Advantages: cheap

Disadvantages: bad fits

I used to be a regular visitor to this store and I decided to outline some good and bad points:

Good points:

* Shops are usually spacious and there is plenty of room to move around

* The clothes are usually fairly cheap, not dirt cheap but affordable

* There appears to be quite a regular turnover of new stock so each trip in, you should always see something new

* The window displays are often great, using some clever ideas about mixing and matching

* Staff on the whole are younger and approachable and know enough about the stock to advise and help

Bad points:

* Often things are hard to find and clothes tend to be randomly strewen out over stores, making it hard to pinpoint what you want

* Some items I have bought seem to tear or lose shape after a few washes

* Some of the colour choices are questionable. The last season favoured a lot of green which is a hard colour to pull off. There also seemed to be a lot of it dotted about all over the floor

* Some garments are not always a shapely fit. I have bought t-shirts and found they are more a square cut shape rather than tailored to suit the body's natural curves

Overall: Not bad for a budget shop, but I would not use it if I wanted long lasting clothes

Summary: not bad
