Happy 100th Anniversary, Selfridges!

For one afternoon, I spent a glorious few hours in Selfridges (in London) while my friends went to find food or something.
I tried on some Maison Martin Margiela, some Dior Homme sunglasses, molested a few weekender bags and tried on a ridiculous Y-3 hat.
The sales people were all super stylish and super nice. I was shocked at how extra accommodating with their customers. I had one guy talk to me for 20 minutes about pants. I loved it! My best shopping experience ever.
I walked out with a structured pair of steel blue slim trousers by Reiss. Slight sheen.
And a slim fit limited edition Burberry polo in a silk knit with an extra giant logo on the chest. I don’t think I’ve ever even worn that shirt but it’s such a beautiful. Sometimes I take it out and look at it. It’s just such a great jet black and the embroidery is so gothic but still sporty.
But the hottest accessory I got out of the excursion was the most yellow shopping bag I’ve ever seen. Even more yellow than Yellow Rat Bastard. Like a bolt of retail lightning.
To celebrate Selfridges’ centenary this May, the company has teamed up with a few brands to offer limited edition items in their signature Pantone 109…
Converse trainers, £75
Watch by Toywatch, £122
Levi’s jeans, £150
I want this and will kill to get it:
Polo shirt by Ralph Lauren, £65
These and other items (including a guitar!) are all available at Selfridges.
Happy 100 to my favourite store!
