I absolutely love this shop. Seriously, it is one of the best shops around for diva-licious fashion…read morethat is sophisticatedly outlandish and not slutty. My favourite lower end designer is TFNC and they sell loads of it here a long with gaudy jewellry and playboy undies and stockings. A dress here can be had for less than 20 pounds and look VERY hip. This is a great shop. If you like Lipsy or TFNC come here!

A lovely clothing shop in the North Chingford shopping area, near to Somerfield supermarket…read more This shop always has on-trend products in the window and once you're inside it doesn't disappoint. The clothes are fashionable and of a high quality. They are also very well priced. This shop often has sales and caters for all sizes as it is split in two with half the shop dedicated to larger ladies. They also offer a great range of handbags and other accessories. The staff are always friendly and the only downside is the shop is sometimes too small for all it's fans!

Central Park sells mid range and some inexpensive clothing and shoes. The sister store next door…read morereplicates the style of Central Park but makes it more casual. The second shop is the Factory Outlet. I like Central Park but I think Factory Outlet sucks. A 7 pound tracksuit is just too chavtastic for me in purple and pink terry cloth. There was a 2 pound jewellery table too ( Central Park had a closer to 10 pound table). Verdict: This shop is okay to have a look around. Central Park can still be a bit expensive and Factory Outlet is total Norf London neighbourhood girls wear for people that listen to Fergie or Mutya.

I haven't had one for a while and when I ended up in Trimbles today, I was on a hunt. A hunt for glamour. A hunt for a holder. Trimbles sold 4 different holders, different lengths and at different price ranges. There was a short black one, a long black one, a black and white one and an extending gold one. The woman took the gold one out of the package to show me and it was love at first psuedo-puff. Trimbles' 1920's holders range from 99p to 2.75. You can also get fake cigarettes to go with it. I do not want to encourage smoking, strangely enough so I passed. The staff was so helpful and the woman went to the back room to find me more holders. I had a demonstration of each one and she broke the packaging as I mentioned before, to show me. You can also rent costumes from this shop including a Marilyn train peekaboo panties one. Y'know what I mean..white. There are also tap shoes to buy and wigs. I love this shop. Come here and buy a holder..we'll start a fashion trend. Get Sienna on board and we are set!

I had to buy a reasonably priced suit and thought to try something new. So I tried Nejo in wood…read moregreen. They had a wide range of suits for all occasions. What I loved was the customer service, which is something that you do not tend to find in the larger chains. The suit cost me £150 and I think it was well worth it. I could have bought a similar suit in M&S, for around the same price, but the service would not have been anywhere near as good, It would have been just me and the changing room. Nejo design their own suits and is growing in reputation. If you find yourself in wood green and looking for a suit (Men only), pop into Nejo and ask for a chap named Mo (Mohammed).

Edmonton Green shopping centre, a hideous concrete beast built in the 60's to replace an original…read morestreet market dating back to 19th century the Green with a pond was the centre of village life. The main benefit are the stalls, where cheap fruit and veg can be bought although the new owners St Modwen, developers have built a new entrance area and new Asda they still have some way to go to remove the bleak brutalism of the place. What you see is what you get. In the local area are many fine Turkish grocers and cafes bargain meals for a £5 note Stew with rice, salad and bread.
