Cheap Jewellery and Xmas pressie ideas

trying_to_fly

First ca anyone tell me where in london central or south east I can go to buy cheap cute jewellery? Not real but costume. Like chunky wooden bracelets the boho look, the geek look etc
Top etc is waaaaaaaaay to expensive like 15 pounds for 6 bangles
But I wanted some very cheap stuff. I am looking on ebay too. But wondered if anyone kew places to go like markets small shops no one knows about. Very boho, funky, cute stuff. Like topshop stuff

And secondly.... What is a good present for a boy. Who's not just a friend... possible more. Maybe a hoodie. What's a hip designer thats not OTT priced. Like A and F price range. Thanks

1. Check out market stalls, places in Camden, Spitalfields tends to be quite pricey but has some amazing things and are worth the £10+ you pay for them IMO, also local street markets- nothing in the West End, more local to where you live, stuff will be chinzy and wont last that well but it will be cheap. You get what you pay for where things like that come in, sorry!

Etsy.com (US site but do have some UK sellers) and Notonthehighstreet.com are also worth looking through though not so easy to find what you want unless you know what your looking for.

TKMaxx is another option as is Claires Acessories (if you can find any...)

Boys? Well its really something personal if its "possibly more", babe we can't tell you what to buy there, it has to come from you and be personal to his tastes

re. Jewellery- could you buy some beads from ebay and some stretch magic (stretchy thread, also from ebay) and make your own? You just thread the beads on, knot the thread and secure the knot with a dab of clear nail varnish
