Department stores

Britain's department stores are recognised around the world for their quality and excellence. With floor after floor of high street and designer fashion, accessories, beauty and food halls, one-stop shopping couldn't be easier. Selfridges is one of Britain's most popular department stores - here are some shopping secrets to make your shopping trip even more fabulous:

Selfridges in style

Is it the dazzling window displays that draw you in from the streets? The heady mix of designer fragrances mingling in the air? Or the endless chic boutiques? It's hard to define exactly what it is, but there's definitely something seductive about Selfridges.

For the ultimate shopping experience, leave the crowds behind and shop like London's fashion elite in the Personal Shopping suite. Here in this tranquil grotto you'll be de-stressed with a hand massage or mini-facial as style experts trawl the store on your behalf and return with the wardrobe of your dreams. And the best bit? It's free.

But don't let your day of indulgence end there. When you emerge from the suite laden with those famous yellow bags, head to the Accessories Hall. Above the gorgeous new Chanel boutique you'll find the Moët Champagne bar - liquid lunches don't get better than this.

Take your seat amongst the capital's most stylish shoppers, before perusing the extensive bar menu. For extra fashion points, don't miss the irresistible champagne and vodka cocktails designed by famous fashion folk such as Tracey Boyd, Julien MacDonald and Alice Temperley.

You can find Selfridges in 4 locations around Britain - London's Oxford Street, the Bullring in Birmingham, the Trafford Centre in Manchester and Exchange Square in Manchester.
