Now, get up, make yourself a glass of Berocca and listen good - we've got some must-read fashion resolutions to ensure that 2011 is the year of some serious style.<br />
<br />
1) <b>Ditch the High Street</b> - You heard what I said girls (and guys). It's ok to love Topshop and River Island for picking up the occasional piece, but buy your clothes there all the time and people will start to wonder if they sponsor you. For quirkier, unusual pieces, head to markets such as Camden or Brick Lane - and don't forget that although it can be exhausting, trawling charity shops often pays off.<br />
<br />
2) <b>Experiment</b> - If we had a penny for every time we heard someone say 'I wish I could pull that off, but...' we'd be printing Roar on gold leaf. It's time to adopt a new frame of mind - just because you haven't worn something before or it departs from your usual style doesn't mean it can't be done. Accessorize with pieces that you are comfortable with and don't try loads of different elements at once - trust me, you <i>can</i> pull it off.<br />
<br />
3)<b> Don't Impulse Buy</b> - We're all guilty of this. You walk into a shop in the sales, see a top that you love but which is two sizes too big, and convince yourself that with a bit of styling it will all work out ok. Ditto the shoes that are size 3 when your feet are actually size 6. Kid yourself not - the top and shoes will still be in your wardrobe unworn by the time New Year 2012 rolls around. Avoid this situation by planning ahead, only shopping for things you need, and taking a friend along to tell you when you are being utterly ridiculous.<br />
<br />
4) <b>Make A Mood Board</b> - No, you don't have to be super artistic - if you don't like the idea of cutting and sticking, just have a computer folder where you save any images you come across that inspire you, whether it's a catwalk still, a hair or make-up idea or even a pic of one of your favourite celebs. This folder will inspire you througout the year, and you can keep adding to it as the seasons change.<br />
<br />
5) <b>Have Fun</b> - Never take fashion too seriously. It's important, yes, but most of all it's about being yourself. You aren't Kate Moss, you are you, and your clothes are the way that you express that. Don't be afraid, get out there and play with your style and make 2011 a year to remember.<br />

