They regularly hold sales with day dresses from £15 and shoes from around £20 which is great.All their clothes wash very well so they are value for money and the fit is excellent too. The staff here are very friendly and will order in things for you like shoes if they are out of stock. I love shopping here as it is light and airy and the prices are good.

Monsoon is a high end high street clothing shop which on average is more expensive than the regular…read morehigh street clothing stores for women.

I don't really see the attraction with River Island. It's a bit like Next in my opinion - the stuff…read moreis just average High Street quality, nice enough but nothing special, but the company has decided they want to try and make it into a desireable designer-type brand, so they put the prices up and kids are daft enough to pay it becasuse they think it's cool. It is a nice enough shop, in the Frenchgate so handy if you're doing town shopping. They've got mens and womens clothes and some shoes etc too. Like I say, there's nothing particularly wrong with it, it's just not the designer label stuff they want you to believe it is - there's no kudos in buying something in River Island which is fine as I don't care about kudos, I just wish they'd lower the prices a bit to make it a bit more realistic.

Hasseen exclusive wear is just one of the many sari shops on and around Roundhay Road. It stands…read moreout for me because it has some exceptionally beautiful elaborately beaded garments which seem to be of a higher quality and level of detail than the pieces in many of the other sari shops. Some of them really are gorgeous, in vibrant gem colours with intricate patterns of gold and silver beads painstakingly sewn in. It would be worth a visit just to drool over them even if you don't intend to buy anything. The most elaborate garments are suitably more expensive than their less-detailed counterparts, with a very elaborate tunic top selling for £85.Though I'd be worried if it sold for any less considering the work that must have gone into it! If you want to experience the real beauty of traditional South Asian fashion then I would highly recommend Hasseen.
