Topshop Personal Shopping Experience

Samantha — Wed, 08 May 2013 17:56:53 +0000

A month or so ago we got a email from Topshop asking if we would like to experience the personal shopping. As we are both massive Topshop fans we couldn’t wait to try it out!
We booked a appointment for 11am at Liverpool One’s Topshop and where met with personal shoppers Ursula and Charlotte who showed us around the very swish personal shopping quarters, a large sitting room, complete with cupcakes, bottled water and a bottle of Procesco (as it was 11am we didn’t manage a glass which is unfortunate!)
Personal Shoppers, Ursula Carey & Charlotte Harper;

We had our own very roomy fitting room with a rail of clothes, jewellery, shoes and accessories which had all been chosen for us try on. We had previously given a quick summery of our style, sizes and what kind of wardrobe we where looking for, mine a honeymoon wardrobe, Sophie a spring/summer wardrobe.

Then the trying on began!

Gorgeous grey tie dye playsuit with neon and jewelled edging which came in a shorts version too.

White cut out playsuit which was perfect holiday wear (comes in peach too!)
Red and Turquoise Kimono style jacket, which is great little cover up, looks great with simple top and jeans or over a casual day dress (kicking myself that i didn’t end up buying it!)
Classic with a twist black sundress with crochet sides (which also come in cream)
Grey lace boyfriend coat:
Some lovely chunky necklaces to accessorise with our outfits:

During us both trying on the clothes both Ursula and Charlotte where great, coming to check on us both to see if we needed anything, offer their opinion, get you different sizes, accessories etc.. It was great to get an outsiders opinion on what suits you and try on a few things that you might not necessarily have picked up but are pleasantly surprised!
All in all it was great, fun experience for us both. We both ended up with a few new pieces (and went back for more a few days later!) and came away with a clearer understanding of what suits our shape and to sometimes try things that are out of your comfort zone as you may just be surprised on the outcome.
Topshops personal shopping is a complimentary service which can be booked through the website they offer all types of fun and completely free packages which include, “The spoil me birthday booking” which is a perfect gift to give someone special or treat yourself! “The mother and daughter” the perfect way to spend some quality mother, daughter time, “The Stylist” Personal shoppers will show exactly how to wear this seasons key pieces! plus many more including a bespoke appointment just for you!
Thankyou to Liverpool One Topshop, and special thanks to Ursula and Charlotte for making out first personal shopping experience so enjoyable, we’ll definitely be back!

WHOOGA - Review

admin — Fri, 09 Sep 2011 10:01:47 +0000

A month or two ago we received an email from the guys over at Whooga asking if us Hoy Fashion girls would like to try some of their Sheepskin boots. Neither of us have ever been great fans of this style of boot but we thought because they looked so cosy we’d give them a try. The delivery time was incredibly speedy and the packaging was very pretty. Now we understand the hype, we’re addicted. Its very difficult not to want to wear them all the time!

Iggy wanted a pair for herself!

A few Whooga facts:

Whoogas are meant to be worn barefoot. This can be possible without a major odor problem because the thicker fleece actually allows more air to circulate and prevent moisture build-up.

Natural sheepskin is the most thermostatic material in the world, capable of warming your feet in temperatures well below freezing. Thanks to the ThermoFleece sheepskin we utilize Whooga ugg boots are the most thermostatic boots in the world.

They can also be worn in hot weather! Rigorously tested in extremes from -5° Celsius (23° Fahrenheit) through to 35° Celsius (95° Fahrenheit) ThermoFleece sheepskin was capable of maintaining an internal average temperature of a comfortable 22° Celsius (72° Fahrenheit) at all times.

The boots pictured are Classic tall in Chestnut and now have 40% off so they are now only £79! get them at www.whooga-boots.co.uk