Although getting dressed is an integral part of the ‘going out’ process, it can often feel like a chore, especially on a student budget. Thankfully our high street is the best in the world, making it easy to achieve a high-end look at a fraction of the catwalk cost. To save you from any pre-party meltdowns, I have scoured it in search of the best festive outfit ideas that the shops have to offer. <br />
<br />
If your social calendar takes you somewhere presentable, dresses tend to be the failsafe option. Lace and baroque opulence are the biggest evening trends this season, seen on the catwalks at Giles, Balmain and Paul Costelloe to name a few. Think gold, silver, and shades of red in luxuriously textured fabrics. Go to Asos for lace shifts and River Island for scarlet cocktail dresses, but best for the student budget is H&M’s shimmering brocade strapless dress, which at £19.99 captures the decadence trend perfectly. If you’re bold enough, make a statement by going for H&M’s lace midi. Longer lengths are so on trend and give the wearer a mixture of sophistication and insouciance.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhN0_2DFz4lAghCyRgKVh4PTPU13ovcWk2IQYT7DBdqTxvbw974r_6EWy4CbZkNkfNxGr8EPjTxjf1UhsBcCmizGU_cO2vu0bQXzDvLW1x34qeCbXMT-DPa5DctBs7YkoVP7Qf4iNzbLkY/s1600/Brocade+dress.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhN0_2DFz4lAghCyRgKVh4PTPU13ovcWk2IQYT7DBdqTxvbw974r_6EWy4CbZkNkfNxGr8EPjTxjf1UhsBcCmizGU_cO2vu0bQXzDvLW1x34qeCbXMT-DPa5DctBs7YkoVP7Qf4iNzbLkY/s320/Brocade+dress.jpg" width="279" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"> <span style="font-size: x-small;">Strapless dress, £19.99, H&M</span></div><br />
They’ve been around for a while but statement tights are a simple way to create different looks with one dress. Patterned with polka dots, suspenders and even tattoos, for around £8 a pop they’re an easy outfit lifter. Sheer tights look particularly glamorous peaking out from under a faux fur coat, perfect for dashing out in the bitter frost between parties, but try to avoid the high street and go for something vintage - it's usually around the same price or cheaper and a lot more authentic.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjVZC0ySPeoVoa8DeSDiq6hbC8IR0m6qHpAc-PD_e3N1GPIzNQTjRsoKpTLFkNB2Jv1PPkhKfTkZKVF-srcmgOqAr7m5kXEesJeQaLWUF_yJZWlqqR6g_Nw0A2ZM8ElbG8WlFhLVw2GmS8/s1600/tights.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjVZC0ySPeoVoa8DeSDiq6hbC8IR0m6qHpAc-PD_e3N1GPIzNQTjRsoKpTLFkNB2Jv1PPkhKfTkZKVF-srcmgOqAr7m5kXEesJeQaLWUF_yJZWlqqR6g_Nw0A2ZM8ElbG8WlFhLVw2GmS8/s1600/tights.jpg" /></a></div><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">Sheer tights, £8</span>, <span style="font-size: x-small;">Topshop</span></div><br />
If you don’t want to buy a new dress it's easy to create the same textured look with accessories. Leopard print accessories are all over the high street; you can’t walk anywhere without seeing someone wearing a now ubiquitous scarf. Translate this into belts, clutch bags and shoes for evening to liven up any old LBD. Towering heels are always a must but towering leopard print heels can take an outfit to a whole new level of chic. Top of every fashion editor’s wish list are the amazing leopard print stilettos from Lanvin for H&M. At £79.99 they aren’t pocket money cheap but if you can afford it, I highly advise investing. In fact, the whole collection is a master class in colourful cocktail party dressing, and you’re not going to get Lanvin for the price of Topshop again anytime soon. If your budget can’t quite make the stretch however, New Look usually tend to have a good selection of party shoes at student friendly prices.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgwZ74_ZPuUYS2RPqLNXomcmbWEPc1la0uIQp5OhipKKIll-Q6BvbETASSHMHk2hkJnTvHuL1KtYrCm8zuTviHuq0uWrNodCZP59HhHsdPpqE_tD40TTPm3Qu2R-OcBV2lOs1tQ20niAQA/s1600/lanvin+hm+stilettos.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="260" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgwZ74_ZPuUYS2RPqLNXomcmbWEPc1la0uIQp5OhipKKIll-Q6BvbETASSHMHk2hkJnTvHuL1KtYrCm8zuTviHuq0uWrNodCZP59HhHsdPpqE_tD40TTPm3Qu2R-OcBV2lOs1tQ20niAQA/s320/lanvin+hm+stilettos.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><br />
<div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">Leopard stilettos, £79.99, Lanvin for H&M </span></div><br />
If dresses aren’t your thing definitely try shorts in an interesting fabric, leather or sequins for example. Wear with aforementioned statement tights for a variety of outfits from one pair. Confident party go-ers might consider sequin hotpants – so wrong, yet somehow so right. Paired with a sheer silk shirt and cropped tuxedo jacket they are less Truffle Shuffle and more Sienna Miller in her Factory Girl days, or Kate Moss out on the town in all her glory. Cheeky bowtie optional. You can usually pick up a pair for under £15 from Primark or H&M around Christmas, but I’m also loving this fantastic gold pair with pink chiffon overlay from Topshop, £55. For the jacket, Primark are doing a great version for £19.99, but you’ll have to be quick.<br />
<br />

As always the most important rule for stylish winter dressing is don’t take yourself too seriously and be comfortable in what you’re wearing, but particularly in a season of minimalistic daywear one must look to night time as a chance to escape from camel and chunky knits and throw on something with a bit of interest and sparkle.<br />

