Nice little shop where you can pick up unusual, 'ethnic' little nic nacs as well as fair trade goods difficult to pick up elsewhere. Staff lovely. You've got to admire the ethos. read more

No matter how hard I try, I can't stay away from charity shops…read more Shelter shops are always well maintained, something I've noticed from trailing charity shops this past month. This one adheres to that generalisation, with clothes clearly marked and some high quality high street tops and trousers to be found in here. They seem to have a range of work trousers which always comes in handy. There was a man hard at work arranging books when me and my boyfriend visited, and it seemed they had a generous selection of fiction on offer, including some nearly new releases. So this place would be good to kit yourself out for work, but also great if you're looking for some reading material to get you through your tea break!

Most recently, I was amused by hearing the No Mercy classic, "Where Do You Go? (my lovely)", whilst the hoodie wearing teen behind the counter sang along quite cheerfully. Hilarious soundtrack aside, this is a great big charity shop filled with loads of bags, books, shoes and scarves, as well as many many rails of clothing ordered by style and size, which is a nice little time saver. I find this to be the best shop of its kind in the area if you're looking for some books, as they have a great selection at very low prices, which is always a bonus. There are shelves filled with trinkets and pointless decorations that you would expect to find on your granny's fireplace, however there is the occasional little gem like pretty wine glasses. Definitely worth a visit for the impressive selection of nineties classics alone.

It's places like this shop that lend weight to the claim that 'Hyndland Street is the new Byres…read moreRoad'. Fifteen years ago Byres Road was full of individual wee shops like this; today it's all coffee emporiums and charity outlets. I discovered Owen Bissett when doing my Christmas shopping in December. It's not the sort of place that would normally attract me, but I was looking for a nice present for my sister, and their window display looked inviting, so I decided to give it a try. I'm so glad I made that decision. The place is a veritable Aladdin's Cave of jewellery, bijoux, craft wares, designer knick-knacks and generally precious things (preeeeccccciouuusssss!). I soon found a lovely bracelet and necklace combo that my sister was delighted with, and would probably have ended up spending a lot more than I wanted to had not common sense kicked in. There's such a wide range of really unusual things in here, it is ideal if you're looking for that 'special gift' or just want a thing of beauty for yourself. I think my favourite items were the glass bowl sculptures with the natural wood stands - these large thick glass works appear to have been melted and poured onto driftwood or tree-branch tripods, so that they have flowed into the perfect shape for the support. I have no idea what I would use one for (and I couldn't afford one anyway), they were just lovely pieces of craftsmanship. A definite thumbs-up for the most original and unusual shop in Hyndland Street, if not the entire West End. Check it out - you're sure to find something you like.
I love, love, love this shop!…read more There are far too many beautiful things in stock, be it little trinkets, unique and interesting jewellery or gorgeous ornaments (and everything else in between), meaning that you'll be tempted to clear your bank account buying everything in sight! There's something here for all budgets, which is a bonus. I bought a gorgeous necklace for myself a while back that people always comment on, and it only cost £10. Regardless of price, you can be assured that whatever you buy will always be top quality. Owen's window displays are always eye-catching and well thought out; I defy you to walk past and not at least stop for a good look! Displays are changed regularly, which is a great way to showcase the wide range of what's on offer. I highly recommend liking the shop on Facebook too, as it's an extension of the window displays. The service is always fantastic, and everyone there is so knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. They'll point out things you might like or will leave you to browse the stock without being over-bearing. It's customer service done correctly, and it's refreshing to behold. It's a great place to go and treat yourself or a loved one, be it Christmas, birthdays or just for the sake of it. It's a truly unique store, and it's wonderful to see such a vibrant independent business thrive. I really can't sing the praises of this shop enough!

This shop seems to be pretty new (I'd never noticed it before!) and it sells a big range of second-hand kids stuff. On the basis that I thought the clothes etc were new when I visited, it goes to show the stuff looks really nice and is well presented. There's also toys, and an area selling super cheap new basics as well. I wasn't in to buy anything myself (wait til I get a dog and then I'll be back to buy baby rompers for it) but prices were super cheap and the staff were nice, so 4 stars is it.

I was also very pleased to see that it's a very good place to buy wools and yarn of different colours, and a full range of sewing threads and accessories very useful indeed (I hadn't realised that there was anywhere in Largs where I could buy these things). There are also secondhand clothes, books and DVDs. The lady who was working in there was very friendly. I shall visit again soon!

It's a homewares/hosey kind of shop which is very Scottish in all it's tartan glory but in a classy, chic way. I popped in and the two lovely shop assistants were super helpful. I was hoping they had picture frames but sadly they didn't, so I just had a browse instead. This is the kind of shop I'd happily curl up in under a blanket and have a nap in - it feels super homely and cosy. As I said, there's lots of tartan but it's very stylish and good quality stuff. From lovely mugs and plates to cushions, rugs, tables and lamps, you could pretty much deck out your whole home here. Want to go that bit further? Step through to the back room where there's clothes, accessories, scarves and bags. Prices aren't cheap - a large overnight bag is over £300 and cushions are over £50. Sure, you might be able to find stuff cheaper elsewhere but they are passionately Scottish and everything is made here in the Western Isles, Borders and Highlands. So you're getting proper quality stuff which is locally made, which is surely worth those extra pennies when you're furnishing your place. The staff are super helpful and offered alternative housewarming gift suggestions, like their current deal of oven mitts and a cookbook for £28. Not quite what I wanted so I didn't buy anything at this visit, but I'll definitely be back for another wee nosey soon.
Attended my first Yelp event here. The shop itself is beautiful! The interior of the building is…read moregorgeous with many original features like the beams. The products are absolutely stunning and i'll definitely be coming back to buy some of the very cute tartan cups and plates to send as gifts to America. I dont wear wool so sadly cant buy any of the shawls but if you do wear wool definitely check into them. Modern but keeping a classical Scottish touch. They looked gorgeous! The staff were very knowledgeable and very friendly without being at all pushy. I've parked outside the store so many times without venturing inside but so glad that changed! Going to look into visiting the manufacturing part as I spend a lot of time in the borders and have a very artsy mother. The Yelp event was wonderful! I'm so glad I finally got enough confidence and managed to make an event. If you've never been to an event you're going to meet so many lovely and generous people with an amazing community manager. I'm already looking forward to my next event and getting to know people I met tonight!

Also some staff are not too friendly and try to push you to get their store card.
