SeanMacGabhann Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 Is there that many new users defending it? - I counted 2. Which is 2 too many (not to defend the shop. but too many IF they are connected) but not SO manyI can't see why if anyone is connected with the shop they don't just say so - you know "we've opened a shop, we have identified market x, it won't be to everyone's taste but come along and make your own mind up, no need to be so bitchy"It's worked for G&B and Seacow...Pretending to big up somewhere you are connected with is bad form and I normally moan about it - but in this case even if the "new people" are connected, it WAS after 4 or 5 pages of fairly vicious attacks - I have SOME sympathy with them. I still think they are better off engaging with potential audience Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/3326-davina-boutique-82-lordship-lane/page/6/#findComment-110184 Share on other sites More sharing options...
monica Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 I live in croydon i have a shop on lordshiplane so i must be a classy italian chav then. Get it right all the chavs are in bromley not croydon.Croydon has the drunks, troublemakers and trash who like to kill each other on a friday night and as i type i hear the familiar friday night police siren go on and on and on.Back to topic, chavs would never be seen in a shop like davina because their benefits wouldnt stretch that far, they need money for icelands, pay the bills and the catalogue, so Davina is not a chav shop its a upmarket place that caters to certain tastes Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/3326-davina-boutique-82-lordship-lane/page/6/#findComment-110186 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bow to you and your family for breaking the Croydon mould and not only becoming educated yourself but having the good fortune, against all the odds to make a successful marriage. Well done!!I'm pleased you have made a success in business, I'm assuming if it's Croydon based then it involves sports wear for people who wear it while actively avoiding any form of physical activity.My I take issue with you about the accusation of snobbery? I have the smallest of staff possible for a gentleman. My valet is allowed to donate my cast-offs to his family, my cook is at liberty to carry home each tripe and entrail that I'm not encined towards, and as for the tweenie, I've made no advances upon her person. 'Pon my Sam.Most of the time just so you know, the silver spoon isn't in my mouth, I tuck it rakishly behind my right ear. Just pulling your leg!! The silver is in the safe keeping of my valet, Stebbings. And he knows to keep it safe, or else he and his family will be summarily dismissed with no reference and a stain on them that will follow them through society.THEY SHALL RUE THE DAY THEY CROSSED ME! ! !Nice to make your acquaintance Irina, I hope one day we may take tea together.

RosieH Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 Don't think these are proley tart shoes, some are around ?200 a pop, and Longchamp bags are decidedly not for the scummy mummyAnd actually i'm going to eat humble pie. Having slgged it on the basis of the website, i decided to do the right thing and look inside the shop. There ARE some nasties in there, but i saw a couple of pairs that i really liked and am contemplating a purchase - i'd get the bag too, but is a bit pricey for me....

Asset Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 okay, perhaps I was a bit harsh yesterday. It is not shit and I think I was one of the first to defend the place when others were deriding it as being not right for round these parts oo aaar. I did get a bit wound up by the - okay not loads, 2 - new posters getting all uppity (still suspicious).I did go in looking for a specific kind of thing and there was nothing in there that grabbed me particularly and most of the shoes do look a bit tacky IMO, I hate shoe shopping though. As I said earlier for ?200 I'd rather spend a wee bit more and get some Louboutins but chacun a son gout or summing like that.
