Jeans tend to dominate the front entrance of the store, with there multitude of designs, colours and prices. The majority of the clothes are off reasonable quality, although I wouldn't buy anything in black (fades too quickly!) and are low to mid range prices. The shoe range (despite always being very messy and untidy) is quite well stocked, and shows a good balance between work shoes, casual shoes and glamour shoes. Also available within the store are the Inspire range and the young teen ranges.

The store can be quite chaotic at times and I find that whatever the spray their clothes with brings me out in a rash (sensitive skin!) so I tried not to spend a long time browsing the clothes sections. I have found some great bargains within the homeware range though, ranging from last years expensive kitchen designer set (RRP £100) bought for £25to ornate mirrors reduced to less than £5. Other accessories available include smellies, bags, shoes and suitcases.

If by some strange chance you see something that you remotely like (because lime green or orange is really the colour for you) how do you know you're getting a bargain? Just because the label says it was going for £120 and now it's £35, when was that, for 5 mins in their Outer Hebrides outlet? Having said all that you can get some reasonable stuff in their homeware section which is, by comparison to the clothing, reasonably laid out.

The store is sandwiched between Outfit and Boots and stands proudly out as an independant retailer of woman's clothing.

The clothing ranges are growing ever year and Evans is making a real effort to keep the market fashionable in this sector and succeeding nicely.

This compact shopping centre contains quite an eclectic mixture of shops, both chains and independent retailers. They proved about an hour of browsing but to be honest, I'm unlikely to return to many of them anytime soon. There's a Vue cinema, which is apparently quite new in town. I look forward to some trips there in the future. The centre was clean and there was public seating available for me to settle into for my wait.
