Christmas Comes Early 2o11 !

The annual Selfridges Christmas promotion "Christmas Comes Early" has arrived and this year it is bigger and better than ever. In previous years there have been restrictions which have somewhat hampered my efforts to take advantage of the 20% off discount, this year however is a totally different story. Apart from some concessions, mainly Louboutin, Chanel, Prada, Dior etc, all the other departments and brands are included. DvF and designers such as Herve Leger, Miu Miu, Roland Mouret and Alexander McQueen are taking part and have included new season styles as well.

This year I benefit from staff discount on top of the promotion which means there are extra savings to be had. I vowed to buy only things I need and items I would not usually get such good discounts on.

Here are some of the things I purchased in my Christmas Comes Early haul !!

Chanel "Chance" perfume. 4 Longchamp "Le Pliage" bags - Red, Chocolate and Navy medium with long handles and Black large with short handles. COS jumper with silk and button detail back.




MAC Holiday gift set - Eyeshadow duo, eyeliner, brush and mascara in make up case. MAC Holiday Viva Glam lipstick set - Lady Gaga lipstick in Nude and Pink and make up bag. Chanel Make up remover. MAC liquid eyeliner.




Alexander McQueen chiffon scarf with skull print in navy/gold.



Other items included bed linen set from Muji in an amazing soft jersey fabric. Ralph Lauren jumpers for Christmas gifts. DBF also bought me a pair of Louboutin's which are featured in an upcomning post about the Louboutin's that I have acquired in December.

Shoes from HK !

My parents have come back from a 4 week trip to Malaysia and Hong Kong. My Mum called me pretty much every day to ask me about shoes and gifts I wanted. To be honest, I don't really desire much from HK when I am not there - aside from replenishing my stock of Darlie toothpaste! However, she insisted she wanted to buy me shoes (as if I don't have enough already) and this is what she came back with.

Maud Frizon mini heel pumps in black patent with bow detail




Maud Frizon ballet pumps in 2 styles.






The quilted ballet pumps are really cute on and surprisingly comfortable. I actually find them more padded and comfortable than my Chanel pumps. The little heeled pumps are also comfortable and I think are really good for work as the heel is appropriate and easy.
