London + Department Stores = Best Christmas Displays EVER

So today has been spent wading my way through text books in the hope to get lots of work done .
I am proud to say apart from getting distracted by Christmas song countdowns and the odd Christmas movie thrown I in I actually got quite a bit done ... Go Me !

After a productive day I am also feeling even more festive and to my delight I was at the point of festively exploding when I came across this article on the Mail Online  .
In a explosion of colour and all that sparkles it shows off the spectacular window displays of London's department stores in the wake of the festive season, and is enough to make anyone feel just a little bit Christmassy .
I hope you enjoy the photos and I hope they make you feel as magical as they did for me ... Its definitely made me want to pop along to London to see them for myself .
Well done to our capital city who once again have made me proud to be British .. 2013 you have a lot to live up to !!


I was in fact lucky enough to experience a very similar design as this yesterday when I visited the Harvey Nichols store in Manchester . This array of eye catching colours and designs of London's Harvey Nichols makes me squeal with excitement and gives me the urge to want to dress up in an assortment of colours and do a little dance.
Selfridges was another store I popped into yesterday to see what festive treats they had to offer , and despite opting for a more pastel palette inspired window display I still think it looks fabulous . For me their visual merchandising takes a more traditional approach playing on the more vintage theme that is so in at the moment .

This is another wonderfully designed window from Selfridges and with all of these festive displays minimalism was definitely not on anyones Christmas list this year . With so much to look its literally like being a small child again and if your anything like me it gives me butterflies in my tummy and makes me super excited.
Of course no christmas would be complete without a scrumptious gingerbread house and all thanks to Selfridges they have produced the biggest one I have ever seen ... Christmas hats off to you fabulous people.

My favourite by far however, has to be Harrods; their displays combines Disney Princesses with Christmassy elements and if you ask me it cant get any more magical. Their breathtaking designs have literally out shone them all with each Princess outfit being designed by top designers such as Roberto Cavalli and Valentino can it get any better ?

 Ralph Lauren allows you to step into the wintery world of Narniaesque theme,  its elegant display makes me feel like a snow queen and its icy white appearance makes me want to reach out for my fur coat (faux fur don't worry ) and prance around in a flurry of snow.

Hope this made even the scrooges out their just a little bit christmassy.

Love Liv xXx
