NEED YOUR ADVICE/HELP

I am helping Vodafone with a project where they have to find the best and most unique fashion shops in London, Paris, Milan, Berlin and Barcelona for their new shopping app.


I have been to all of these cities, but as I am not a local, its hard for me to pick the best 5 and there is where you come in! :D
Let me know which are your favorite shops in any of these cities, you can write as many shops as you want and why you love this shop so much … I am sure you have more than one favorite!


Once I collect all your information, I will make a post with your top 5 of each city, that way you will also have a nice guide if you ever visit any of these cities.


Thank you so much for the help and have an amazing weekend!

Estoy ayudando a Vodafone con un proyecto en el que tenemos que encontrar las mejores tiendas de moda en Londres, Paris, Milan, Berlin y Barcelona, pero a pesar de que ya he visitado todas estas ciudades, es difícil para mi saber cuales son las mejores tiendas, ya que no vivo ahí, es por eso que necesito su ayuda :D


Les agradecería muchísimo si me pudieran decir cuales son sus tiendas favoritas en estas ciudades y por que, seguramente tienen su lista de tiendas favoritas, ¿No? ;)


Una vez que colecte toda la información que me den, voy a hacer una entrada en la que publicare el top 5 de cada ciudad, para que ustedes también puedan tener una pequeña guía si alguna vez visitan alguna de estas ciudades.


¡Muchísimas gracias por su ayuda y que tengan un excelente fin de semana y felices pascuas!

  7. Hii! i will like to help you, so here it comes:LONDON: As some people say, the Oxford Circus topshop's store is a must-stop. Also, Abercrombie & Fitch in London is really good, and it's more than a shop (located on Burlington Gardens)Camden Market is really good for vintage and odd clothes and it's quite cheap, but I'm not sure if you consider it as a shop! hahahope this helps!A.

  8. so since I live i berlin, i give it a go :-)One of the best shoe stores in the whole city is a shop called shusta.The special thing about that store is, that the shop is inside an old house. So you have to go upstairs into a flat, an when i enter you wont believe your eyes. Its just a paradise of shoes and clothes. And then there is the quartier 206 in friedrichstr. where you can find flagshipstores of all famous brands form marc jacobs to yves saint laurent. The bad thing about that is..of course..anytime you go to do some ,,windowshopping" you find a must have thing. and the you do it like ,,close my eyes and here is my credit card"Anohter nice and verry small store is called D.O.D.O. its just a verry small an unique place. The owner and designer of the shop produces bags an accessoiries inside the shop. Every piece is unique and you wont find it a second time. From purses to umbrellas the designer does everything by herself. This place is one of the insidertipps which you wont find in any toursit guide!so i hope i could help you a little bitWith best regards from BerlinTalisa

  9. Andy! que proyecto tan prometedor!yo no vivo en Barcelona, pero suelo ir bastante!mis tiendas favorita son Gonzalo Comella, puedes encontrar ropa de multiples marcas: Paul Smith, Marc Jacobs, Chloé…y Santa Eulalia por supuesto! ademas, la han renovado hace nada y está enfocada a gente mas joven: Balenciaga, Miu Miu, Proenza Schouler…espero que te haya servido de ayuda!XOXO

  10. the corner in berlin is a-mazing! and the department store cabinet too! oh and the acne store! :)i love selfridge's in london! and public beware!!

  11. Though I can't really help you, I think it would help if you'd ask friends from other blogs from different countries. Chiara could probably help you with Milan and probably even other places. Good luck!

  12. I already went to paris, london and barcelona but I've never really shopped there.. I can understand why it's difficult, most stores are international that are the most fun and affordable.

  13. I would say Anthropologie in London,the clothes are not really fashion forward but the store is beautiiiiiiiiiiiful and everything is such a good quality. G'LUCK!

  14. london, Rokit vintage on brick lane is absolutely my favorite vintage shop in any city ever.x Camillaintothefoldfashion.blogspot.com

  15. Heey Andy!! Soy de Madrid, y al igual que tu he tenido la gran suerte de poder conocer todas estas maravillosas ciudades.. Haber te cuento: en Paris la mejor es Colette, en Londres esta Topshop, aunque tambien esta Abercrombie & Fitch, en Berlin esta COS y ACNE, en Barcelona hay muchiisimos vintage, aunque sin duda me quedo cn las tiendas americanas de Forever21 y American Apparel, y en Milan.. Que decir de Milan!! Donde estan las mejores tiendas!! :) pero me quedo sin duda con Corso Como ;) ME ENCANTA TU BLOG Y LO SIGO SIEMPRE!! ;)Fallinthefashionworld.blogspot.com

  20. I love Beyond Retro in London. It's a second hand shop, not that expensive, with unique pieces and an all around very nice costumey vibe. You shouldn't miss it!

