Don't know is it just me but I am struggle with clothes shopping these days. Going into my local shopping centre or indeed anywhere, there seems to be the same style of clothes there since two years ago. Clothes which look like curtains, floaty dresses etc mostly dull colours and all tired looking at this stage. It seems to have gone this way since the recession came in. Its like no one can be bothered putting thought into or designing clothes properly anymore. I tried internet shopping but could find nothing on there either. Its just not the way it used to be where you find something unique a lot more often, any other readers find this as well. Like im confused as to what exactly is supposed to be in fashion at the moment

Totally agree. Next used to have good clothes before and what is with all the grey school uniform type dresses in there? I too have had to delve into my wardrobe and bring out clothes 5 years old when there was actually a fashion there and start wearing them again
Something for all ages/styles as usual. Daisy accessories are also 'big' and very pretty (imo). Give it a Google OP. Hopefully you'll find some 'in' trends that you like.
Thank you
I have the opposite problem (not the age one unfortunately). I'm about 5'3" and maxi dresses make me look as if I'm dragging myself across the floor
Tesco is just as crap, Matalan ditto, Asda Can surprise.
Maybe the chubby youths do their clothes shopping at Jacamo.
What absolute bollocks!
I'm feeling the tribal prints and metallics.

Simply a sign of the times. Years ago a smart mens tailors used the slogan -
Let Burtons dress you
Replaced by todays slogan - Let Millets dress you
Another idea is to visit a seamstress/dressmaker. They often have interesting things in their shop windows taken from ideas from famous designers.
Marks And Spencers do sensible trousers.
In my youth I was often puzzled as to why my newly purchased raincoat or jacket
seldom looked so smart or fitted so well when at home compared to how smartly it fitted at the time of purchase. Until one day as the salesman steered me towards the full length mirror, extolling the smart fit and quality of my intended purchase, I discovered he was clutching about 6 yards of surplus raincoat at the rear !
If you just hit the quote button you don't need to faff about like that ^^^ and it'll be easier for others to read and understand there's a quote there as well.
