I love reading magazines but it’s always fun to spot one on the shelf that you’ve worked on. I like going to Selfridges for magazines – they seem to have a good selection and they carry Phoenix! We’re already busy calling in and preparing shoots for our next issue!

I always look forward to seeing Selfridges’ window displays. This month they use colourful wigs and garlands of flowers. It’s quite whimsical, with butterflys, bluebells and toad stools.

So Christmas is upon us, the red Starbucks cups are gracing chilly hands, the tills are ringing with lavish present buying and tonight we even had carol singers at the door (boys wearing hoodies with their hands cupped, Oliver style – aww how lovely).
Today was the first day I actually felt a little bit of festive cheer; I watched a cheesy Christmas film, I looked in awe at my sister’s Christmas tree and I finally started to think about what I had to buy. Ahhh lots to do in a short amount of time, I’m beginning to feel nervous.
Present buying is tricky when you love shopping (for yourself) as I can’t get past looking for presents for me. Plus I never seem to know what to buy people, especially the ones that appear to have everything already. I love getting people surprises rather than presents they know about and most of all I have to think about the pennies, what with this darned recession.
I think Selfridges will be my saving grace this Christmas, it’s like Toys ‘R’ us for grown ups. I will also be hitting Marc by Marc for some last minute cheap designer goodies. I think Urban Outfitters is great for some cool home presents and I don’t think you can go wrong with a scented candle from Jo Malone.
As I frantically scour online for possible presents I have discovered something so utterly fabulous words can not explain. I introduce to you the limited edition Christian Louboutin for Barbie ‘Cat Burglar’ doll, which comes with three extra pairs of mini Louboutin shoes – each with a box and shoe bag. It’s £100 and is available on www.netaporter.com. Think this could be the perfect present for that friend in your life that just has everything.
So everyone, I wish you all the best of luck with your Christmas shopping and please don’t tell me you’ve finished yours already as I may just go into meltdown.
xoxo

Who can resist the month-long celebrations at Selfridges? I love the Selfridgettes wearing a hot little Giles Decon dress in Pantone 109 made especially to mark Selfridges’ 100 years.
There is everything from Gay Bingo to Fashion Saturdays and the Sunday Cabaret!
Louis Vuitton has gifted British department store
Selfridges with a very special birthday surprise. It’s this cake trunk, a miniature version of their legendary trunk designed especially for transporting birthday cake.
The unique one-of-a-kind piece was handmade in Louis Vuitton’s Asnieres factory. The exterior sports the famous brown on tan Louis Vuitton logo, while the interior is lined in yellow fabric as a tribute to the high-end department store.
The trunk is to be auctioned off for charity with the bid starting with a reserve of £2,500.
Lots of brands have designed something special to celebrate Selfridges’ bithday from Christian Louboutin peep toe shoes to a Dualit’s toaster! Smartphone manufacturer BlackBerry has even deigned ten Selfridges yellow BlackBerry Bolds with redesigned number keys. The handsets will be individually numbered one to ten, and will sell for for £1,000 each!

One of the best things about London is how creative and inspiring it is. I love Selfridges‘ windows.The February windows are great – a Greco-Roman feel in white with metallic accents and paper cutouts.
Selfridges’ windows are seen by about 80,000 people every day!
