Selfridges Miniature Designer Shoe Cabinet Launch!

Hey all!

Have any of you been to Selfridges London recently? On my recent trip there, I of course had a look round at their Shoe Gallery to find on display the launch of their Christmas miniature shoe collection. In this limited edition range, you will find perfect miniature replicas by the designers themselves including Christian Louboutin, Vivienne Westwood, Fendi and Maison Martin Margiela. You can buy the shoes seperately as collectables or if have £18,000 at hand you can buy the limited edition Selfridges Mini Shoes Advent Calendar or Cabinet rather!

If I wasn't a student ie. had a disposable income I would think about having this as a collectable. How great of a conversation starter would that be. See the shoes for yourself! These are all available to buy via Selfridges.com and in-store, how cute are they!?

Remember, these are MINI! Maybe even true to size as in this photo...
My favourite is this miniature version of the Melissa - check it out!

What shocked me is that they are selling that for only £5 compared to the others which retail at over £200. Christian Louboutin however, even made a miniature Barbie shoe set exclusively for Selfridges for only £60! I definitely wouldn't mind this for Christmas.

I don't usually collect but I was really drawn to collecting all of these. Especially as a lot of them were quite affordable. What do you guys think? If you have a chance to check this out at their Shoe Gallery definitely do! Especially if you are a shoe lover like me.

H&M at Selfridges, London

Feeling spontaneous! Two posts in one day ;)

Attention all Londoners! H&M is officially coming into Selfridges at 9.30am on the 25th August 2011. It will the stock the very best of H&M with an "edited" selection of the latest key pieces for the season. Bit of a slight steal of Topshop's famous "edited" concept no?

This means that I won't have to filter through all their "cheap" items to get to the ones worth buying! You all know what I mean when I mean cheap, I'm sure. (Don't get me wrong, I <3 H&M).

So HOORAY!

Booties & Orgasm.

I can just picture myself in a few years when I have my own home with a walk-in wardrobe full of gorgeous heels. Or at least a girl can hope right?

I took a trip to Selfridges and was excited to see the NEW (yay!) Shoe Galleries open on the second floor.. it was like walking into a ladies heaven. Some of those shoes in the Shoe Galleries are exclusive to Selfridges as well which makes it even more amazing. And their seats aren't just your standard seats.. they have seats for you to try on your shoes in the style of cinema seats; so they open up but obviously they're the clean velvety luxurious version.

The shoe gallery is completed on the 16th September and I cannot wait.
You can explore the shoe galleries here :)

One thing I love is their variety of brands now that you didn't see so much before. I'm seeing a lot of new shoe brands there now like Opening Ceremony from the US.

Check these charm suede brown booties from Opening Ceremony!

I also discovered another new brand which really inspired me... called Giuseppe Zanotti, an Italian designer.
I love my Italian designers.

Black suede mid-calf boot; £650 

Electric blue suede ankle boot; £475

These are just a few amazing pairs I found! There are so much more.. especially their booties.
I'm aware that sounds silly. But they called it booties so that's what I'm going to call them!

Which ones do you prefer?

On another note, I bought these treggings from Topshop for £35! Great quality and SO comfortable.. just wow. And they fit so tightly.. grr :) 

And that's pretty much it for now :)
