So if you had £300+ to spend in Selfridges, what would you get?

I am very lucky to have vouchers for Selfridges and I don't want to waste them!
Any suggestions?

Designer jeans
Chanel ballet pumps

PhoebeMcPeePee · 02/10/2014 13:44

Decent pair of jeans, good quality well fitted white shirt & an amazing going out top.

peasandlove · 02/10/2014 13:45

Designer shoes and boots probably

peasandlove · 02/10/2014 13:45

Oops designer jeans not shoes

shadylane · 02/10/2014 13:48

Put it towards a beautiful coat
If you need one- really nice ones are so expensive. Otherwise jeans and shoes- that will be £300

A selection of really beautiful Christmas decorations that will last your lifetime and beyond.

Or a small but nice rug.

shouldn't be in style'n'beauty

Actually yes a beautiful coat will last far longer than jeans/tops. I was given a classic black wool (wraparound belted) jaeger coat about 8 years ago & it still looks amazing.

Designer jeans are getting a few votes!

I have lots of pairs of boots (and jeans, though not designer!), but maybe another pair wouldn't go amiss!

I did think about a coat, but I already have a few, including one which is very nice!

A good, well cut blazer.

bigTillyMint · 02/10/2014 14:43

Ooh, I haven't got a blazer...

I'd save them for the sales as selfridges are very generous with reductions. Fab handbags, half price beauty on the first day, designer jeans for under £50 a week later if you hold your nerve for further reductions.

Jo Malone perfume
Coffee pods for my nespresso machines
Pashmina

MrsDavidBowie · 02/10/2014 19:01

Goldsign jeans £265
A couple of lipsticks

bigTillyMint · 02/10/2014 19:05

mysteryfairy, you are a woman after my own heartWink

I don't think I could ever pay £265 for a pair of jeansShock

It entirely depends on your situation.
Clothes for you? A splurge on a nice bag? An evening outfit? Jeans? Or a few Christmas presents?

Treat a friend to a boozy lunch {flutters eyelashes}

A Vivienne Westwood dress, of course!

santamarianovella · 02/10/2014 19:47

I would get marant dicker boots, or a pair of flats from Chanel or maybe a nice scarf, new wallet?

Or I would keep hold on to the vouchers, till there is a sale going on, and get one or two really great items,

MsAspreyDiamonds · 02/10/2014 19:48

Book a personal stylist session, see what they suggest & hold out for the sales for the items that you like.

MrsDavidBowie · 02/10/2014 19:49

They are gorgeous. I've had mine three years and they are immaculate. Cost per wear....

Bluebell79 · 02/10/2014 19:52

Never been to selfridges but if I had that kind of money to spend, I would buy a Michael kors bag, nice watch, leather gloves, beautiful scarf, some nice makeup and clarins skin care.

mooth · 02/10/2014 20:47

Not jeans, for God's sake.

Boots, or a handbag.

AmberNectarine · 03/10/2014 07:35

Wait for the sales - Selfridges are the best discounters - most things will be 50% discounted at least.
