Next To Nothing

My favorite little clothing boutique in the covered market! I make sure to stop in whenever I’m traveling to Oxford. Cute and comfy Italian tops. I never walk away without buying something!

In the Oxford Westgate centre right at the top end. In the old C&A store if you can remember that far back
This shop is really strangely laid out! It has large doors right across the front and then a separate door with another shop name above. BUT it’s the same shop! Weird.
I find most of the clothes tatty and very old fashioned, not just last years Next clearance stock but more like 10 year old stock

The name might sound like an underwear shop, but it’s actually a brilliant little clothes shop nestled in the Covered Market. I discovered it while looking for a ‘Cheer Up Goth’ t-​shirt (still not found one!) and was entertained by looking at the funny t-​shirts. I don’t think I’d wear many of them, but I’ve got a couple of friends who thrive on that sort of display of wit. I’m more interested in the Camden market, hippie-​ish bags, colourful wall decorations and accessories. It’s not too expensive, at around £16.50 for a t-​shirt, and it’s well worth popping in if you’re buying a present for someone who’s into that sort of thing.
Top tip: try and go during the week as it gets very crowded on Saturdays.

Like others, I enjoy reading the quirky T-​shirt slogans in the window, and Next to Nothing is a fun place to browse for gifts and ‘ethnic’ clothing. They stock a few items of Adini clothing, which I like. As with many units in the Covered Market, there isn’t much room to move, and it doesn’t take many customers for it to feel crowded, but it’s a great little shop and worth a visit.

This is an excellent place to pick up individual, quirky or just plain classic clothing. Funny tshirts, scarves, wonderful summer clothing, and a fun friendly atmosphere make it a great place to browse. You’re sure to pick up something tempting, as well, usually at a very reasonable price.

Situated next to the Jewellery shop Nothing, on entry you are greeted with a wall full of novelty T-​shirts, and I keep promising myself to get the «Staff» one for a giggle!
Rails full of dresses and tops, with the walls covered in arabian scarves and retro bags
Plus stacks of novelty gifts including beaded door curtains, jumbo plastic rings, and badges!
Be sure to pop in around winter time to see their pashminas which make great Christmas presents.
