It looses a star as the shop is pretty teeny, so can't fit enough of my future shoes-to-be BUT it is sooo mush more relaxing than fighting your way through the crowds in the flag-ship-shoeland on Carnaby Street. I will be happy to suggest meeting my boyfriend in Shoreditch after work if this means I can window shop here on the way!!

Still, the Topshop here stocks a big enough range of women's clothing, denim lingerie, accessories and the petite and tall ranges too. You won't find any concessions here. For that, you'll have to go to the Oxford Circus store, although you can find some vintage at the High Street Kensington branch as well. Anyway, despite its small size, this place still looks bright and spacious and not at all untidy. The changing rooms were impressively big. There're even couches outside for people to wait. I find Topshop staff are generally nice and friendly. I tend to joke with cashiers about my purchases. This time, it was about how I'd probably regret buying an Americana crop top. The cashier started off by telling me I could return it, and then confessed she loved that print as well and how the flagship store had loads of these if I wanted more. Always nice to find a kindred soul!

All you have to do is find the elevator and go to the highest level, and since the elevator is mostly glass, you can get amazing views of St. Paul's Cathedral just on the way up. When we went around 10am on a Saturday in late August, there was barely anyone there. Maybe it was a combination of it still being early and not that many people knowing about it. It's also only about a 3 minute walk from St. Paul's Cathedral which you can get amazing views of from the rooftop as well as other notable sites like The Shard and The London Eye. And since it's outside with low panes of glass, you can take unobstructed photos. You can even get amazing shots on the ground floor because of the contrast between old vs. modern architecture.

Seeing a shop with shoes in I was automatically pulled in by unseen wires. There is a wide range of shoes. Initially I thought these were full of flat sensible shoes but as I turned around low and behold there were higher trendy shoes, bags and also mens shoes. Having had a little wander round I was able to select a lovely pair of shoes (many complements when I wear them) for a bargain price (leather shoes in the sale at a good price). Not necessarily a shop I would go out of my way for however worth a wander in if you happen to be in the area.

He was so friendly and helped us from the very beginning. The store had basically any size you needed, but only sold a couple of styles. Even though there weren't many styles to choose from, they had the most popular ones. I bought the Black Fine Haircell Boot from Dr. Martens here for 89 Euros and the 8 Eye Derby Boot from Solivar for also 89 Euros. Everything you buy here is affordable and at a reasonable price for these brands. Definitely advise you coming here if you are looking for cheap and popular brand name shoes!

The store has an amazing selection of Solovair and DMs. Worth a visit! Two notes: 1. It's cash only, no card or Apple Pay 2. The hours online don't match the actual store hours ( see notes below) --------------------------- On Yelp, Blackman's listing shows them as open on Tuesday and Thursday through Sunday. I made a trip all the way across London on Tuesday morning only to find that they are not open Tuesday at all. Their hours are Thursday through Saturday 12-5, according to the sign on their shuttered storefront. Honestly, how difficult is it to keep your hours on Yelp up to date? That trip across London wasted 90 minutes.

When I tried to return it next day, the store rejected to issue a refund and offered a credit note, then the person behind the counter alleged that I raised my voice at her (I didn't), and finally the store manager lied that she was not authorised to issue a refund because of the company policy (she blushed at least :-) ). The point being - it's a tourist trap, most of the products are of junk quality, i.e. doesn't matter how cheap they seem, they don't worth it, and it looks like the staff is terrorised by the management into treating customers like dirt. Avoid at any cost.
