They look quite promising in the shop; and not entirely without hope when I get them back into my wardrobe. But then, when I put them on they tend to deteriorate with a very strange rapidity and one feels so sorry for them.
I wake up at 5:30 in the morning, get to the Pawn Shop at six, work out for two hours, film until seven at night.
I don’t want to be doing fashion shoots and being interviewed about where I shop. Who cares?
My generation was maybe the last in which you could set up shop as a writer and hope to make a living at it.
I love cheese. It intensified when I moved to France. It felt like my cheese shop lady was my dealer because every week I’d say, ‘I need this cheese, I need that cheese’, and she’d cut me enough for the week but I’d finish a whole piece in one go.
Customers don’t just want to shop: they want to feel that the brand understands them.
The one thing I’m really excited about is that the Saint Heron shop is not grounded in just fashion and clothing. We have connected with artists and artisans in every landscape.
My mother Molly had a nervous breakdown after my father Chic died, aged 50. He was a very generous man who ran a shop in Dundee giving a lot of people tick. When he died, a lot of people hadn’t paid their bills, so he died with a lot of debt. After he died, my mother went doolally.
I love to find a great vintage secondhand shop.
Honestly, before I started working at the comic shop, I was not a huge comic reader. I grew up reading ‘Archie’ and have an incredible love/hate relationship with Archie Comics. I got back into it when I started living with some roommates who were really comics fanatics.
A neighborhood friend showed me how it was possible to go to a camera shop and pick up chemicals for pennies… literally… and develop your own film and make prints.
Our first visit to the Creature Shop is one of the days I will never, ever forget. There was just so much to see and admire and be gobsmacked by.
My nana ji has a shop in Bapu Bazaar. Every summer, after my final exams, my mother would pack me off to my grandparents’ home in Jaipur where we would visit nana ji’s shop and I would roam around the market, holding his finger, wearing those cute Jaipuri lehengas.
23andMe set out to try and change healthcare – this is not an easy business. This is not a coffee shop in Austin.
Being an educated consumer is the best way to shop for nutritious, disease-preventing foods.
If my goal is to become a movie star, me working at a pizza shop won’t help me. I have to make the stars align.
I do shop online! But I’m shopping online mostly in the home categories – One Kings Lane and Gilt. At a lot of architectural websites, I buy a lot of hardware for cabinetry like hinges and things like that from England. So, you know, for me, I shop at Net-A-Porter, but I don’t really shop that much for clothing online.
For my fragrance, I knew I wanted something sweet but with a different side to it. I have a lot of vanilla notes and bakery shop scents, but then I also have muskier notes that make it a bit edgier. It’s fun but also sophisticated.
I was, like, 12 or 13; the first hip hop song I tried to rapping to was Macklemore’s ‘Thrift Shop,’ and my English was so bad, but learning to rap to different songs really helped me with my pronunciation, and looking at the lyrics on Rap Genius and stuff like that.
I just went to the hobby shop and got an electricity kit and a chemistry kit, and I’m really excited to do experiments like squeezing an egg into a bottle and growing crystals. I’m really getting into hobbies.
I don’t buy trends, because the pieces don’t last and I wind up never wearing them. That’s why I like to shop with my children; they’ll always tell me the truth.
It’s just really important I think for fashion to be affordable, because everyone should have the opportunity to wear cute things and be happy and comfortable in what they are wearing. That’s definitely how I like to shop and how I like to think about clothes and fashion.
My mother likes to say that I was conceived to shop – not just born to shop. My whole life as a child was following her and her sister and friends around on her shopping trips.
I want my songs to be enjoyed by those who travel in a town bus and they should be played repeatedly in a tea shop.
I’m not a businessman. I could pack it in, but I like work. I don’t want to sound like Catherine Cookson, but I’ve worked since I was eight, with a paper round and in a fruit and veg shop.
I feel like there’s so many places to shop today that just feel like an Excel spreadsheet put between four walls.
To see where I’ve stolen all my ideas from, look no further than the comics at your local comic shop!
I love fashion! I love clothes! I really like vintage clothes, so in my closet there’s a lot of ’50s stuff. I go to the stores and shop around.
I get recognized now and again, but the paparazzi aren’t following me around. I get to go to the shop and buy bread and milk, and no one worries me.
The Southern Ground warehouse is rocking and rolling in Atlanta, with a T-shirt shop and a leather shop; everything we’re selling at our shows we’re making or publishing ourselves.
Very few people know this, but I love organizational products and tools. One of my favorite places to shop are container stores where you can get bins, boxes and crates to organize your life.
Since my family owns the Trump National Doral, I spend a lot of time on the course. Trump Doral’s Golf Shop is the largest pro shop in the country and carries limited-edition pieces and exclusive brands.
The problem with taking amps to a shop is that they come back sounding like another amp.
All workers, whether they are employed in the private or public sector, should avoid living ‘paycheck to paycheck.’ Studies show that every household wastes 10% or more of its salary or income on unnecessary expenditures or by not taking the time to shop for better prices. It’s all a matter of proper budgeting.
My mum worked in a grocery shop and played football, and my dad worked with cars, a sales director, and he played to almost a professional level. His dad played as well.
I never read any fairy tales or classics until I was an adult; all we ever had was comics… No television, either. If we wanted entertainment, we hung around the fish shop.
French women love to shop and prepare food. They love to talk about what they have bought and made. It’s a deeply natural love, but one that is erased in many other cultures. Most French women learn it from their mothers, some from their fathers. But if your parents aren’t French, you can still learn it yourself.
