I've had some good buys from McArthur Glen at Swindon and Cheshire Oaks. I had an amazing bargain on a Hobbs Suit (skirt and jacket for about £120) and an LK Bennett dress (£29!).
Yeah too trendy can be a problem. I also need any suit to have trousers, as we’ve got a strict policy about wearing skirts and dresses in certain situations (after a poor lady barrister was raped by a client in the cells of a Courthouse in the UK). It’s easy to mismatch dresses and jackets (did it today) but harder with trousers.

We’re taking our dog to Chester for a scan soon so might see if I can drag hubby to Cheshire Oaks, as the pooch will be in the vets for a few hours.

Just googled and Top Shop do them so might be worth a look as for what else they do?
