[Talk-GB] Laura Ashley - looking for tagging consensus

[Tony OSM]

Hi

I've been in several of their shops, have just looked at their website, 
and can see the tags below - -  I think that this is a lifestyle shop 
that sells all of those tagged bar fashion. Lifestyle tag  is only used 
5 times but that word occurs frequently on their website.

My 2nd choice is home-furnishing.

To me clothes are less important to this shop than historically was the 
case.