After all you never know when the next love of your life will run into you on Waterloo Bridge, so as the boy scouts say ‘always be prepared’ to ensure that you look fantastic for any eventualities.<br />
<br />
So let’s starts with the hair. On those windy days when it takes a shield to protect you from the ice cold winds, keeping your hair in place can seem like an impossible task but it is possible to do more than scrunch it uninspiringly back. One product that works really well is James Brown’s London Hairspray: not only does it smell incredible, but due to the ultrafine mist it keeps your hair in place and also allows movement. So whilst the wind is blowing your hair, not only will it retain hold but it will also create volume and movement unlike heavy duty hairsprays that keep your hair static. Also good news, James Brown products have been reintroduced into both Boots and Superdrug! And if you do meet that certain someone you can be assured that your hair will smell delicious.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhwQKHn5TU8fXtrfQq5oOuhhHF43mJxpGrLTpeFyVsteSmGQ4N-E960O8zORl8_CP4VB1jwcnsBMnCRgb_QCXTuLLdS8jo3KUhjPDrkfW0q8lt8x85POptTXnnGeme-F1QPExZ5QNlsNsQ/s1600/hairspray.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhwQKHn5TU8fXtrfQq5oOuhhHF43mJxpGrLTpeFyVsteSmGQ4N-E960O8zORl8_CP4VB1jwcnsBMnCRgb_QCXTuLLdS8jo3KUhjPDrkfW0q8lt8x85POptTXnnGeme-F1QPExZ5QNlsNsQ/s1600/hairspray.JPG" /> </a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">However if you have a long walk in and your hair doesn’t take well to the dampness that the winter weather air is prone to, and serums or hairspray aren’t great in your hair, then the high streets offerings of hats are brilliant this season. If you have a fringe or shorter hair then Topshop’s faux fur pompom beanies (£16) are perfect to keep you warm this winter, and available in four colours there is range enough for all hair colours.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhkxaBHc2oQu2i5QH4CbitREGxNQsOkVWMd39XnnI1KJMzoL510mWx1jBJTqiz0-s4F8IBQyjGEnFOIJyuSZs6-BZsonV8vfqOgF7dLGujUepdn3SUdslJpqiTLOCJz_nwcnBpA6_Fg84Y/s1600/hat.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhkxaBHc2oQu2i5QH4CbitREGxNQsOkVWMd39XnnI1KJMzoL510mWx1jBJTqiz0-s4F8IBQyjGEnFOIJyuSZs6-BZsonV8vfqOgF7dLGujUepdn3SUdslJpqiTLOCJz_nwcnBpA6_Fg84Y/s1600/hat.JPG" /></a></div><br />
<br />
However if your hair is a bit longer then a faux fur headband is great for keeping your ears warm whilst keeping up with this winter’s style! Try ASOS’s pieces headband for only £10.<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQVPj5ARbw7nmSh-GJmU1eDkxlwF_cRJeEJkxGJjAI628TyFlr-siH9A1HuSGffhHBh4LgPgKGze4G5RolsjwXBV03IY8v1l9HR2_-eAAi7UuVlKW0Istt7ksOTQHbz4tuCsucyzuRJAs/s1600/ASOS.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQVPj5ARbw7nmSh-GJmU1eDkxlwF_cRJeEJkxGJjAI628TyFlr-siH9A1HuSGffhHBh4LgPgKGze4G5RolsjwXBV03IY8v1l9HR2_-eAAi7UuVlKW0Istt7ksOTQHbz4tuCsucyzuRJAs/s1600/ASOS.JPG" /></a></div><br />
<br />
<br />
Right, now a good foundation is every girl’s lifesaver and in order for that extra coverage in the winter months it can be useful to go for a slightly heavier one. One that fits that all important student budget is Rimmel’s Lasting Finish 16h foundation which is a tad thicker than most which, alongside its lasting quality, assures you some peace of mind for enduring coverage if any last minute cocktail invitations turn up. In winter to balance out red complexion why not opt for a brown blush on the cheek with a bronzer on top to give a glow. Try Mac’s Bronzing powder in Bronze for a subtle finish...<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcFVYwijmTEdYNTwUP6Hdk596EMAuZOzWII6jnKdWNtV4rd2PTiwyYHGhR0l0ULogPVqSSvSTjU6OMvBILwggqi18X5fc5C2iQJ2WvOKk1swFnSVAXSpyoWohKUtnWcAc9zJZqP8rgtSE/s1600/Foundation.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcFVYwijmTEdYNTwUP6Hdk596EMAuZOzWII6jnKdWNtV4rd2PTiwyYHGhR0l0ULogPVqSSvSTjU6OMvBILwggqi18X5fc5C2iQJ2WvOKk1swFnSVAXSpyoWohKUtnWcAc9zJZqP8rgtSE/s1600/Foundation.JPG" /></a></div><br />
<br />
Now to keep those toes as toasty as a marshmallow the key is insulation; however, insulation does not mean granny style thermals. Oh no, style does not have to be sacrificed and with shearling key on trend, and cropping up in any high street shop on top of this season's style, it means that your feet can be as fashionable as possible without relinquishing toes to frostbite. The perfect boot out there at the moment is one that can be worn with casual jeans and a jumper and transformed into a perfect night-time shoe when paired with a leather jacket and a chiffon dress. One which is incredible value is River Island’s black leather multi strap buckle boots. Although £75 this price tag will repay itself with the endless styling opportunities that these boots present. And trust me they are incredibly comfortable.<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgu7rb8I5wn_1xb6_lJ14VtV-p3bzbLa2UWsj6Y9nXgeckTgZqSn1oISQQiYq-3A6AhdXUciiG3p0Vc4uFqtRkK8hRonuDGpt-Y7sRk7uz8JoMitY9a9Zo5dcYMBGAdW3wtdIU1GndlBwE/s1600/boot.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgu7rb8I5wn_1xb6_lJ14VtV-p3bzbLa2UWsj6Y9nXgeckTgZqSn1oISQQiYq-3A6AhdXUciiG3p0Vc4uFqtRkK8hRonuDGpt-Y7sRk7uz8JoMitY9a9Zo5dcYMBGAdW3wtdIU1GndlBwE/s1600/boot.JPG" /></a></div><br />
<br />
Finally a staple every winter is that all important coat. Whilst there is a seduction in buying a classic trench coat this season to keep you warm, something a bit more adventurous can make more a statement whilst being classic and keeping you toasty. One coat that is perfect for this is ASOS’s exaggerated ruffle coat in black and now with £30 off there’s no better time to get purchasing. This coat is perfect as it retains a classic silhouette but with its detailing around the collar it makes it more interesting and is perfect for any outfit. Pair it with some skinny jeans, a pair of heeled ankle boots and thick ribbed cream tights to keep you snug and looking great.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgGWOgXSL8JwkKnHNURI1YF9pEWHoiG9KxGMBjhflcnx8vS-g2qgzHX0nvEkDmNfAiN4pd0KnR6Wrl5Oe1Ke4blTSV2ifBBQ9mypxGxX9w7oD1Yyd3ThlWtLP1Y4dEgDMdA220d651TLX4/s1600/asos+coat.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgGWOgXSL8JwkKnHNURI1YF9pEWHoiG9KxGMBjhflcnx8vS-g2qgzHX0nvEkDmNfAiN4pd0KnR6Wrl5Oe1Ke4blTSV2ifBBQ9mypxGxX9w7oD1Yyd3ThlWtLP1Y4dEgDMdA220d651TLX4/s320/asos+coat.JPG" width="271" /></a></div><br />
<br />

