Shopping and history |
Kings Inch Road Glasgow G51 4BN United Kingdom +44 141 885 4600 http://www.braehead.co.uk/ |
Braehead Shopping and Leisure Centre is a wonderfully self-contained shopping and leisure experience. Fashion big names like Kookai and Monsoon nestle comfortably with toyshop, opticians, travel agents, hairdressers, jewelers, photographers and gift emporiums. When you're all shopped out, retire to the food court that expands over two floors and watch the ice-skaters. Look out for special events on their state-of-the-art ice arena and at the Braehead Curling Rink. Next door at the Braehead Arena you will also find music concerts, basketball and ice hockey games, wrestling matches, and other exciting events. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Curling equipment |

Curling Supplies (trading as Corston Sinclair Ltd) operates from a 40,000 square foot factory in East Kilbride, providing a full range of clothing and equipment for the Scottish sport of curling. For over 12 years, it has supplied ice rinks and sports shops both home and abroad. For the curler on the street, this is also the place to come. Claiming to stock 12 different styles of curling shoes, 15 different brushes, three styles of gloves and mitts, as well as slacks, sliders and anti-sliders, the showroom is surely worth a visit to any keen curler who is passing by.

 Sophisticated styles with a subtle ethnic flavour |
17 Princes Square 48 Buchanan Street Glasgow G1 3JN United Kingdom +44 141 221 8783 http://www.monsoon.co.uk/ |
Old wood and ornate mirrors give Monsoon a classic, luxurious feel that is reflected in the clothes. Opulent fabrics (wool, angora, silk, cashmere) are very much in vogue, as are deep, rich colors - jewel reds and blues, rain forest greens. The style tends towards frills, lace, ruffles and tiny sewn-on mirrors and ribbons. Long billowing skirts and loosely cut but elegant knitwear abound. Accessories also tend to be quite formal and elegant. There's a range of clothes for the more dress-conscious child which is, again, quite heavy on ribbons and ornamentation. Monsoon are also responsible for the perfume of the same name - you can buy it in the stores. Review © 2007, Wcities |