  21. London: Liberty, it's amazing, you have everything you want, vintage clothes, brands like isabelle marant, acne, wang etc, bags, perfumes, chocolate, … and the shop is beautiful!Paris: Colette, it's original, there's always new stuff and it's not all about clothesHope it can help you, good luck ;)

  22. Hola Andy! A ver, de Barcelona yo creo que ya te han dicho varias que a mi también se me hacen las más cool..mis favoritas son COS y Bimba&Lola..y por otro lado estan: Coquette, Santa Eulalia y QK (en la calle Calvet, aquí siempre tienen cosas lindiiiisimas) y si entras a este blog:http://trendslabbcn.blogspot.com/tienen una sección q se llama LOCALizados, donde van poniendo tiendas muy monas y únicas aquí en Bcn..igual te sirve..Si te averiguo otras mas lowprofile q esten cool te digo..besito!mini

  23. That's a great project! Here are some of my favourite stores in Paris. -Kiliwatch, 64 rue Tiquetonne-Alternatives, 18 rue de roi de Sicile-Sessùn, 30 rue Charonne-The Kooples, 191 rue Saint-honoré

  24. This should be a good app. Really there are not enough good shopping apps most of them are so boring and don't give you all the info you need….personally I would love a sale finder app that could find sales with in your radius or online that would be awesome.

  25. theres an amazing marc by marc jacobs store somewhere on rue de rivoli.. its not exactly unique but you know..im looking forward to seeing your list :)

  26. In Paris of course : Free'P'Star!And when they also search something for Hamburg-Germany than it is "Kleidermarkt" An all the little fleamarkts!!!What a nice idea with the shopping -app!

  27. oh! forgot to say coquette and como agua de mayo for barcelona! i know, more than five, but they're very good for independent and multi-brand shops here. :)cheers,carol

  28. Paris :- Colette- le 66-MERCI- freep's'star (vintage)- le vintage bar- all shops in Le Marais…mylittleparis.comdoitinparis.fr;) XoXo from Paris

  30. Hola Andy!!!Las mejores tiendas para mi son:en BARCELONA:- Santa Eulalia, en Po de Gracia.- La Comercial, en C/ Bonaire, en la zona del Born.Estas dos son más famosas, en versión más mini, pero no por ello menos encantadoras:- Le Monde de Sophie en C/ Santaló num. 58- Etxart&Panno en el Paseo del Born.Por la zona del Born hay un montón de tiendecitas de jóvenes diseñadores, es mi zona favorita..Podría poner un montón más, pero estas son para mi, unas de las mejores..En Londres me gusta mucho Urban Outfitters, All Saints, Chloé i la boutique de Stella Mcartney.Un besazo!!!

  31. hey andy,here it goes: London: public beware, dover st market, beyond retro, the laden showroom and topshop oxford circus, just to give that high street appeal to it! :) but if you don't want any high street, you can change for bordello, best lingerie EVAH.Paris: have been only a few times, but i like to visit colette whenever i go. i also love the kooples (now they also have a shop in london), carven, coiffeur vintage and pleats please.Barcelona: my hometown now (although i'm a londoner at heart!), i have to say i love bimba y lola, santa eulalia, la comercial, jofré y sita murt. oh, and le swing vintage! damn, that's six. milan: have to say corso como, like everyone else. lol. d-magazine and il salvagente are great outlets (i always find something there when i go – last time it was a skirt and a top from miu miu's s/s 10 collection!). franco jacassi has AH-MAZING vintage, one of the best collections i've ever seen, and cavalli e nastri is also one of my favourite. never been to berlin so… sorry, but can't help on that one. but i hope you like my selection! :)cheers,carolp.s.: would you mind giving me an interview for my blog? it's directed towards the brazilian market and i'd loooove to have you around one day. ;)

  32. Barcelona.-la tienda Sephora (maquillaje, etc) es muy muy grande. (centro El triangle, plaza catalunya)-a mucha gente le impacta el HyM de Portal de l'Àngel, por su entrada con escaleras y pantallas de colores a los lados.

  33. Pues de Barcelona te voy a dar 2! El H&M del Portal de l'àngel (nose si lo viste, un H&M enorme, con luces de neon en la entrada).y la Santa Eulalia… que ahora la han remodelado y es muy bonita.xx

  34. Very cool! I'm in the U.S,, but I slways lovefinding rare pieces on Etsy.com, which is accessible worldwide :)http://www.etsy.com/shop/BossyMossyBeads

  35. Hola Andy, soy Carmen y vivo en Barcelona. La verdad es que hay muchísimas tiendas pero a mi parecer una de las más emblemáticas es Santa Eulalia( su web es http://www.santaeulalia.com/es/). Yo he estado para varios eventos como blogger y és una preciosidad. Venden las mejores marcas y hace poquito que han hecho reformas y han mejorado el local.Bueno no te entretengo más (parece que trabaje allí, je, je..) Un saludo.

