Soignee

Interesting little place, gifts from the budget conscious to the more frivolous of purchases. To be honest, I was expecting something a little more on the different side of usual when I walked in, the name screamed to me that it would be interesting, and whilst it wasn’t boring, it just wasn’t different to many other jewellery shops in the area, lots of interesting things with silver, Mexican silver bracelets were gorgeously crafted, Soignee has stepped on board with the charm bracelet trend and there are some lovely glass beads and charm stoppers to purchase as small gifts, in addition to the other jewellery incorporating some of the more interesting semi-​precious gem stones such as blue agate and blue lapis, rose quartz and turquoise.
In addition to jewellery there’s some interesting accessories here too, including a collection of evening bags, clutches and handbags which adorn a full wall, and are likely to make girly girls get giddy over the prospect. There’s also some charms, photo frames, scarves, gloves, cards and gift wrap, which are all beautiful in their own sweet way.
As Rachael and Susan said, the staff is where Soignee comes in to it’s own, super helpful and friendly without being ridiculously pushy and commission driven. For clueless husbands and boyfriends, and sons, a place like Soignee is a lifesaver, IF you’re in the market for what they have to offer. Worty of a pop in.

I quite enjoyed looking in here, as a lover of accessories, especially rings, this was just one of those places I HAD to visit.
If you’re like me and love trying on rings and necklaces and picking out special pieces, then this is the place for you. As the above review states, the staff are extremely friendly and polite and don’t seem to have that snobbish feel about them that many upmarket jewellery retail assistants have.

As an upmarket jewellery and accessories shops, Soignee doesn’t have much to distinguish it from the countless other stores selling similar goods across Leeds. What makes it worth mentioning though is the friendliness and helpfulness of its staff, whose non-​pushy manner would make this an ideal place for unsure husbands and boyfriends looking to get something special for the lady in their life. When I visited the assistant was helping a man choose a necklace and she was amazingly thorough in her approach, asking him what colours and styles she liked before selecting some items that were by no means the most expensive in the shop. For those of us who aren’t panicked present buyers, there’s also a nice selection of brooches and mixed medium jewellery on display here, as well as some beautiful bags and scarves, making it a good place to pick up the finishing touches to an outfit. Prices range from cheap and cheerful pieces at under £10 to budget blowers at over £200, but seemingly regular sales mean you can almost always pick up a good deal.
