Currently Loving Gilly Hicks
Currently Loving Gilly Hicks
 |
I feel like I missed out on the whole, Hollister, Gilly Hicks obsession. I was more of a Jacks Wills girl when I was a teenager, and by the time the Abercrombie & Fitch stores started to arrive in my beloved Bluewater, I was more interested in other brands. But recently, I decided to have a little browse in Gilly Hicks as I wanted some new pjs & underwear. I discovered that the Gilly Hicks in Bluewater had a second level which id never noticed before (probably becuase its a bit of a maze in there!) and upstairs I discovered all of their cosmetics and perfumes. I gave all 3 perfumes a test and fell in love with one called Piper Point, which smells of juicy pear, guava & sandalwood. Its RRP is £38 which isnt too bad for an eau de parfum, BUT I then noticed that all fragrances had 50% off which of course completely sold it to me! I also love the bottle. Its classic, and beautifully simple and it looks perfect on my dressing table. I also picked up a body splash which come in these huge 250ml glass bottles. Hastings Blush is a peachy scent and so pretty! The body splashes are much more subtle and obviously dont last as long on your skin as the perfumes, but, theyre great for a quick spritz and even work well as room sprays. (not one for your bag though, its rather heavy!) If you manage to get your hands on the Roseberry Opal body splash, I would say grab it! Its the nicest one (in my opinion) and was completely sold out. The body splashes were originally £20 so I got mine for £10! I also picked up some pretty new underwear, in their 5 for £20 offer. They have a large selection of colours, but I went for navy, mint, lime, pale pink and bright pink lace ones, and even though theyre not top quality, they are really nice for the price. Ive been told that Gilly Hicks is going to be rebranded in April and is merging with Hollister, (I was obviously too late on the band wagon here!) but im sure that means lots of good sales in the next couple of months, so if you have one local to you, get in there quick!
