Clothes!

Flisters who live in the UK (or anywhere, really), what are your favorite online sites for clothes?

The shops in my town are rubbish and shopping makes me ill.

I've tried amazon, but nothing really catches my eye. Ebay? I'm really looking for standard stuff, nice (ish) trousers, tops, cardigans, etc.

Help?

In the meantime, I'm really, really cold and I think I've actually got chills. I'd really prefer NOT to be sick.

It depends on your size, really - as I am both ridiculously tall and, erm, well, let's say curvy, I find that Long Tall Sally and SimplyBe are my go-to sites. But as I seem to remember you being normal-sized, have you tried Next, Top Shop, Dorothy Perkins, H&M, Marks and Spencers or The Gap? (Funny story, I went into a branch in Cardiff specifically so I could call [livejournal.com profile] searingidolatry and say "Help, help, I've fallen into The Gap and I can't get out!" Luckily, she found it more amusing than the security guard did.)

Have you considered getting one of the catalogues, like Littlewoods or something like that? Asda and Tesco can also have some nice things in their clothing sections.

*snickers* I've always wanted to say that. And I do actually like the Gap. They have really realistic petite sizes. We've got an M&S in town and I've been kinda disappointed in their quality, but I might try H&M and Next.

What the heck is up with the whole skinny trousers thing? Those things are made by the DEVIL. I always look like a homeless Oompa-Loompa.
