would put them aside whilst I went in search of a cash machine (there's plenty on nearby Byres road) and when I returned she very kindly rounded down the price of the 2 dresses saving me a couple of quid! Such a lovely gesture. The staff here have always been super nice & friendly which is always a wee bonus. It's service like that that keeps folk coming back. For trying on clothes they have one small changing area which is better than nowt but can be a pain when the shop's busy, but good things come to those who wait...supposedly! It might be off the beaten (Ruthvern Lane) track but this wee hidden gem is well worth a swatch. Another example of a fantastic wee local Glasgow business.

    Glorious has always been one of my very first stops when shopping in the West End for as long as I…read morecan remember. In fact, from way back when it was known as The Glory Hole. (I actually prefer the risque name!) The problem with Glorious is that that I NEVER leave without purchasing anything, and that's no exaggeration. If I can limit myself to a fortnightly visit and a maximum of two items purchased I'm doing well. The stock is always carefully selected- lots of on trend pieces, lots of items you missed out on first time round from the High Street, and a nice little smattering of vintage. There's also always a great selection of handbags. I think the prices are extremely competitive too. Its always possible to get two of three items for under £20 but equally you might spot a really special designer piece and pay a bit more for it but still get a bargain. The owners and staff are lovely and always enthusiastic about offering an opinion if needed. They all seem to take great pride in Glorious and subsequently all items for sale are of the highest quality; washed, pressed and ready to be worn. Often this can be a rarity from a secondhand store. Cant recommend this place enough and looking forward to my next pay day!
