Shops I like and why

Wednesday, April 22nd, 2009

Scarlet/ Red on Stoke Newington Church street.
Good turnover of Vintage shoes and reasonably priced. Also good for Gents t-shirts. Scarlet has a good collective of different designers and not all subscribing to the “Shoreditch” uniform. A good place to look if you need something different at a standard price.

The Factory Outlet shop on Kingsland High street

Update – this shop is being refurbished…. i will report back when it’s done and i get a mo to have a look…

Thank fully this shop has escaped the East London line extension clear out of Buildings.
Worth checking on a regular basis (every one or two weeks) as the they do get some end of line stuff from expensive shops and sell it off cheap (like a Whistles last season dress for £15).

Peacocks
The kids trousers fit me – I am little and have no shame about it, but do avoid any girls trousers with sequins on the back.

Tk-maxx
Full retail is for chumps and a bargain rummaged for is a bargain earned.

The Cookery on Stoke Newington High street
Has anyone gone into this Butchers and asked for a Cut of meat they can’t do? – I doubt it. If visiting on Saturday afternoon be prepared to Queue but it’s worth it.
