Personal Shopping at Phoenix House

Phoenix House has just launched a Personal Shopping service. The apartments have teamed up with Lizzie Edwards, the founder of “Babet” style consultancy, to offer guests a wardrobe overhaul, style consulting and shopping trip.

According to a recent survey conducted by Selfridges, London is now the Capital of designer bargains, thanks to the plunging pound, so we thought that now would be a good time to invest in hiring an expert so that guests can make the most of their shopping money. There also seems to be a trend against mindless shopping and towards spending money on quality pieces that will last, so a Personal Shopper can be very helpful.
