Even after an hour of browsing, I have come to the conclusion that this store has the quality of H&M or Forever 21 - just with higher prices and the occasional name brand.

The shop is quite cutting edge in what they offer, the emphasis on shape and cut and are amongst the freshest themes out there, there is always an interesting cut to look out for at Dahlia's. Attention to detail is essential, buttons, pockets, stitching and lining. For instance, I fell in love with one of their new season sailor coats, with red buttons and navy backdrop, the lining in silk and printed red stars. Unfortunately, the shape was a bit to frumpy for my height but I can see it being worn by a specific kind of woman amazingly! I encountered the same problem with other outfits, it was such a shame. Their clothes won't fit everyone, but you never know; one of their vintage type, fun cut dresses might fit you perfectly.

Supposedly the designer is British and began selling her pieces on Portobello Road ten years ago. The shop is brightly lit, small and very quaint. I found the Dahlia collection to be rather vintage-inspired, with precise tailoring feminine details. The quality of the pieces are very good and I feel like the price point is fair. There also is a section of vintage pieces in the shop, all in wonderful condition. I found the service to be great as well, my salesgirl was quite attentive and gave me her advice when I was conflicted between two vintage 1950s dresses I had selected. She asked for my contact information so she could ring me when they got in a trench I was eyeing earlier that had sold out straight away. Also, she said she would let me know when the shop got in their next vintage shipment. Overall, wonderful and very genuine customer service. I look forward to what the Dahlia shop has in store for F/W 2010 and I will be back in the shop very soon.

On day in november i was looking desperatly for a dress and i entered this shop. I felt in love. It is one of my favourite clothes shop. It is tidy and clean. Clothes are well exposed and you can easly see them all and find your size whatever it is. The staff is friendly and helpful. Fitting rooms are huge! I think they have more than 10, with a really good light and with many mirrors. The maximum of clothes you can try is 10 but if you go during the week time you can try a couple of more. They also have a big space all dedicated to shoes. It's a dream. Prices are super honest and you can choose between two brands. The one from new look -cheeper- and another one more "formal" and a little bit more expensive. I will repeat myself but i love this store

I think about food, ingredients and spices a lot and when I travel, I like to experience and take a little something home as a souvenir. So I came to John Lewis & Partners after a friend recommended the grocery portion as a good place to find spices. I've traveled to several countries and states where I pick up spices to use in my recipes, this means a lot more to me than some novelty t-shirt or magnet. I purchased a wide selection of spices, some which I have never tried using before. As you can see in my picture, I got quite the haul and paid around $30 euros for it all. Compared to the prices I would have paid back home, I feel that I got a great deal at John Lewis & Partners.

We were visiting London from Chicago in October when a cold snap hit. We didn't bring clothes for…read morecolder weather and I needed a coat. A few locals we met recommended Selfridges so we went. Comparing it to US stores, Selfridges is like a more upscale Macy's. They have a very wide selection of products from food to clothing, from furnishings to collectibles. They are also known for a huge shoe department. We made a beeline for men's clothing. Within the clothing areas, the divide by designer more than anything. At first, we were "sticker shocked" by the prices we saw. But we were looking at the big name brands and wanted to find something a little more reasonable. After looking around, we found a section with winter coats that, while still a little more than we wanted to spend, were more in our range. I found a very nice winter coat, bought it, and wore it out of the store. While I was on my way out, with my wife still looking around, I passed their cafe. They have a nice menu with a good variety of foods for meals or snacks. I simply had a cup of coffee and people watched until my wife caught up with me. Selfridges is a really nice store. I'm not a big shopper so I didn't want to just walk around the store. I will say that, if I did enjoy looking around in a big department store, Selfridges fits the bill.

It's not every department store that has a Masterpiece TV show made about it. That's just one of…read morethe things that makes Selfridges special. I visited Selfridges with my husband about two weeks ago, when we were visiting London for a few days. This store - their flagship - opened in 1909, and is the second-largest department store in the UK after Harrods. The store was founded by Harry Gordon Selfridge, who became the subject of an ITV/Masterpiece showed called "Mr Selfridge," in which Selfridge was played by Jeremy Piven. During the Second World War, Selfridges housed a huge SIGSALY scrambling machine in its basement, which allowed Winston Churchill to call President Roosevelt directly and securely about a mile away from the Cabinet War Rooms. You can see its history in the bones of the building. The store has definitely been updated (it's stunning), but you can see original touches from the 1909 building. But Selfridges is a modern luxury department store with the best brands. You can definitely spend some money at Selfridges. We were just exploring the store, since we were in the neighborhood, but it's an incredible store - for shopping, for having a glass of champagne at their bar, or for checking out their pretty wonderful art pieces around the store.

"Have you been to COS?" I questioned my BFF over lunch at nearby NOPI. After explaining that H&M's…read moresophisticated, higher end sister was my European go-to and still not available in the States, it became clear I had to take her there. Opened in March 2007, the Regent Street location is London's first Collection of Style (COS). Whilst I still haven't properly figured out their sizing (I consistently have to take two of every item into the fitting room to get it right), I continue to love COS - particularly for dresses and accessories. At the moment about half the store is on sale so it's a nice to time to get your Nordic fashion fix. Neon lovers: orange is figuring prominently in a lot of the current collection. I stuck to more muted tones with my purchases but I admire ladies who can rock super brights. My BFF picked up a terrific large checked scarf (as well as an oatmeal coloured rolled hem jumper for her boyfriend.) I spotted a blue/grey leather colour block clutch that I very nearly bought to avoid trying to DIY my own. Given I'm still thinking about it, I'll probably have to go back and fetch it at some point. There are plenty of basics here but if you desire to be more daring, they've got that too. Think coated linen sculptured dresses, glued seams, waxed linen shrunken shirts, bold statement necklaces. COS may well be the only store in London I can't manage to leave empty handed.

I feel like this store is a bit too 'grown up' at times and I plan to take advantage of my freedom to wear 'silly' clothes for as longs as I can.
