High fashion does not have to correlate to high prices. England’s high streets are lined with shops that offer affordable fashion ranging from up-to-the-minute trends to timeless classics that never go out of style.
Where should you shop to get the most style for your money?
1. Next seems to be in every shopping centre and on every high street- and for good reason. Next specialises in reasonably-priced fashion for women, men, kids, babies, and the home. They have great looks for everything from sleeping, to working, to lounging around on the weekend, to your beach holiday, to special occasions. You can find plenty of key pieces for under £20.
2. H&M is the place to go if you want to be trendy without busting the bank. Kids are rough on their clothes, and H&M has tons of options for under £10 and even under £5, so you can keep your kids’ clothes looking fresh without spending a fortune. Men and women have lots of inexpensive trendy and classic options as well, many for just around £10 or £15. H&M is a great place for inexpensive accessories, which makes it a good stop if you want to treat yourself to some jewellery or a bag.
3. Gap knows how to do classic. Find a great pair of jeans for around £30, a sophisticated dress for the office for £50, or a versatile top that you can dress up or down for just £15. Gap has cute and comfortable knitwear, loungewear, and undergarments. Men always look put together in a pair of Gap chinos and a button-down shirt. Gap’s adorable line of clothing for kids has stylish cuts and soft fabrics. Gap has frequent sales as well, so if you wait a bit you can usually grab a great bargain.
4. Primark is probably the first store that pops into mind when looking for affordable clothing. You can easily spend £20 and walk out of the store with a stuffed shopping bag. Primark keeps current so even when fashion trends change over night, you can head to Primark to update your wardrobe without breaking a sweat over the cost.
