Christmas lights up London
I went for a stroll around central London and Marylebone last night, and found that it's beginning to look a lot like Christmas. My vote for the most charming Christmas window? The vintage decoration display in the window at Content Beauty/Wellbeing (above). I don't know how store owner, Imelda Burke, managed to colour-co-ordinate so many beautiful vintage glass decorations, but she did a mighy fine job. So pretty.
I also really liked the sculptural magazine "tree" in the window at KJ's Laundry...
In terms of sheer scale and magnificence, Selfridges have surpassed themselves with a rather anti-credit crunch theme of "the more the merrier", featuring Santa in 19 different window installations.
Santa at the cinema...
Santa gets a beard trim...
Santa takes the Tube...
Santa does his laundry...
Santa goes to the disco...
Santa has a bubblebath...
Santa takes tea...
Santa goes shopping...
Santa eats sushi...
while Oxford Street goes twinkle, twinkle...
and St Christopher's Place goes sparkle, sparkle...
I LOVE this time of the year.
