    I can only think of the usual shops.
    TopShop, River Island, Miss Selfridge, New Look, Bay Trading.

    I got a really nice short, worn/faded denim skirt from River Island - they have a lot of nice stuff in at the moment.

    As a Zara employee....I can assure you that the new season has some gorge non-jumper-y items. Lots of gorgeous tops, some sheer, with plenty of embroidery/crochet/sequins/beading. Metallic shoes. Good for skirts (some on the v. short side of short!) but the trousers are so so so long!

    The problem with the gypsy/Sienna Miller rip-off look is that it doesn't look so good when you're out at night.... :yuck:

    The Huge Pilot shop in MK has shut down too.... Not that I'm not pleased, Pilot was the most dreadful shop in the world, the clothes were so cheaply made.

    There's still one over at the Lowry retail park, or at least there was last time I went.

    But west One have some nice going out stuff in.

    I've been to the Trafford Centre tonight and I got some brown fluffy boots from Oasis (nice ones, mind) and they were £70 - reduced to £35 (actually, £31.50 with my mates NUS :p) and a brown sleeveless v.v.v.low cut top from Republic for £19.99 and a plain white v-neck from Topshop (£9 with aforementioned NUS :p to give myself some dignity underneath the brown top...) Now I'm all ready for a night on the town. Just some funky jewellery, I should look OK. I hate going out looking OTT.... know what I mean?

    yep pilot's def. gone bust by the sounds of it as the one in nottingham has gone now as well.

    I wandered into debenhams over new year and they had a half price sale on and i managed to get some really nice going out clothes. To be honest i hardly ever go into town shopping anymore. I do mine either over the net or by catalogue.
