Oh my love for Europe! Can't get over it. I just spent 2 weeks in Europe end of Aug and beginning of Sept and as previous times, was too sad to be back. Shopping of course is a big part of it. Although I could name so many good places to shop from in a number of Western European countries, I'll keep it to UK (London expecially, oxford street, westfield mall ftw) and they are not in any order of my liking.
Asos for sure, Top Shop-at times. I can't say I have always liked it and we have a number of the franchise in Toronto so I guess, it wasn't somewhere I was inclined to go in my last visit. Have you tried All Saints (the store with sewing machine on the walls around the store? They have some amazing stuff. Their jackets and dresses are really out-of-box kind of style. I also like Miss Selfridge. They have nice dresses. I like Mango as well but they have the pretty much the same thing in Toronto locations. Have you been to Lipsy? It's quite nice. You'll definitely come out with a few things from there. Zara is amazing! But once again, it's not strictly from the UK/in UK so I'd say, buy it at your hometown. I walked into Zara once when I was London last month and saw they had the exact same things so decided to spend my money on other stores.

on his blog that while the reception had been eaiaxordtnrry everywhere if he could select only one show it would be SF. The show now moves to Houston and NJ and NY. All these places are sold out more or less (I know about the latter two myself). So it is simply impossible that with that kind of Indian population in Vancouver the show wouldn't have had the same reception.

my fav is:
1.Zara

3.Cubus
4.H&M
5.VeroModa
6.Only
7.Vila
I don't like H&M because you can hardly walk down the street without seeing somebody dressed just like you. It's even worse in the US, that's why I stopped shopping there entirely. I recently discovered TK Maxx (TJ Maxx in the US), which is a fantastic place to shop.
Yes online too. I have never shopped at Zara but now that you've recommended it, I will. I also like net-a-porter.

Isn't asos an online website? Are you including online shopping as well? Having said that,how can you miss Zara? Especially after all the publicity the Duchess of Cambridge has given it.
