I used to love Oliver & Bonas years ago. But then realised I actually never bought a thing there. I stopped bothering to come until recently. I thought there might be something interesting to purchase for friend’s b-day. Nope, still didn’t buy a thing.
So my verdict is — shop full of useless items. Yes, they do sell some polyester or some other synthetic material clothes and scarves. Low quality eye wear, outdated jewellery and loads of books and china, which is in my opinion just a waste. No use to it. no useful information. No practical use. So why to bother?
And the birthday cards? Well, again. Such a poor range in comparison with few other shops at Angel… I strongly believe, their buyers should go somewhere either for inspiration or should be changed, because this is so not 2013, almost 2014.

Jeez, what a boring store. Can’t quite figure out who it’s aiming at. It sells cheapish, but style-free furniture, unremarkable clothes and a selection of gifts you can find almost anywhere.

I love you Oliver Bonas, I love you.
Here are all the things one might find here:
*affordably priced, well heeled jewellery.
*scarves for days and days.
*dresses. so many dresses.
*sunglasses.
*bags, wallets, purses.
*gifts. lovely gifts.
My personal stash from my man OB now includes: aviators, earrings, bracelet and a gray belt with neon accent. Roughly all for about 70 quid.
It’s not inexpensive but it surely is competitive on Upper Street. The style is fresh with accents of funk (as evidenced by the dots of neon everywhere) — and if you are seeking a gift or present for someone, this is worth a look.
The woman that helped me with the jewellery was very professional, helpful and courteous despite the mobs of women milling about the somewhat small store. I appreciated the personal touch!
*fitting rooms downstairs, along with a small children’s section.
*website also has a lot of items listed.

Ooh I luv this shop! I even have a list of where they are all around the city!
Great for nik naks, jewellery, interesting books, funky furniture, household things you don’t need but want!
Dresses, bags, candles, gifts, ah the list is endless!
Luv it luv it luv it!

I wear a lot of dresses. That should mean I buy a lot of dresses but I don’t. I am very selective as to what I spend my money on. They question I always ask myself is, «Can I leave the shop without this?» If I can’t out comes the plastic and home I go with another pretty little number.
Oliver Bonas is a mish-mash of home wear and clothing but the one thing they seem to have a lot of is cute dresses. The sell adorable outfits that aren’t too spendy either. Saying that, I’ve never actually bought a dress from here. Like I said, I’m a fuss pot! Mainly it’s just me browsing the store, dreaming of places I’d like to go wearing these dresses! The one issue I have with them though is that the dresses do come up quite short making then great for winter with thick tights, but in summer not so great. They do look a little floozy. But, sometimes you might want to look a little floozy…

Do you remember the potato chip commercial that… er, let me begin again.
Do you remember the crisp advert that…
Oh nevermind. Anyway, the punchline of this story is «You can’t eat just one,» and that’s exactly the way I feel about entering Oliver Bonas. It starts at just a nibble, I’m just peckish enough to pop in. Yet the next thing I know, I’m shoving cute dresses, belts, tights, jewelry, cook books, and household items galore into my hands, and before you know it I have an embarrassing Bonas-boner and end up devouring the entire shop in a moment of shameless compulsion.
I’m not proud of this, but I’m big enough to admit it. YUM.

I’ve been on a killer hunt for high waisted leather brown belts for aeons and aeons. Not too branded and bling, not too dull and anonymous, and finally Oliver Bonas answered my prayers. A veritable assortment of paraphernalia that left me gawping for hours, in one of the best neighbourhoods this side of the river. Delightful treats and trinkets!

This shop is along the same lines as Joy, and seems to be popping up all over London (although mainly in the south). The window display gets me every time because it highlights the fact that they have a little bit of everything in here: homeware, fashion, jewellery, books, diaries and novelty items.
It’s pretty easy to pick up a gift for just about anyone, you just have to concentrate because there are so many things to distract you! I would say that as much as I like the clothes, I feel that for the quality, it would be easier to find a similar design cheaper elsewhere.

It’s a gift shop, not the most important things in life but the things that make you feel better, nicer.
On one part you’ve got clothes, a large range of dresses and on the other one you’ve got very unique jewels like a small bow ring at £4.50
In the middle you’ve got a table with approximatively 200
books on it .and a huge sofa where of course you can sit and discuss in the middle of the other shoppers.
Downstairs, it’s about decoration, furnitures and it’s always good to have a look there for inspiration at least.
