Boutique SPY 3
17-05-2008
Welcome to this week's Boutique SPY
As the name suggests 'Boutique S.P.Y.' is on the look out for the most gorgeous boutiques in and around London. Every week we report on the best boutiques we have come across.
Sometimes we forget that we are living in one of the most dynamic cities in the world and are amongst the very best in designer boutiques. In a recent survey conducted by the consumer board the people who assess the way in which we shop and what we shop for have concluded, that we are getting a bit fed up with the same old same old!

What do they mean by same old same old? Well basically, your Primark, your Tesco etc. Whilst there doesn't seem to be much of a problem when it comes to paying the prices at these stores there seems to be a lack of individual creativity in design so consumers do end up in a bit of a catch 22 situation.
Consumers want lovely clothes and designs with good quality fabrics that do not deteriorate over two washes, but at the same time are not willing to pay over the odds for a garment.
With the current state of the economy and soring household bills its no wonder that consumers are holding fast to their pennies.
That said there's nothing wrong with spoiling yourself now and then and we have hunted down another gem for our Boutique SPY. Dresses are a huge trend this summer and this little boutique is dedicated just to that!
The dresses are simply delicious and are in a range of differnet styles and fabrics…

Traffic People
The Traffic People girl embracing being all things feminine.
With its usual nod to eras past Traffic People has indulged in floating silks for the girl who longs for old time glamour parties and romantic strolls on the beach.
When her mood changes from Doris Day to Ava Gardener she can be seen in the glitter Grecian Goddess that is fast becoming their signature dress, a dress it is impossible not to feel beautiful in.
But always with Traffic People all clothes must be acessorized with a knowing smile because "It ain't easy being this gorgeous".
