I'd like to think of myself as quite a friendly, personable kind of girl. But when it comes to shopping, I turn into a stroppy, moody teenager who just wants to be left alone! Which is why it's a love/hate feeling for me shopping in Oasis. I love their fashions but hate the overly friendly staff. Don't get my wrong - I'm all for good customer service, but it feels incredibly forced.
When you walk in you're inevitably greeted by a 'hello, can I help?', then when you walk further into the shop you get another, 'is there anything you're looking for?' before you get one final 'can you find your size ok?' while mindlessly flicking through a rack of clothes. Argh!? So frustrating!
But if you can stomach all these pleasantries, then you're bound to love their sales which they seem to have all year round. It's quite a small shop, but it's well stocked with a range of styles and sizes to suit most young women. I particularly like their range of jewellery here, which you'll find at the back of the shop. read more
