Seven Dials Shopping Evening & Betty Magazine Launch Party!

For all of you, who missed Fifi Wilson’s shopping evening at the Covent Garden store last Thursday, here is a little re-cap!

As part of the Seven Dials Christmas Shopping Evening, Fifi Wilson offered a fabulous 20% off the new collection and some delish mince pies and sparkling prosecco! As if the evening wasn’t already glam enough, the lovely Betty Magazine celebrated their launch party at Fifi Wilson that evening too! Definitely an occasion to clink those glasses!

Even though she couldn’t be there in person to celebrate with us, one of our favorite designers, Elizabeth Lau, was there in spirit! Every customer that evening had the chance to win an adorable Lizzie Face Elizabeth Lau jumper! Hooray!

 

 

Although the evening was cold and very wet, I was so surprised when turning the corner into Monmouth Street, and delightedly seeing that the Seven Dials streets were decorated with pink sparkling lights and Christmas trees, reminding me of a Christmas Market I once went to in Nuernberg, Germany! (So beautiful!) There was even a random Santa Clause stood right out side Fifi Wilson wishing passers by a Merry Christmas! Awww!

Singing along to “Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree” and munching on mince pies, I definitely feel December has begun well! Here’s to hoping the Holiday Season will be jolly! Can you believe Christmas is just around the corner?? Where did the Summer go so fast? (At least thats what I keep thinking!)

Congratulations to Betty Magazine on their launch, the biggest Thank You ever to Elizabeth Lau for being her wonderful self , and to everyone who helped make the event the success it was!

We look forward to seeing you in either our Fifi Wilson Chelsea or Covent Garden or beloved Edinburgh store soon! Bring on the Christmas shopping!

 

Chelsea Fifi Boutique Open Sundays

Choose a job you love and you’ll never have to work a day in your life! Well, we feel like that at Fifi Wilson but sometimes you need just one day to chill out, forget about stock, merchandising, window displays, appointments…  you name it! and catch up on all those important little things like eating and sleeping.

I’m based at the Chelsea shop and although Clapham and Covent Garden are always open on Sundays, at Chelsea we’re very civilised and have the day off! Like all good things though it’s prone to change and does so every year when we reach December. It starts off with me not getting quite as many strokes, tickles, ear rubs, fondling and general adoration. The equilibrium suffers and the customers seem totally absorbed with what is in the shop rather than with what’s on the sofa. Moi – for the few of you who hadn’t noticed!

From then on it’s a downward spiral. The more rushing about and urgency I detect in everybody’s voices the more I know the Sunday opening is on it’s way. Well it’s come around once again and I’m in store for the next three Sundays! No more bed hopping in the morning, lounging with my bro and titbits all day long – no, back to the shop for a seven day week! Shouldn’t moan though there is a pay off! I start to notice the ear rubs return, everone relax becoming almost euphoric which all culminates in having a whole week of Sundays off in one go!

So it’s worth it and I’m well up to the Sunday challenge! My name’s not Elvis for nothing! The show must go on!