  36. lo siento mucho guapa!!yo soy de Madrid y no te puede ayudar, si te interesa Madrid, dímelo que tengo una lista SUPER larga!!besoshttp://elbauldeladyshira.blogspot.com/

  37. Maybe boring, but I find Selfridges in London AMAZING! Obviously there are more, smaller, local shops that deserve attention, but I am only living in London for 6 months now, so I leave that up to the Londoners :)xo Charlottewww.thefashionguitar.com

  38. Such a fun idea! Andrew Logan Jewellery – 2 Melior Place, London Each piece of jewellery is hand made and individual and totally gorgeous. Plus theres always some Zandra Rhodes clothing about because they are best friends. Easily the most english jewellery ever! http://andrewlogan.com/shop/

  39. En Barcelona, la boutique multimarca Santa Eulàlia, tiene más de 100 años y la acaban de reinaugurar, os recomiendo que le echéis un vistazo… Tiene las mejores marcas de lujo, no asequible para todos los bolsillos, pero la tienda es preciosa, y tiene una cafetería en el interior abierta al público http://www.santaeulalia.com/es/Como tienda online que también os recomiendo es Fashion Pills, es nueva y muy asequible para todos, tiene unos outfits preciosos con infinitas combinaciones y consejos de moda prácticos. Tiene las oficinas en Barcelona pero vende por toda España. Aquí os dejo el link: http://www.fashion-pills.com/

  40. Andy! como siempre tus posts son geniales y como no si podemos ayudarte a encontrar las mejores tiendas lo haremos con mucho gusto! Yo vivo en Barcelona desde siempre y las 2 mejores tiendas para mi son: Santa Eulalia y Jofré, dos tiendas situadas en la mejor zona de Barcelona donde se pueden encontrar grandes firmas como Louboutin o Alexander Wang entre muchísimas más!besos desde Barcelona :)

  41. London: Public Beware, Office , Rokit Vintage, the laden showroom, Urban Outfitters, SELFRIDGE's!Berlin: Department Store cabinet, MTWTFSS weekday, COS, acne

  42. Me parece una idea padrísima lo de poner en el siguiente post las 5 mejores tiendas de cada ciudad! Yo no te puedo ayudar pero proximamente voy a visitar algunas de esas ciudades y me encantaria tener una referencia :)

  43. Although I'm not a local, I thought the two best (vintage, second hand) shops in Berlin were:Waahnsinn Berlin (Rosenthaler Straße 17, Berlin Mitte)andMade In Berlin (Neue Schönhauser Straße 19, Berlin Mitte)Hope I could help :)

  44. cool stores in berlin:COSthe corner am gendarmenmarkt, apartment münzstraße/neue schönhauserstraße andreas murkudis neue schönhauser straße quartier 206http://juliasstyleutopia.blogspot.com/

  45. Hi Andy, so I live in Paris, and I'd say that my favorite shop is Colette for its originality and crazinessA week and half ago I was in Berlin, I get to do some shops, and even if I haven't made them all for sure, my favorite was "Garage". It's a vintage shop, there're so many choices that they sell clothes per kg. Let me explain this : for 1 kg of clothes you'll pay 14€ (13,99€) I spent an entire afternoon in it, having fun, finding a looooot of things, I even tried a bride dress ahah it was cool. Definitely the coolest one!Then there was also "Made in Berlin" which is another vintage shop, associated to Garage. It was really nice, but there were less choices and sometimes it was pretty expensive for vintage but anyway, they have gorgeous things!I've been to the others (expect Milan) but I can't say which one is my favorite :/

  46. Hi Andy!Here is the list of my favorite shops in Paris:L'Eclaireur ( rue de Sévigné) is probably the most amazing shop in paris, they have a great selection of young designers and the shop is a piece of art in itself.Colette, of courseI don't know if you are looking for multibrand shops only but the Dries van Noten shop is really unique and beautiful. My own favorite is French Trotter because they have a great selection of affordable brands, thay are super nice and give great advice. http://www.frenchtrotters.frHope this will help!

  47. would have loved to help out but not from these cities :) In case you need advice about brussels, i'm your man ! (well…girl ^^)

  48. this are best shops in my opinionLondon: Brown, LibertyParis: L'eclarieur, ColetteMilano: Corso Como, Banner..it's a pity you don't need rome!!I could tell you loads of good shops as I am a personal shopper!!!:)xoxoxoxhttp://theshoppingstylist.blogspot.com/

  49. Hola Andy !Pues en Londres me encanta ir a Topshop, la tienda se que no es unica de la ciudad pero es que la de Oxford Street es increible ! Ademas de la tienda de Manolo Blahnik *___*Espero haberte ayudado :))http://aasplace.blogspot.com/
