A boutique visit

When I found out how close by Primrose Hill Boutique was,  I decided to drop in.

Primrose Hill Boutique. Shifnal. 

Now this is not a sponsored post.  I knew about the boutique, and followed on Instagram, after winning a blouse in a competition.  A couple of weeks ago, Jenny, sent me a jacket and top.  This came out of the blue and they were gratefully received.  I decided it was finally time to pay a visit to say thank you in person.




The shop itself has a wonderfully relaxed atmosphere and the welcome that you receive is so friendly.  This is always a huge plus, don't you think?  Another plus was that all the clothing is displayed using wooden hangers.  This, in my humble opinion, is an absolute must.  A walk around the shop offers up footwear, accessories, homeware and a wide variety of clothing at an extremely reasonable price point.

After a good natter,  and a mooch around,  I asked Jenny if I should do a bit of a try on.  Total fun.

I even tackled dresses and skirts.  I am on such a roll with them I thought that I needed be brave and continue.


I absolutely loved this dress by Sugarhill


Denim Jacket by Ichi and Skirt from Saint Tropez

At this point I must say that the lighting, in the changing rooms at Primrose Hill, is superb.  Brilliant photographer's lamp pods that I now have the details for.  No flies on me.  I just have to get them passed the hubby,  who may just notice if they appeared at the farm.

I am no expert, when it comes to the 'try on' thing, but I have to say that I found it particularly easy.  Maybe it was the good lighting.  It was definitely the great selection of clothing and all accompanied by my faithful Stan Smiths!

I am thrilled that this, in part, has increased my confidence to venture away from my usual comfort zone.  I love my jackets, t-shirts and jeans but felt really wonderful in the jumpsuits, skirts and dresses.  I didn't have much time for jumpsuits before but, dare I say,  I may have been converted.

It was wonderful to be able to actually meet  Jenny.  She is knowledgeable and warm and I would thoroughly recommend a visit if you are in the area.

Primrose Hill Boutique can be found at Number 2, Market Place. Shifnal. Shropshire.


All smiles.


It is a joy to find local boutiques with dynamism and enthusiasm.  It is so important to gain true, personal service rather than just being one of the crowd in the major fashion chains.  I also checked and Jenny confirmed that the revised website is now fully up and running.

Happy shopping

P.S  I should've bought the green dress.
