Alright everyone!

Me again! As I recently visited London, I thought I would blog about a particular shop which I happened to come across near Carnaby street ( A famous street just off Regent street). I had heard of this store from various Youtubers but didn't think it existed in the UK so as soon as I saw it and walked in, gasped and immediately fell in love.
If you have ever found that shop where your friends have had to hold you back and restrain you from doing, 'the happy dance' then you know exactly how I felt in that moment!
The shop in question was "Brandy Melville". If you are from the USA then you have probably heard of it but here in the UK its practically unknown and the only shop is in Carnaby Street. So you can imagine my surprise when I stumbled upon it in London.
For those of you who don't know Brandy, its clothing is very laid back, comfy, stylish and individual. The quality is amazing in the item which I bought from the London store (a jumper that I will show below), it is also super soft and has a gorgeous drape. I love this brand, it is great value for what you are buying and how flattering the cut of the garment is. For example the rings cost £4 each, are incredibly detailed and beautiful, the tops range from around £15 ($25) to £20 ($33) and the jumpers/sweaters are around the £20-25 mark.

Bridget knit top $25-It is incredibly soft
and cosy! |
If you hadn't already guessed this is my favorite shop at the moment, in fact I have planned another trip to London purely to go Brandy shopping and I live over 3 hours away! I would highly recommend checking this store out if you are in London, surfing the internet (as they ship overseas) or just looking for a new fashion which has a slight edge. They also have stores in Paris, Toronto, Barcelona and Berlin to name a few- I have linked the website so take a look if you haven't already and see if there is a store near you. But just something to bear in mind if you do visit Brandy, a lot of the clothing is "one size fits all"which can mean that the clothes are either too short or too long (being tall I had this problem with some of the garments)
As well as a beautiful cosy jumper, I also brought an Aztec print Jada dress in perfect colours for Autumn, a soft white floaty crop top and a gorgeous long black maxi dress- a summer staple!
I will leave you with some pictures of the store and the items I have purchased, These can also be found online and I have added a map showing its location in London!

I like your blog, I know you talked in previous post, you do not wear trousers, but I was wondering if you could do a post on what to wear with jeans since I wear them a lot, I would like yur advise (Sory if my English is not good it is second language to me) Cecile x
ReplyDeleteYou're in luck (don't worry your English is great!) I have recently started a post on what I wear with jeans in the colder months- it should be up by the end of the week!
DeleteYour gingham skirt is so cute! where did you get it?
ReplyDeleteThank you-its one of my favourites! Unfortunately I don't know where is it from as its a hand-me-down and does not have a label in it. However, you should be able to find similar ones, I would recommend Topshop, Jack Wills and JOY!
DeleteThank you, just looked on the JOY website for the first time and they have some great items! thank you for introducing me :) Looking forward to your next blog :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for introducing me to Brandy Melville, ill be up in london in a few weeks so im definetly stopping at the store, do you have any favourite pieces at the moment?
ReplyDeleteThat's okay! I do indeed, I am a big fan of their Jada dresses which come in all different colours and patterns, I also love their Veena knit, Shelby sweater and the Eve shorts!
