PLEASE READ THE RULES & INFORMATION BELOW BEFORE JOINING!


[info]thehighstreet is a UK-based fashion and shopping community. We decided to create this community after realising that most of the fashion communities on Livejournal are US-orientated. This is a place for all UK fashion addicts (both girls and boys!) to come together and talk about shopping, discuss UK fashion magazines, and post pictures of your clothes & accessories (shoes, bags, jewellery & the like). Anything is welcome - from designer outfits to charity shop finds, from online boutiques to £1 bargains - it doesn't necessarily have to be from a 'high street' shop, just as long as it was bought within the UK!

Join our new sister community [info]off_highstreet - the place for all your fashion & shopping-related questions, discount codes and 'off topic' discussion!

    What should I post here?
  • Intros - introduce yourself, your style and the things you love (and make it interesting!)

  • What you wore today and what you've bought recently

  • Your clothes and accessories wishlists

  • What does everyone think of... (item of clothing/outfit)-type posts

  • Fashion discussion/debate posts - for example:
    - Which is the better fashion magazine; Vogue or Elle?
    - What's everyone's opinions of high-waisted jeans?
    - What are your favourite spring/summer trends?
    - What item of clothing couldn't you live without?
    What shouldn't I post here? (Go to [info]off_highstreet instead!)
  • Discount codes - if you're asking for or providing a discount code and nothing else, your post definitely belongs over there.

  • General/vague questions - for example:
    - Where can I get something that looks like/to go with _____?
    - Where on the high street/online can I buy a _____?
    - What should I wear to a university interview?
    - Does (insert shop name here) accept returns without a receipt?
    - Can anyone recommend a good mascara?

  • Non-fashion questions - such as mobile phone/camera advice, beauty and hair tips, jobs, travel, health, music, relationships... and so on.

  • As a basic guideline, if there's anything you're not sure about, or you think might be slightly 'off-topic' here, it should be posted in [info]off_highstreet. There's no such thing as 'off-topic' over there, so feel free to post about absolutely anything you want!
    What can't I post?
  • Buying and selling posts are not allowed in either community - this includes direct selling, advertising your eBay auctions, selling journals, asking other members to buy something for you or if they have a particular item for sale, offering to buy something for them, etc.

  • The same goes for advertising posts of any kind. This isn't a place to promote other communities or anything else.

  • Any posts that break the rules will be deleted immediately. If you keep breaking the rules, or it seems like you're spamming one of the communities, you'll be banned.
    Other stuff...
  • Please don't cross-post the same thing to both communities.

  • If you're posting a lot of pictures, or very big pictures, please use an lj-cut.

  • Non-UK residents, please note: you may join, post comments and watch, but any posts you make must be related to UK shops, fashion and so on. You can only post items that were either bought within the UK or are available to UK residents (eg: from international websites that ship to the UK). Any posts that break these rules will be deleted.

Looking in London? Searching in Southampton? Rummaging in Reading?

If you're off shopping somewhere and wondering where the best places to shop in that particular town or city are - then please check the memories before posting!
