Grassmarket, Old Town

If you are looking for a piece of quirky or unique clothing, Lady JoJo's Boutique is the place to…read morego. Situated in the Grassmarket area of Edinburgh, Lady JoJo's Boutique is just around the corner from the Royal Mile and it is a short walk to the main shopping street in Edinburgh, Princes Street, and so it is a convenient place to reach. This store is relatively new on the Edinburgh clothing scene, and it is a definite welcome addition. I love to come here and browse the shop and admire their beautiful stock. The boutique is pretty small inside but it boasts a beautiful selection of dresses, tops, trousers and accessories. I bought an absolutely gorgeous dress here several months ago, and it cost around £50, but it is of excellent quality and I wear a lot when I go out so it is definitely good value for money. The stock changes over quite a bit, so I find that if there is something I like, its probably best to buy it there and then rather than waiting a week and finding out its not longer on sale - that has happened to me several times!! The staff are really friendly and warm too. Lady JoJo's is a great place to go to buck the trend and buy your clothes from a non-high street store.

I came across this little boutique whilst wandering down The Grassmarket. It's only been open for…read moreabout a week, and the shop is gorgeous and brand spanking new. I was drawn inside by the kitsch sign and the funky name. 'Lady JoJo's' sounded like my kind of shop. I wasn't disappointed when I stepped inside, and was greeted by the two lovely young shop assistants. The stock is sparse, which one of the said assistants explained was because they were simply testing the water to see what kind of stuff people liked best. Rails of gorgeous retro swing dresses and frilly knickers really caught my eye, as did the old fashioned dresser table adorned with gorgeous jewellery and seamed stockings. The boutique oozed with the retro glamour of Betty Paige and 1950's style, which is quite unique in Edinburgh and stocks ranges such as 'What Katie Did' and 'Love Kills'. A handmade necklace with two chunky red hearts emblazoned with 'Pin Up Girl' really caught my eye. I bought the necklace and was pleasantly surprised when it was only £8, with a 20% discount complimentary because the shop had just opened. Perfect! I will certainly be visiting in a couple of weeks when it is more established and full of gorgeous Pin Up clothes and jewellery.

Disgusting Shop. Clothes lying on floor, rude sales assistants and cheap, tasteless clothing…read more Avoid at all costs!

Well, having spent £50 today, I've managed to walk away from Primark with a new coat, two pairs of…read morejeans, two bags, a pair of PJs, some shoes, a pack of three pairs of tights and a pack of hairbands. Where else could you possibly get this much for your money? I wouldn't say I was a 'fashionista' necessarily (well, not totally), but my tastes do change very frequently. So I begrudge forking out a fortune on designer and brand name clothing for something that I'm probably not going to be interested in wearing the following season. Primark suits me perfectly for this reason. Whilst this may go against the 'eco-friendly' side of my personality [who wishes that my tastes weren't quite so changeable and disposable], but it's true. What makes me feel a bit better about this is the fact that Primark now has a new 'ethical' code of conduct in the supply of their clothing. Anyway, I digress. There is currently no Primark store in Edinburgh, so I'll regularly make the trip to Dunfermline specifically for this purpose. It's a decent sized store - the ground level floor is taken up, for the most part by women's clothing and homewares (yes, you can pick up a duvet set on the cheap here too), whilst the lower floor is stocked with men's and children's clothing. If you're of average shoe size (around size 5 for women, as I am), then expect to struggle to buy shoesI've frequently found shoes that I like in the shop, only to pull every single pair off the shelves and find them in just tiny sizes (3 and 4) or in gigantic sizes (for women anyway), in size 7 or 8. They don't seem to purchase enough stock in the more 'regular' sizes. You can also pick up some excellent accessories in the form of jewellery or handbags for very very cheap. And I've even been complimented whilst wearing them. Of course, I'm no good at keeping schtum, and instead find myself blurting out oh, I got that for just £2 in Primark. I should maybe have just kept quiet about that. If you're looking for top quality clothing, then Primark really wouldn't be your first port of call. But if you're looking for decent clothing at a price that's very affordable, then Primark's definitely worth a look. Of course, the range of goods varies from season to season, so it's very hit and missbut keep an eye out and you can pick up some great bargains!
