Discover British Independent Shops Online
Welcome to my shopping directory for independent shops, Love Our Shops UK.
Do you love shopping? Do you shop online? Would you like to find an easy and enjoyable way to browse the gorgeous, unique and often specialised small independent online shops?
We have the answer. Retail therapy blog and directory plus some me time thrown in.
Love Our Shops UK is an online directory of independent online shops. Plus a retail therapy and me time blog.
We are not talking big shops. But small shops with loads of personality and all unique. Many specialise and have amazing knowledge….they are experts. Quite often they design everything they sell themselves.
We are offering an easy way to find them. We are looking for them and featuring them in our “fabulous finds” blog. Plus creating an easy to use directory so you can browse lots of shops under one roof. Above all we are creating an enjoyable way to shop online.
There are literally thousands of UK based, small independent shops online. We are looking for them and featuring the good ones.
From delicious wholefoods to great running wear, wonderful journals to amazing handmade soaps, beautiful jewellery to cute baby wear, quality dog collars to unique gifts. And so much more!!
So that is my mission with Love our Shops UK. To help you find these shops, enjoy browsing them and easily shop with them. Plus keeping you all inspired and informed of new products, special offers, updates and competitions. Basically we want to share their loveliness.

Do you love to read? I read all the time. I read to learn, I read to be inspired, I read to relax. I read books and blogs, magazines and emails.
This fab quote by Joyce Carol Oates sums it up “Reading is the sole means by which we slip involuntarily, often helplessly, into another’s skin, another’s voice, another’s soul.”
Because of this I find so much to read online, so much I want to share, so much I want to blog about.
So not only is this website a shopping directory, it is also a blog – a place to read. Full of lifestyle articles, behind the scenes posts and running an online store tips. My blog is about things I learn, read, see, make, do and buy. It is about the gorgeous shops and their uniqueness. Plus for those running or aspiring to run an online shop, lots of tips about how to do it successfully.
The best way to see what I share on my blog, to not miss a special offer, new shop (I am discovering more every day), or what we are up to, is to subscribe to my emails. I will be sharing lots of loveliness (and some freebies).
If you like to share lovely places to be online, let all your friends know about us. Be the first to tell them about Love Our Shops UK, I am sure they will thank you for it.
We love being social so feel free to follow us, pin us, like us and communicate with us. We would love to hear from you.
I wish you lots of lovely moments in life.
