**June 2022: Late Afternoon Friday Visit**…read more My friend and I were walking down Monmouth St. and I was enamored by the beautiful window display. The jewelry were bright and bold and evoke such Betsey Johnson vibes except with an emphasis on acrylic as their creative medium. We entered the store and oh my goodness everything was so eye catching - both in terms of designs as well as color palette. If you're a gal (or guy) who loves subdue understated jewelry this isn't the shop for you, as everything is extremely playful and witty. There were multiple items I wanted to purchase; however, the pricepoint is much higher than what I am use to; yet, you can think of it as paying for the design, and the fact that it's handmade by UK individuals. The smaller designs range in the £50 - £150 whereas the really stunning statement pieces around £200-£400. The extremely orange pieces can go up to £500+ I ended up getting a really beautiful blue parrot statement necklace that I'm sure would be a head turner. Can't wait to see more of their beautiful collection!

I've found some really lovely items from this store and I'd definitely come back for more.read more

I've bought a flatcap that was over £130. Within one year the colours faded in a very disgusting…read moreway for absolutely no reason! It's unwearable and when I sent it back to the company they gave me a ludicrous response that bleach as been spilled on the cap. I have more than 20 hats that I take extremely good care of and nothing like this ever happens to my caps. This is an overpriced company that treats their products and specially their costumers very poorly. Don't buy from them, you've been warned! Buy from Hannah hats instead, I have 15 caps from them and for over 10 years their caps stayed exactly the same as when I've purchased them!!

If you wear something from desigual prepare to get used to people stopping you in the street saying "oh my gosh I love your outfit, where did you get it?" Be sure to get a pair of their pants. Would look great with a pair of wellies in the festival season!

Not much has been done to a great standard in the shop itself. Having said that, the wallpaper and…read morethe mirror in the dressing room feels quite homely. 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.

I was strolling through Carnaby Street before catching the bus when I stumbled across this lovely…read morelittle shop down an alley. 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.

I called into Accessorize to buy some sunglasses for my holiday. Whilst the selection of sunglasses…read morewas not great, I did manage to find a nice pair and was impressed by the store's other ranges - the jewellery in particular is really pretty, with some lovely necklaces at fairly reasonable prices. There were also some really cute purses and hair clips, and the shop also sells flip flops, hats, underwear and scarves amongst other things. I ended up spending a surprisingly long time browsing for a fairly small shop, and would recommend it, particularly if you're looking for an interesting piece of jewellery,

So exploring west London in preparation for Yelp's WestFest I stumbled upon this fabulous shop…read more Ignore the name, antiques enthusiasts look away now, the jewels here are for fashionistas! Art deco designs, 1950s plastic pineapples, Lady Di diamante replica drops, you name it and this shop has it! All with a price tag mind you but if you are looking for a special gift or item that will wow and impress all your friends look no further. You really can spend hours in here, or at least that's what I did. Everything is in a glass case as most of it is delicate and it must be hard stopping people with a five finger discount from snapping up these beauties otherwise. The items are all laid out thematically, so you'll find your scotty dog choker with the houndstooth broaches off course. Head on down if you have some time during the week, that way the whole place isn't over run by tourists and you can look in peace, even better than that, go on a rainy day... Notting Hill becomes a ghost town.

OMG soooooo many different pieces of costume jewellery. All displayed in colour coordination. It's…read morebreathtaking that you can have as many pieces of perfection in such a small area. There are labels to let you know what styles/eras you are looking at and everything has a price tag on them. I'm sure you'll be able to find anything specific you are looking for and the staff will be able to point you in the right direction if you are overwhelmed with choice. Please please go and see it for yourself. There are no words to describe the overwhelming beauty of the jewellery.

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. Items on sale were very odd looking and disorganized. Not exactly the place I'd like to buy anything, I tried.

USA DO NOT PURCHASE ON-LINE GIFT CARDS from TopShop!…read more On the US TopShop website, the gift cards are electronically generated in EUROS and TopShop stores (in this case, The Grove TopShop in LA) DOES NOT HONOR THEM because "they are not in US dollars". After receiving a $200 gift card that they would not honor, I called their US Customer service number. The US customer service telephone lines ring and then disconnect - continuously. I called their UK customer service number that had an automated "your call is important to us" that kept me on hold for over 40 minutes before connecting to a person (the international phone call alone cost $210). The UK customer service guy checked it all out, confirmed the card, acknowledged the issue, and said they would reissue it in US dollars and email it within the week. No gift card was received. Instead, an email asking for CONFIRMATION of full name, address and zip code. (Image attached) Responded to them - no response. Emailed them again (after the first $200 phone charge I wasn't going to call again) - put in a "que" per automated response saying they were very busy and warning that it I sent another email it would put me on the end of the line and start the process all over again.(see attached) Endless loop - with no results whatsoever.
