It’s never too early to start searching for the best gifts for her, especially if you’re after presents that are meaningful and that she will cherish forever (or eat very quickly!). There’s nothing like shopping in real life and hand selecting a gift to make it that much more special, and you can do all that on Oxford Street. Whether the women in your life are into beauty, fashion, food or all the above, we’ve got you covered.
Discover plant based dining
If you’re looking to cut down your meat intake or go vegan altogether, it’s never been easier to find plant-based alternatives. Step inside Selfridges for incredible plant-based burgers from Brasserie of Light and vegan dumplings from Din Tai Fung. The ever-popular Willows on the Roof above John Lewis boasts breathtaking views of the city and offers vegetarian sharing plates bursting with flavour. For budget-friendly vegetarian options or a quick plant-based pick me up, check out Market Halls, Marugame Udon or Veggie Pret towards Soho.
Autumn is made for leafy wanders and central London’s picturesque parks and gardens don’t disappoint. Stroll through Brown Hart Gardens, Hanover Square, Cavendish Square and Soho Square, all within walking distance of Oxford Street. Meander towards Marble Arch and you’ll find Hyde Park, one of London’s eight royal parks within easy reach of Oxford Street. Pack a picnic, go boating on The Serpentine or simply take in the beauty of your surroundings.
Book an eco-friendly staycation
Hotels like BoTree, The London Edition and Treehouse London keep their carbon footprint low and enjoyment factor high. With sustainability at the heart of their design decisions, newly opened BoTree achieved an Excellent rating in the world’s leading environmental assessment method for buildings (BREEAM). At the London Edition all single-use plastic items have been replaced with eco-friendly alternatives like bamboo guest toothbrushes and cork coasters. Similarly, Treehouse London offers guests cruelty free, refillable toiletries and organic cotton sheets in all rooms, while their near zero-waste cocktails make the perfect nightcap before you turn in.
With bikes, buses, tubes and trains, getting to and from Oxford Street has never been easier. But have you considered making small changes to your journey to commute more consciously? For short-distance commutes, cycling or walking can drastically reduce individual carbon emissions. In fact, choosing a bike over a car just once a day can reduce your transportation-related emissions by 67%. No bike? No problem! Rent one from your nearest Santander docking station from only £1.65.
