Street Style: Shoreditch Shopping in Boxpark

Posted March 21, 2012 by Nicely Turned Out in Street Style

Declaring itself the first pop-up mall and constructed entirely of shipping containers, Boxpark by Shoreditch High Street station was due a visit. With most shops taking up one container, they held just enough choice to whet my appetite; cozy but big enough to squeeze in fitting rooms and helpful staff. If like me you get dizzy just thinking of entering Oxford Circus Topshop, then this is the place for you. With hipster essentials OnePiece and Levi’s, food pit stops such as Pieminster and pin-up lingerie shop Playful Promises, there’s something for most folk. Preppy boys are well provided for with One True Saxon and Original Penguin amongst others, and there’s plenty of style inspiration to be found from visitors and staff alike.
