Cotton On - just saying these words make me smile already. Cotton on is a great store to go into even if you are on a budget. If you ever find something you like, it does not feel so bad to buy it, the damage would not be that great compared to buying something in Top Shop or Dorothy Perkins. They have really nice basics - tops, skirts, shirts, etc. Their collection is also really nice, it has something for everyone, whether they are the girly, sporty or artsy type. Their clothes also fit very well, just be careful to follow the washing conditions because some of the items that I have bought fit nicely the first few times I wore them, but gradually, the sides started to droop and the cloth got a bit loose. Their 'ruby' shoes are also super cute! They have nice designs and are usually super comfortable! Overall, Cotton On is a good alternative to the likes of h&m and forever 21. read more