At this time of the year the cosmetics counters are packed with tons of gorgeous glistening lip glosses, shimmery eye shadows, luscious liquid liners as well as an endless airy of glossy nail polishes. So let your face glow and glisten this party season with the return of party proof gorgeous make-up. Here are a few of our fav products to try out:<br />

Eyes were once described in the film ‘House Bunny’ as “the nipples of the face”. Now that may be a bit of an odd description but there’s no denying that it is all in the eyes.

You know - when the nights are getting even colder and even more Christmassy and you think how much fun ice-skating will be with all your mates. And you’re not wrong. It is great. But if you’re like us, you always regret trying to look too stylish and end up absolutely freezing or you try too hard to keep warm and end up looking like your Aunty Pat on the Christmas day walk! So what with most of London’s ice rinks opening up pretty soon (see list below) we thought we’d put together some ideal ice-skating outfits comprised of our pick of this season’s finest outer wear. Aren’t we nice? You’d better get your skates on (sorry we had pun overload and had to fit one in!) and head to the high street to snap up these bargains and ensure you look snuggly but sexy rather than cold or old this winter!<br />
<br />
First up is <a href="http://www.very.co.uk/clockhouse-heart-detail-duffle-coat/772756322.prd?browseToken=%2fb%2f1642%2c5%2fs%2fbestsellers%2c0%2fr%2f100&trail=1589-1642-5&prdToken=/p/prod4835493-sku7394352">this camel duffle</a> which is the perfect blend of cosy and stylish. The fluffy fleece-lined hood is bang on trend and will keep you warm and dry and the cute heart detail adds a little something extra. It’s on sale too so hurry hurry hurry! Team with H&M dusty pink snood; there’s nothing like a snood to keep you warm on a crisp winter’s evening. <br />

Judges, contestants and celebrity performers alike have been showcasing the newest styles, creating the latest crazes and wearing the most gorgeous couture evening wear - oh, and some of them have been sporting more unusual looks (ahem, Katie!). So it’s no surprise that the high-street hasn’t been far behind those Xfactor fashionistas and now we can get their looks for less! Here’s a few that caught our eye:<br />
<br />
Ms Cole’s simply stunning floor length pastel pink dress can be found <a href="http://www.goddiva.co.uk/Home/Cheryl-Cole/Cheryl-Cole-Closer-Maxi-Dress">here</a> on goddiva.co.uk for just £35.00. Ok it may not be the exact one she wore but we really can’t tell the difference. <br />

Danni’s shimmery one shoulder number has not only been modelled by the ProjectD designer on XFactor but has also been seen on a host of other celebs across the country.

