While it's debatable whether children who are only two or younger know what looks good or not, if…read moreyou are a new Mum or know one this is definitely the place to go to buy some baby clothes that are both cute, trendy and a wee bit out of the ordinary. The clothes range also covers expectant mums, glad no doubt, to be able to choose something other than the usual dungarees and huge t-shirts. Recent additions to the shop include very pretty Mother and child accessories and crockery, including a Beatrix Potter range. While not cheap (some of the clothes are crazy dear, craaazy dear) you can rely on being the best dressed Mum or child around, if that is your priority. Otherwise, it's hard to beat Asda's George these days.

If you've read any of my previous reviews on little boutiques like this then you may well be a tad…read moresupriesd to learn that i.. really do like this place. Tucked away down on the quite splendidly west endy Skirving Street on the South Side, this place is a quite funky wee shop with cutsey clothing, accessories and other bits and bobs for gals and babies.....there is a gentle nod to some guys stuff but really, with a name like Butterfly Kisses they aint exactly lookng to corner the man market. Anyway, this is a cute wee place with some really funky gear. Ok its a tad pricey but to be honest the gear looks to be of a high quality and its in nowhere near the same ridiculous price bracket as the west end. With a freindly and helpful owener i do hope this place is around to celebrate its second birthday come next year.....me likes.

My perpetual tour of 'girly shops' continues…read more Initially the emphasis was on fun and funky accessories in this shop but now, as well as the handbags and jewellery they have a selection of glamorous and glitzy clothes too. Basically it does what it says on the tin! The goods are laid in out by colour, which I like, the emphasis being on colourful tops studded with the ubiquitous sequin and sexy dresses. You know what I'm trying to say. Hopefully. For such unusual clothes, prices are very reasonable starting at around £20 with regular sales.

I have shopped in-store here and it was good each time. However I purchased a ticket for the online…read moresale and every item I received either had string hanging off of it or had holes in it. I know these items are in the sale but due to the fact that you have to pay to get a ticket, wait for the sale to begin and then pay for the clothes really annoyed me. Shouldn't the clothes still be in good condition regardless of the fact it was a sale anyway? Will not be shopping here again, really disappointing.

One star, by default. By default, I hear you ask? When I visited yesterday (for the first time) I…read morediscovered there's actually barely any shops in Shawlands Arcade so I couldn't award it more stars even if I wanted to. It's like those urban adventuring photos you see online of abandoned shopping centres, overgrown with plants - although I'll concede this isn't actually overgrown with plants. I'd actually been quite intrigued by Shawlands Arcade and had even researched it online to see what shops were here. The info on their website is well out of date as I discovered that most shops are empty inside the arcade. So what is there? As at December 2014 there's Farmfoods, a picture framing store with an incredibly creepy moving mannequin out the front (not sure if he's meant to be santa or a wizard), a bargain store (notably called "The Bargain Store"), a Debra charity shop and the Kiosk. The rest of the shops lay empty and give the whole arcade an incredibly dismal, depressing vibe. Would I return here? No, honestly not. Perhaps one day someone with a bit of a vision will take over the arcade and turn it into a delightful shopping centre with lovely local shops, with tasty treats and an interesting bookshop. For now, it's really not worth visiting. In happier news, I believe the car park is quite cheap, especially now parking prices on Kilmarnock Road have gone up. Update: someone tweeted me to mention there is an Art Village in one of the shops, but it's closed on a Monday so look like I'll have to go back to check that out.

The Arcade has been a controversial presence in Shawlands for a few years: it has had a high…read moreturnover of shops and the lacklustre building makes it something of an eyesore. Yet it seems to be perking up: The bookstore reopened, the supermarket is still busy and the cafe is one of the few places where an outside meal doesn't mean wet food and cold fingers. It is starting to become a little bit of a centre for Shawlands: a local church uses it for "healing prayer" on Saturday mornings, and the Christmas market is increasingly popular. It is heavy on the charity shops, and has one odd addition: the carpets and calendar store. The overall feel is slightly rundown and tired, and the combination of pound stores and local businesses is unique: it has never really become the super-mall of its ambitions. Moves are constantly afoot to regenerate the arcade: it has the advantage of being covered which, during the Glasgow winter, makes it the place to escape the bitter cold.

Oh, this is such a lovely, pretty shop with masses amounts of eye candy. Clam down dear, I'm not…read moretalking about men. No, I'm talking about an array of accessories. These are all pretty much focused on, or closely related to, weddings. So you can expect to find hats, scarfs, bags and belts. All of these are in pretty colours and are delicately made with lovely touches of beading, embroidery and lace. Thus, the prices are slightly higher than their M & S counterpart accessories and the like but you get what you pay for. Part of this being, the extremely welcoming and extremely friendly, knowledgeable staff that have a great eye for all things aesthetic. A lovely, sweet little wedding shop that has real personality.
