I shop there,its cool for disposable fun fashion.But I dont think anyone who shop there expects the clothes to last.
I also shop at Peacocks which is even better than Primark or Primani as some people have started calling it.
The only way you can get away with wearing cheap clothing is to have an expensive handbag and expensive shoes,otherwise your look will reek of chav..never mind ghetto.
I aint asking for nothing,just open the door and i\'ll take it myself-James Brown.

Also if you are young which I suspect you are and some of the Lewish-ites you mentioned you can get away with wearing budget clothes.

Yeah I save up for quality stuff too,but I also like the cheap stuff in Primark and Peacocks.
So I dont care if people know I only paid a fiver for a top,for me its more important to invest in good shoes,handbags and coats,i'm not really bothered too much about the other stuff.

primark is the place to go for a bargain, i dont watch labels and dont business bout what people say. my cousins alwasy like thats nice and im like xyz primark. i can afford to shop elsewhere but why buy a skirt for 30 quid when primark do the exact same skirt for 5 quid same material etc
jettblack listen its all about that nice handbag and nice shoes......but you know what i have bought some bargain shoes highly fashionable which are still going
peacocks thats shop is doing its stuff i love their sales but you know there is nothing like a primark sale its like their just giving it away.
everyone i know rocks primark. even the ones that dress in designer
aint no shame its not about wearing someone elses name
does anyone know if the primark has opened up its west end or oxford circus store yet. i will be there
primark in birmingham is heavy. its on three floors and massive.
peckham tooting very good too
i bought a glitter cardi for 30 quid it tore after 1 day. that wouldnt happen if it cost me 10 quid in primark...my boss calls it primera posh clothes for less dosh lol
Think outside of the box...Think in spirit
Act as if it were impossible to fail!!!

You and me both jett! People are schocked when I say I've spent upwards of £100 on footwear etc but my justification is simple. I spend half my life in primark so i'm entitled to a damn treat! Womens fashion changes soooo quickly, its pointless spending nuff on cirtain things when you wond even be wearing it in a few months time.Funnily enough, i decided i needed some nice new shoes for work and got a lovely pair from office for £54.99. I wore them once before the leather on the little ****ers split :X.I sent them back to head office and the *******s refused to refund them. Yet, i've bought cute little pumps and even boots from Primark and they're goin strong long after i done worn them all 100 times over. So that makes me question the quality about a LOT of things these days let alone primark!

Shoes I cant mess about with,i'm very particular,yeah ive seen some nice"tribute"styles,but whilst i'm not at all a designer whore,im reeeeeeeeeeaaaaal particular about the quality of leather in my handbags and shoes,so I cant budget shop for those.