The good news is it’s available in Topshop, the earth shatteringly bad news is that it costs a whopping £400! And there are only 50 available. Boo Hoo! <br />

But every cloud has a silver lining: this bitter weather is the perfect excuse to showcase a beautiful winter coat. <br />

festive themed jumpers appearing across our high street stores. It looks like finally<br />
the days where Christmas knitwear was considered completely lame (poor Bridget<br />
Jones!) are a thing of the past and here are the days when those woolly delights are<br />
not only cool but they have become the must have winter warmer! So it may be a bit<br />
early (although really it isn’t as we’ve been all Christmassy since September!) but<br />
here are our pick of the best fairisle knits. Team these jumpers and cardies with dark<br />
skinnies or really thick tights under dresses with chunky scarfs and fluffy Uggs for<br />
a fabulous festive look!<br />

However its amazingness can be rather daunting for even the most ruthless<br />
fashionistas. It can feel as though you are, to use the phrase, “spoilt for choice”<br />
especially when deciding where to start your Christmas shopping.<br />
<br />
Here to help you out is our list of the top 5 shopping destinations in our capital. So<br />
take a deep breath, don’t panic, you’ve still got bags of time, and make sure you<br />
head to one of these top shopping havens to buy all your pressies this Christmas!<br />
<br />
<strong>Fifth place goes to: <a href="http://www.brentcross.co.uk/">Brent Cross Shopping Centre</a>.</strong><br />
<br />
If you live anywhere north of Camden and cannot face heading into central then<br />
head a little bit further north for Brent Cross. This indoor shopping centre has all<br />
of the usual high street hits plus two massive department stores packed full of<br />
Christmas gift ideas; John Lewis and Fenwicks. This place is perfect for an all in one<br />
all day shop. You can buy all your family’s presents plus pick yourself up a gorgeous<br />
outfit for the party season too! A bonus is free parking too if you drive. Nearest<br />
Tube; Brent Cross. <br />
<br />
<strong>In at fourth place it's <a href="http://www.portobellomarket.org/">Portobello Market</a></strong>, a place for the cooler fashionistas out<br />
there! Not only will you most probably spot a few celebs drinking and dining in one<br />
of the bistros and bars but you can also pick up some amazing vintage, quirky and<br />
truly special gifts. Running on Saturdays and Sundays this market does get pretty<br />
packed but is worth it for unique gifts with a little something extra. Nearest Tube;<br />
Notting Hill Gate. <br />
<br />
<strong>Third place goes to <a href="http://www.coventgardenlife.com/">Covent Garden</a></strong>. This is probably the prettiest place to shop in<br />
London. With beautiful buildings and cutesy cobbled stone footpaths this is definitely<br />
the place to take out of towners on their Christmas shopping visits to London. It is<br />
ideal for gift shopping with little independent stores and stallls in the market centre.<br />
Also just a stone’s throw away is Neal Street with lots of make-up branches such as<br />
Benefit and Mac, another great gift destination for mums, sisters and your besties!<br />
Nearest Tube; Covent Garden, but this gets completely rammed on weekends so go<br />
for Leicester Square, it’s only a 3 minute walk away. <br />
<br />
<strong><a href="http://uk.westfield.com/London">Westfields Shopping Centre</a> comes in at second place</strong> and if you can’t handle<br />
the crowds this is the perfect place to do your Christmas shopping with relative<br />
peace and harmony in London during November and December. Always opt for an<br />
afternoon, say Tuesday, for the least amount of fuss. The centre also offers a range<br />
of designer boutiques if you want to splash the cash as well as great gadget stores<br />
and a surprisingly wide range of guy stores so if you’re stuck on what to get the men<br />
in your life this is where you need to go. Nearest tube, Shepherds Bush or Wood<br />
Lane. <br />
<br />
<strong>First place can go to <a href="http://www.oxfordstreet.co.uk/">Oxford Street</a></strong>. Ok so it may get completely rammed, and yes<br />
the tourists do like to stand right in front of you but apart from that it really is basically<br />
perfect. You’ve got Selfridges, great for gifts and everyone loves those little yellow<br />
bags! The food hall there too is perfect for the foody lovers in your family. Primark<br />
is a must for cheaper than chips party outfits and let’s not forgot the humongous<br />
Topshop! During December they always hold a weekend of car free shopping too so<br />
there might be a little more room to walk about. Be warned though, we did say a<br />
little! Nearest Tube; Oxford Circus but this tends to shut when overcrowded, Bond<br />
Street station is in the middle of Primark and Topshop, ideal!<br />
