Now, i'll be honest, i've gone through phases with River Island; when I was younger I loved it, then late teens I found it to be a bit too expensive for my student income, early 20's found me feeling that the clothes were a little bit...shall we say cheap, in terms of quality and style, but not price. However recent years have found me loving it again.
In between them collaborating with fresh-out-of-college designers and heading up innovative and fresh designs and re-releasing capsule collections like the 70's throwback Chelsea Girl, there's pretty much something for everyone.
They always have a staple collection of jeans, tshirts and not too blingy jewellery, but what caught my eye yesterday, in between the gorgeous dresses and colour block tops & trousers, were the amazing accessories.
Clutch bags, slouchy hobo's, amazing heels, summery wedges and must-have satchels. I want them all!
I'd urge anyone with a penchant for accessories to go in and have a look. If you're disappointed i'll give you a fiver*.
In the meantime, here's my picks!
*might be a lie, a high-five possibly!
River are the BEST when it comes to good quality footwear on the high street. I do love their bags but I just wish they were all leather - I'd rather pay more than for PU!

I find River Island to be very hit and miss at the best of times but I've noticed recently that their shoes and bags are killing it!! It's a shame there clothes don't seem to be as great, at least my local store doesn't seem to catch my eye
