Didn't we have an amazing day yesterday? It was just so hot, I believe it was around 30 degrees and very sunny. Just one of those sporadic really hot days in the UK.
I made the best of it and decided to pay a visit to Bicester Village, in Oxfordshire, which is an outlet shopping complex, where brands sell items at discounted prices.
I first heard about it around 3 years ago, when it was small but very promising, since then shops have now multiplied with many amazing and posh brands such as D&G, Dior, Jimmy Choo and VW to name a few.
It's a cute little place.
It was lovely, my girlfriend and I managed to spend a whole day there! There are around 130 little shops and we spent 6 hrs in there, we had long, good browse. It was like a marathon. :-)
Q: Now, is it the price really amazing?
A: That is a tricky question, it depends, on many factors but giving a brief idea...
1. Your budget (is large).
2. Are you looking for something special? Are you saving your money for an amazing bag or would have a special occasion to go to?
In that case, yes! You can definitely snap something really gorgeous for an amazing price.
1. Your budget (is small).
2. You are not looking for anything in particular.
Ponder, have a good look around. There are not that many super bargains. Some shops do good deals like Puma for instance, had many items on buy 1 and get second 1/2 price. Some others, do extra discounts if you buy in larger quantity. Keep an eye for signs in the stores.
Also, many shops in London are on sale already with discounts reaching 70% in some cases. Thus, it will be no different if you buy from the outlet or the shop. Anyways, if you have the patience to go there it's good fun.
Me having a must needed rest at Matthew Williamson's shop.
Some bargains at Matthew Williamson. (I remember this top from few seasons back! I think it was around £30, a little bargain.)
Well, as you guys can see we had a really good time and a few little bags to bring home with us too. Hurray!
See you soon.
