Matchbox - Carl Perkins

Advantages: Good selection, offer discounts for students.
Disadvantages: Some items can be pricey

...I have to say that Dorothy Perkins is fast becoming one of my favourite shops to buy clothes, for any occasion. I can always find what I am looking for and the good thing is that because it is so popular nowadays, there is nearly always a branch on my door step. There is also a website where you can buy items online.

Advantages: Great clothes high street prices and good refund system
Disadvantages: quite expensive

The refund system is quite good and easyi bought a top last week for someone but found it was the wrong size. i took it back and aked for a refund and they gave me one allthough they did ask for my details and my receipt which you expect. Dorothy perkins has a wide range of clothes and selections including a tall and petite section. Clothes in dorethy perkins vary from going out to going down town. the acessories expensive but last a long time.... Read review

Advantages: Excently laid out store
Disadvantages: spending too much money

...I have been shopping at dorothy Perkins for some years now and I have nearly always found the staff very polite and helpfull and I find the clothes quality very good and I have pieces in my wardrobe that have been there for some years that are still in fab condition. However I am not reviewing the shop as such I wanted to review the service i had there the other day. I went into my local dorothy perkins in Cardiff city centre which is a fairly new store and the layout is fantastic there are 3 floors.

Entering the store When you walk into the store you enter ont he middle floor which is accessories the displays are fantastic and all accessories are grouped in colours so you will find all the gold bags, belts, purses ect in one section...
