London shopping

[fashion_boi_01]

Any neat stores for menswear that I should absolutely check out?
Looking for casual stuff: jeans, t-shirts, hoodies, sneakers.. sort of like Urban Outfitters.

For sure I'm planning on going to Selfridges, Harrods, Browns and Bond Street.

I want to know the BEST , (quality and pricing) vintage stores that you know of in the west regions, i am not up for traveling out to spitalfields camden etc...

For jeans you should check out Butcher of Distinction in the Old Truman Brewery, near Brick Lane - there are a number of small boutiques around there too, and there are always sample sales going on as well, which do usually have a small range of mens clothes.

Beyond the Valley & B Store are also good!

B Store!! I was trying to remember that to suggest along with Start.

FYI London Tfsers who don't receive Daily Candy, a very rare Hermes sample sale starts today (Friday) and Saturday, beginning 8.30 AM. Up to 70% off ready to wear and accessories. at The Music Room, 26 South Molton Lane (so just down from Browns I'm guessing).

guys, what would you say are some of the best independent boutiques in london? that sell famous designers etc?

 

[bafchloe]

^ if my idea of what an independent boutique is correct, i think The Shop at Bluebird is great, they have an amazing selection of clothes and other things such as books and music. when i go to london i stay at a flat that is just across the street and i used to go there almost every day, I just love that place! =)

 

[Katie123]

yess, that's exactly what i was thinking. the shop at bluebird, feathers, what else? cos sometimes they stock designers/certain items that shops like libertys don't

Best Place in London or Online for Vintage Boots?

Hey everyone,

Where would be the best place in London to find vintage boots? Or online, but I would prefer to try on in person so I get the sizing right.

I just want some black leather calf boots with a 2-3" heel.

Any ideas?
