It might still feel like summer right now but you know what’s coming? Christmas. Sure, it’s 107 days away, but it is coming. If you’re desperately counting down the days, head to Liberty where the store’s Christmas shop is officially open for business.
This year there are more than 1,200 decorations on sale, including classic Liberty baubles and a new selection of tree jewellery that reflects our lives in last 18 months, including working-from-home-inspired laptops and headphones, and designs featuring arts-and-crafts tools such as paintbrushes, sewing machines and knitting needles.
Every year, Liberty sells more than 150,000 baubles. Struggling to visualise what that many shiny trinkets looks like? According to the store, if you laid them down, they’d stretch for more than six miles, so there you go.
Look, it’s been a weird year and a half, so if you want to buy fancy baubles in September then why the hell not?
