Christmas Windows 2012!

If there's one thing I love, it's a ruddy good Christmas Window Display - I've taken to twitter (@strawberry_dani) and been trawling the streets of London Town to find the very best of the Christmas Windows of 2012.

They are creative, fun to look at, and speak volumes about the store behind them. And it's pretty much the best chance a VM would get to really get those creative juices flowing - here are some of my favourites so far this year.

Selfridges. A bit out of character for the usual Selfridges Christmas Windows, they've taken inspiration from Bruce Webber's 'Not Your Usual Christmas'. Hundreds of wrapped presents, and an air of magic, Selfridges haven't dropped the bar for this years display. Love it and give it a 6/10!

Harrods. Words cannot describe how much I adore Harrods' Disney Couture themed displays. Featuring classic Disney Princesses' dressed in the most lavish of lavish gowns, this is a window that is sure to stop a passer-by in their tracks.

First up; Rapunzel wearing a beautiful Jenny Packham gown. Cinderella wears Versace, Snow White works Oscar de la Renta, Pocahontas rocks Roberto Cavalli, Aurora dazzles in Elie Saab, Jasmine shines in Escada, Tiana is a knock-out in Ralph & Russo, and last, but by no means least, Belle wears a jaw-dropping Valentino piece.

Shoes were shown off by Valentino, Versace, and of course, the Cinderella Slipper by Christian Louboutin *swooooooooon*

Some other faves...

Fortnum & Mason - Cabaret. Glitz, glamour and showtime! A really fun display!

Harvey Nics took inspiration from the Orient

Liberty takes inspiration this year from the Victorian era of the steam train; Queen Victoria's decadent saloon carriage in particular.Image

Jimmy Choo. Shiny baubles, and lots of them! This Bond Street shop window is enough to make any passerby stop and have a looksee!

Christian Louboutin. The red! The redddd! It's every girls dream - a Louboutree! Topped off with the classic Pigalle shoe, this tree is a foresty force to be reckoned with. Aaaah, the red!

Tiffany & Co. Romance at Christmastime; a great theme, bringing to life a decadent and lavish lifestyle. Each miniature scene brings to life a beautiful Tiffany's piece, surrounded by the most intricate and detailed New York setting - from the traditional Manhatten Brownstone, to a pimped out Tiffa-tree at the bottom of a sweeping staircase. Gorgeous.
