Fifi Wilson is the kind of deliciously fabulous boutique store that I've always wanted to shop in…read morebut could never afford. Everything is delicately feminine, unique and desirable. They stock clothes, accessories and interiors - the kind of stuff that London should be famous for and not bloody Topshop. I could have walked out with ten pairs of earrings, shoes, pretty little tops, but my bank manager would be none too pleased. Best of all, at the front door they had a sleeping bulldog in a basket! How much is that doggy in the window... (This was actually the Covent Garden branch I visited, you can't expect to get cute puppies at all of them)

I found this gorgeous boutique on a visit to London last weekend…read more It has some fabulous brands including APC Madras, By Marlene, Goat, Manoush but my favourite had to be the Elizabeth Lau black velvet dress with cream satin hearts that just had to come back to Scotland with me! This shop really is a treasure trove of tempting treats - with children's sparkly slippers, fabulous toiletries and the watch of the moment, Toywatch, which adorns the wrist of Madonna and Robbie Williams. Fifi Wilson is a must stop destination.

Her success has been based on her hard work, and the time she has taken to develop a style that is very unique, very Jenny Packham. The pieces in the store are beautiful, the quality of the fabrics and detail in each garment superb.

I stumbled upon Monsoon while wandering around Victoria Station. Looks like it's another women's…read moreclothing store. It kind of reminds me of Mango and other fast fashion stores. They were having a sale so a lot of items were around 20 pounds. That seems reasonable to me, and won't break the bank. There were a lot of dresses, and may of them had floral or pastel tones. I didn't buy anything but I would surely pop into another Monsoon store sometime soon.

Appalling customer and returns service. Don't take the risk online, go to the shop!…read more Good products but APALLING customer service and returns management. Was sent a faulty item which I returned, and they received back within 2 days.

You can also check the T&C's on the website as reference. Thank you" From a customer experience prospective I've been mis sold and been further impacted by being left £140 out of pocket. Don't take the risk, if you like something get yourself to the shop rather than order online.

The King's Road shop is just the right size with beautiful fashion, colourful crockery and unusual smellies spread out over one large floor. They had a lovely exhibition of dog paintings in a small side room, supporting an animal charity. I almost always walk out empty handed as the shop invites to browse more than to actually buy. Having said that, I have bought quite a few gifts before, and the fashion becomes more affordable during the sales. But this is one of the few shops where you feel happy just browsing without the urge to spend money. A bit like a trip to Liberty, a place just oozing good taste.

I am still kicking myself for not buying one when I had the chance several years ago. Now they are far, far beyond my price range -- actually, they always were but I didn't always live within my means -- and I am nowhere near this amazing shop. I'm afraid this is going to be another one of those much regretted, lost opportunities. I'd put this one up there with missing out on seeing Led Zeppelin perform at the LA Forum in 1976 (okay, maybe not that bad)... some things you just never get over.
