River Island

River Island
River Island is a shop that I have only recently began enjoying to shop at. It stands out for its modern and up to date styles, along with their casual day to day casual wear. They can always be relied on for a great going out look, including your shoes, bag and jewellery to go along with it! They pride themselves in being a store that you can just pick up everything you need for a new look in one place.

Almost all of River Island’s products are designed in house, which gives an extra personalised feel to customers and the customers know they can trust this brand. River Island are proud that they can deliver new fashion in-store and online every single week! With over 350 stores over the UK, Ireland and international, and over 60 years of retail experience it is now one of the most loved brands on the high street.

‘River Island’ actually began as a small department store selling fruit and veg, as well as some household goods, under the title of Lewis Separate. The store continued to grow and branched out into fashion, music and more popular culture. After two of the owners left, the brand changed and teamed up with ‘Chelsea Girl’ to become one retail brand, which was River Island.

"At River Island we are renowned for out stylish, affordable fashion. The unique touches we bring to our collections help us standout from the rest of the High Street. Our customers can always rely on us for great going-out looks and occasion wear, amazing denim and fabulous bags and shoes. We pride ourselves on being the perfect store to pick up everything you need for a brand new head-to-toes look."
My Top 5 Picks
Black Rose Print lace detail bodycon dress

As the weather starts to get better as we move into spring, this is a great dress to wear during the day as something casual. Even just pairing it with a leather jacket and some converse would look great.




Black Shirring Smock Top

I’ve been looking for a blouse style top for a while that I can wear for any occasion and think this fits perfectly. The long sleeves are able to keep this top casual and something that can be worn with jeans and boots for a day to day look.






Mid blue ripped mom jeans

It can be difficult to find the right style of jeans that suit you, and mom jeans is s style that has only recently come back into style. They are able to make you stand out in a sea of skinny jeans, while walking through town.





Grey Faux Suede Bucket Bag

A new bag is my favourite thing to buy from River Island, they can always be trusted to sell you a bag that can suit any occasion. All my bags that’s I have bought from here always last for as long as I need them to and stay intact.




Black floral embroidered heels

Embroidery has found itself on nearly everything lately, tops, jumpers, bags and shoes! It is able to make a simple black heal stand out from the crowd with a simple design, but keeps it simple all at the same time.







Look out for the next post where I will be taking about MAC.

  1. Ooh, I do love a mom jean - perfect on those of us with a small waist but "more generous bottom"! Are you planning to profile any online only retailers in your blog? I think it might also be useful if you could give an idea of what the online options are with the high street shops - River Island do click and collect in store, for example, which is really handy if you've seen something in a magazine or on a blog but can't find it in your local shop.

    1. I did think about doing online shops also, but thought that a lot of high street shops are more developed and have a lot more history behind them, so I stuck with that!
