Spring has sprung at Primark and it looks a lot like the 1970s. Some of the items are in stores now, but they’ll be rolled out through April, so shoppers will have to visit often to nab all the fun styles.
Primark (pree-mark) is a popular clothing retailer for the budget-conscious. The company has stores in the UK, Spain and the Netherlands. Regrettably, they don’t have outlets in North America and they don’t sell online. Those sad facts don’t detract from the really groovy designs they’re offering this spring.
It so happens that I have great affection for the current offerings. I’m sure lots of women wish they’d sell online!
