Lily Allen and her sister's vintage shop Lucy in Disguise will be selling online soon http://lucyindisguiselondon.com/ - can't wait!!!

Best of luck to Lily Allen & her sister but despite their best efforts this shop is still very over priced for regular gals.

But a lot of their stuff is very high-end designer pieces - you're never going to get them cheap. Look them up on Facebook, they have some affordable stuff as well.

Does anyone know where to buy O'Neill's tracksuit bottoms online please? Somewhere reasonably priced that delivers to Ireland and doesn't charge a fortune for delivery.

I'm looking for the plain navy pair that have one zip pocket zip on the bottom insides of the legs.

Back couple years ago i searched high and low for what you are looking for, but a lot were the zipped from behind o neills. I even visited the o'neills shop up north to no avail.

Elverys often have them, i never bother looking anymore cause just wear gym pant tracksuits instead but might be worth a look

Thanks a million for your help.

I have been looking for a pair for the past year and cannot find them anywhere. There's an Elvery's near me so I'll pop in and see.

I LOVE boohoo.com, I've bought tons online from them and never had any problems with anything, quality's always been great and the stuff usually arrives within a week. If you're wondering about their sizing, I find it roughly the same as Penneys sizing.

I used to buy from them the odd time and they used to be very good to deal with but never again, they must have without a doubt the worst customer service in the entire world, they used to be fine but then they suddenly started to ignore customers for weeks on end and never answer their phones, a few weeks ago there facebook page was filled with complaint after complaint after complaint with people (myself included) waiting weeks to even be acknowledged after trying to email their customer service and phone them up, basically with no way of getting in touch with them everyone had to resort to using their facebook page to try to get answers, they've since started doing competitions where people enter on their FB page which I presume is to cover up the amount of angry customers.

They were supposed to have improved their customer service from last week but I have yet to see an improvement.

That's very strange. I've never had any reason to contact their customer service so I haven't dealt with them that way. Have to say I'm quite surprised by that, I would have thought their customer service would be good - I guess you never know.

They were always quite good I think but around the time I needed to contact them the amount of complaints on their facebook page from people saying that noone would respond to their emails etc was unreal, close to 100 complaints each day I reckon, it looked like they were in trouble to be honest but then they said they were improving their customer service from the 28th of March but I finally only got my refund processed today (so we'll see when I actually get it)

The quality of the stuff is quite poor I generally find. I've ordered a few times from there but have said never again!

CornBlitz · 21-04-2011 5:12pm

To add to this..

www.tillys.com (surf wear, skate wear. Similar to pacsun and they ship to ireland)

www.stand-out.net (Very good collection of european brands)

www.javari.co.uk (bought a lot of from them. free shipping)

www.branch309.co.uk (for shoes. super fast shipping and very good bargains)

Boredom seems to be getting the better of me.....MandMDirect may be putting a bit of a dent on my credit card this evening....

lily marlene · 27-04-2011 3:33pm

Here is a new website for you all www.lcclothing.com . They also have a range of plus-size clothing.

zooeylullabye · 13-05-2011 2:43pm

Hey this is a great forum. Will definelty be revisiting for tips and to share findings!! If you're into 50s rockabilly style or corsets sohos.co.uk do amazing dress.

careca11 · 13-05-2011 3:02pm

I love using the abercrombie.com website ,
also www.ae.com ( Amercian Eagle)

www.dress-for-less.ie is very good ,

but I'm looking for a cheape enough onlinestore for trainers, adidas , nike , puma etc
all way to expensive in the shops in this country

omb0wyn5ehpij9 · 15-05-2011 9:47pm

Does anybody know any good websites for buying razors and razor blades?

http://www.shophoppingmap.com/ is a useful portal to lots of quality online retailers.

jos28 · 22-05-2011 4:32pm

This site was recommended to me by a friend
http://www.eyeslipsface.co.uk/
Brilliant for cosmetics and brushes. I particularly like their tinted moisturiser. It's only 3.50 sterling and one of the best ones I have used. My friend ordered some of their brushes and was very impressed. 3.95 postage regardless of the value of your order.

skyscraperblue · 25-05-2011 5:05pm

I don't know how many of you know about http://www.shopusa.com but it's very useful - it basically gives you an address in the US to send your online shopping to and they then post it on. Their shipping, although it's not super super cheap, is cheaper than FEDEX, USPS etc, and it's handy if you want to shop from somewhere (Target, Wetseal, etc etc) that only ships within the US.

dafunk · 28-06-2011 6:21pm

I never clothes shop online but thought I'd start. Can people please recommend good online clothes shops that ship to Ireland for female in thirties. Stuff that's good value ideally!

corryworry · 28-06-2011 9:31pm

My old haunt is http://www.newlook.com/
You pay the sterling price which works out cheaper than paying the euro prices in the ROI new look stores and shipping costs are usually very reasonable.
Easy site to navigate through, plenty of zoom and filter options. Once you start you'll be hooked

Happy Shopping:D

zzxx · 28-06-2011 9:34pm

I was going to post a similar thread myself. I've been looking at these but either a bit too pricey or nothing catching my eye!

http://bananarepublic.gap.eu/?
http://www.anthropologie.eu/

Would love a site that has decent day dresses that don't cost the earth and are good for our age group but I have yet to find one!

Some regulars are

www.nextdirect.com
www.oasis-stores.com

Hi, just wondering has anyone bought from this site before ?http://www.dresses-herveleger.com/

daenerysstormborn3 · 21-08-2011 3:32pm

I'm sure they have been recommended before but just wanted to recommend asos.com.

I haven't used them since they made a huge mess of a delivery to me a couple of months ago because it was a huge inconvenience but their clothes are really good quality, fairly priced and delivery is usually quick enough.

Lemag · 16-03-2012 1:00pm

Any recommendations for casual inexpensive mens wear? Tshirts, tank tops, boxers, etc.

Thanks.

Macca07 · 16-03-2012 1:04pm

I use sendit.com for a lot of clothes, can do good daily deals.

Thanks. Just bought a few items. 20% off at the moment with 'MENS20' and some cashback with fatcheese. Sweet!!

Zerg · 01-05-2012 9:05am

How about drjays they are in states so in top of that is stamp duty and taxes, but they have really good deals.

lea1 · 28-06-2012 10:11pm

Hi, has anyone bought anything from karenzmillen.com. Is this a reputable site?

I would assume that the items on that site are fake.

The contact email is silviasevice@gamil.com - I assume that should be gmail and not gamil.

Personally, I wouldn't buy from it, no matter how cheap it is.

Hi! I am writing a dissertation about luxury brands and e-shopping. If you buy any luxury brands online, please, give me links for these websites. Thank you very much!!!
