Who does not want to get to know the coolest places in a city? All the travel guides include a visit to <strong>Harrods<\/strong> in the \u201cTo-do section\u201d. But what about Selfridges?<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-bottom: 15px;\">One of my favourite routes when I went shopping in London was just to <strong>cross Carnaby St<\/strong>, get to <strong>Nike Town<\/strong> and then from there to Seldfridges. The building has an <strong>impressive fa\u00e7ade from 1909<\/strong>. Warning: you cannot always buy what you want. A reminder before crossing the doors.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-bottom: 15px;\">The decoration of the shop windows is unbelievable. They hold contests where artists have the opportunity to show their designs and creations. I am not exagerating. Seldfridges deserves these words. Its founder wanted the customer to go shopping with a smile in their face and, trust me, his vision still prevails. On the first floor, you can find <strong>brands such as Gucci, Louis Vuitton, Chanel<\/strong> and so on. I keep walking although the Food Hall sign deserves a visit (mental note for later).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-bottom: 15px;\">I get directly to the <strong>urban floor<\/strong> where you can finds brands like <strong>Commes de Gar\u00e7ons, Evisu, Diesel, Paul Smith, Fred Perry, Bjorn Borg o Levi\u00b4s vintage<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-bottom: 15px;\">Seldfridges has the honor to have the world largest shoe shop with <strong>more than 3200 models<\/strong>. The <a href=\"https:\/\/footdistrict.com\/en\/sneakers\/\"><strong>sneaker lovers<\/strong><\/a> also have their place, they haven\u2019t forgotten us. I buy something and then I get to Food Hall where I buy a big bag of Jelly Beans. There are more than 50 different flavours. Oh, last tip; if you like the antique Coke bottles, they always have a unique design. If you are in London, Seldfridges deserves a visit.<\/p>\n<p><div id=\"attachment_65002\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" width=\"592\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-65002\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.footdistrict.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/magefan\/selfridges-1.jpg\" alt=\"selfridges\" width=\"592\" height=\"383\" \/> <em>Shopping in the Best Department Store in the World: Selfridges.<\/em><\/div><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I don\u2019t label it that way,it was awarded as the Best Department Store in the World in the Global Department Store Summit 2012.
