It is our final week in Selfridges!

If you haven't been yet (shame on you), then you can find us in the Selfridges Lounge on the 4th floor sandwiched between Gucci Kids and Dior Kids - so boujie!!

As you can imagine it is totally surreal being in Selfridges but incredible at the same time. We wanted to take you on a whistle stop tour of some of our favourite parts of Selfridges so when you come to visit you can make the most out of your trip to one of the most iconic retailers in the world.

You're here 👋 first and foremost take the lift to the 4th floor and come and drop your items into the swap shop! Don't forget to book your tickets and carefully read the T&Cs, this is a premium swap shop and we've had brands dropped such as Ganni, Gucci, Self Portrait, Balenciaga, Stussy, Adidas, Stella McCartney, Versace, Vintage and many more. Its amazing!!

Once you've dropped at check in you can browse the rails, try on pieces in our changing room and take a moment in the chill out area. Haven't found your new obsession then lets take a stroll across the floors of Selfridges .

Hungry? Just across from the swap shop you have Pizza Pilgrams and Din Tai Fung which do the most incredible Xiao Long Bao dumplings, famous across the world. These soupy dumplings are unctuous and delicious. Or fancy an instagrammable lunch then check out the El&n Cafe with it's pink walls, açai bowls, Turkish eggs and gorgeous cakes. Coooorrrr I'm stuffed!

If like us you try to avoid buying new fashion then skip a few floors to the ReSelfridges area on the Lower Ground. Worn Again is part of Reselfridges, a season of shopping, swapping, repairing, upcycling and trading. Here you can sell your pre-loved designer bags and declutter your wardrobe whilst earning Selfridges credits to spend in store or online. Plus, you can book in with the repairs experts who are here to make your most-loved pieces as good as new.

We've been working with the lovely Vintage Threads who specialise in a combination of old school sportswear and 80s & 90s designer pieces, showcasing items from a wide range of brands, including Nike, Ralph Lauren, Burberry, Fendi, YSL, Prada, Gucci and many many more. They have been authenticating product coming into our swap and the team is honestly some of the nicest, funniest people we have worked with so well done Charlie and Freddie for hiring the best. You can find their concession on the 3rd floor, just get your blinkers on.

Next stop: beauty! Selfridges has it all but we specifically loved the Beauty Concierge where you can book earth conscious treatments, beauty mag makeover and even become a skincare guru! Feeling fresher already.

That's me done... back up to the swap shop to check the ever changing stock. That's the beauty of a swap shop with people dropping and swapping all the time you never know when the next gem will turn up.
