2014 Christmas windows at Harrods: Welcome to the Land of Make Believe












Stella McCartney, Alexander McQueen and Matthew Williamson are just a few of the big brand names you'll discover while walking through Knightsbridge and peering into the Christmas windows at Harrods this year. Snow globes, teddy bears, tiny mice with fancy costumes and so much more await you as you discover The Land of Make Believe. However, should you not be able to make it into Harrods in London, I thought it was time for the annual pilgrimage to bring the windows to you. Here they are, in all their finery, from those tiny little mice to massive puppets dressed in dreamlike dresses. They are truly stunning in person, so if you can visit you really should. Plus, in my personal opinion the Santa at Harrods is always the best and a visit to Santa's Grotto in store is an experience not to be missed. Merry Christmas, all!
