First off, Harrods. I mean, duh. It’s Harrods. Proper boujee, innit? Free delivery over £100? Sounds good, but let’s be real, if you’re shopping designer at Harrods, you’re probably spending way more than that anyway. And free returns? Essential, ’cause let’s face it, that £500 dress might look amazing online but then make you look like a sack of potatoes in real life. Been there, done that, got the t-shirt (which I promptly returned, obvs).
Then you got these online boutiques, right? Sounds fancy. “International designer brands”…blah blah blah. They all say the same thing. It’s a gamble. Sometimes you find a hidden gem, sometimes you end up with something that looks like it was fished out of a clearance bin. Just sayin’.
The Pretty Dress Company… sounds a bit *specific*, doesn’t it? Like, if you’re not into dresses, hard luck, mate. But hey, next day delivery before midnight? That’s tempting. Especially if you’ve got a last-minute night out and you’re panicking. We’ve all been there.
And then there’s the resale thing. FARFETCH, Vinted…the whole second-hand designer market. Honestly? It’s great. You can snag some serious bargains, but you gotta be careful. Make sure it’s legit! I’ve heard horror stories of people getting ripped off with fake Guccis. Nobody wants that. Also, Vinted? Sometimes it’s a bit… overwhelming. Like wading through a sea of unwanted stuff. You gotta have patience. And a good eye.
Matches… now they say they have lesser-known brands, which I like the sound of. Tired of seeing the same old stuff everywhere, you know? “Cleverly Wrapped sources globally to curate an unusual and interesting…”. Okay, sounds promising. Maybe worth a look if you’re after something a bit different.
AASHNI + CO… I honestly don’t know anything about them. But hey, more options, right?
