Hi. I'm from Denmark. Visited Bonmarché in Southampton this summer. As I am a size 22, I sometimes…read morefind it hard to find nice clothes over here in Denmark - but my visit to Bonmarché cost me GBP 103 - but for that amount I got 17 different items really great. In Denmark, the stores for large women like me tend to think that we want to wear frills and large flowers which I definitely DON'T, so I love my stuff from Bonmarché. Will actually be going to Reading in a few days, and can't wait to visit Bonmarché there! I agree with other reviews here on QYPE - the clothes are generally for the more mature woman (I'm 51) - and a lot of it I didn't like. But that's the kind of shop I like - something for everyone! Brilliant! Can't wait :-)

Got to say am extremely happy with the service from this store, all the ladies there are so…read morehelpful, when I went in with my friend just to try on dresses as just got engaged. I found a dress I loved and said we would be back, as my other bridesmaid wasn't with me. We went back several weeks later, date of wedding was then set, they remembered me and the dress I liked. My bridesmaids pick out the dresses they like and they found sizes fir them to try, although not the colour, just to get the feel for fit. Helped me into my dress again, for the second bridesmaid to give her verdict. Was a goer, tried on some shoes to get the height right and ordered in a shorter length for me.we made a purchase that day, deposit was paid, am going back soon to pick these up and can thank them enough for their help.

All the dresses are laid out by colour, so if you know what colour you want this is ideal. Most of the girls in Southampton attending a ball or event will get dresses from here. The excellent thing about this shop though is that they will keep a list of all the girls buying dresses and the event they are attending so no two people at one event will have the same dress! Genius! Would also be good for bridesmaid dresses and it looks like they are opening a bridal shop next door!.

I have very fond memories of this mall because when I used to work on ships, this was where I would…read morecome to hang out when docked in Southampton. There was reasonably priced food, wifi, and I could get a little shopping in. This was 15 years ago. Glad to see 15 years later, this mall is still kicking, and they have really built up this area a lot more. They still have a nice mix of stores, although some of their kiosks are gone, like their Whittard's kiosk. The food court wasn't bad, although I did notice a couple places were empty. There is still wifi, although that's less of an issue now. And they still have the M&S, thankfully. If you're going on a cruise, and have some time to kill, I think this mall is a great stop, especially considering there are other things in the area too if you get bored with the mall. There is another mall in the area, but that one is a little more empty, whereas West Quay still seems to have a crowd.

The Westquay Shopping Centre is very big. We came here once during our stay in Southampton. We…read moredid a bit of shopping, but for the most part we just walked around, window shopped, and people watched. The place was packed with people. Maybe we were all just escaping the rain that day. Westquay was very clean and they had a nice assortment of stores. My wife's favorite store was Marks & Spencer. This large department store had some good deals. My favorite shop was located on the second floor (I believe). Actually, it was more like a large kiosk. One girl was manning the place. It was called Continental Bakery, and the selection of baked goods was fantastic. I ordered a couple of Pastel De Nata which tasted excellent!! Very good price points also! Wish I had bought some other stuff while we were there. Anyways, visiting the Westquay Shopping Centre is a "Must do" when in Southampton. I noticed that there is also a Nando's Restaurant upstairs in the food area which I'll have to go to next time also.

This is a shop of shops!…read more I love their stuff, but only have one item from there - a very very dark blue velvet overshirt. Their clothes are beautiful but not every ones taste, and certainly expensive. Some are ethnic and some are luxurious, but all are very good quality.

A large selection of clearance itemThe UK version of Marshalls/TJ Maxx brand owned by TJK…read moreCompanies, this instance of TK Maxx had a large selection of clothes and accessories for men, women, and children. The location consists of multiple stories, with each section having a dedicated clearance section. All prices are clearly marked, and include taxes (which somewhat compensated for the prices being in pounds). My wife got a good deal for a blouse (5 quid), that she wore multiple times on our cruise. Going on a multi-day cruise with just carry-on luggage (allowing us to be nimble as we explore), means only light weight clothing that is easy to handwash/air dry. TK Maxx (just like its sibling Marshalls/TJMaxx in the States) is great place to pick up heavily discounted clothes that fit that bill. It's also fun to see what fashion and brands a foreign country is selling...in this case, it was similar to what we are able to find in the States (along with similar prices). It was a self checkout and we had no issues using our US bank issued card. Learning: TJK changed the name to TK Maxx to avoid confusion with a British retailed called T.J. Hughes.
