Selfridges//Oxford Street, London


Selfridges has unveiled yet another series of windows - Project Ocean - that portrays the effect consumerism has on the ocean. The importance of protecting our sea's and its creatures couldn't be stressed enough and its great that Selfridges is taking on such a project to get the message across. I am a great lover of the sea and it has been a big part of my life since I was a child, so I believe in and support this cause.

I thought this window display is really clever as it clearly states the importance of conservation through a service that people trust and rely on to keep their own 'treasures' safe. Although the photo isn't clear, the safety deposit box on the table contains a packet of fish which is a great contrast to the other boxes placed around it on the wall, that contain items that are considered to be more valuable today, such as gold, jewellery, money and so on.

Hugo Boss//L'Occitane//King's Road, London

Walking down the King's Road the message is clear...the Chelsea Flower Show is back in town and the shops are by no means trying to out shine it. They are all showing their support by showcasing some very flowery shop windows, reminding all that it's an annual event everyone should have penciled into their diaries.
Hugo Boss had flower beds placed in their windows, giving off a rather 'home-made-garden' feel.




L'Occitane was just one other store I managed take a photo of. They had their products placed within this brightly coloured bed of flowers.


The Chelsea Flower Show ends on the 28th May, so head on down there and check out the weird and wonderful of the 'green' world.
