Department Store James Selby

Hi, I'm just wondering if you have any part time work available and would be great if you could get back to me please. Thanks Lucy Whelan

My mum introduced me to this shop and I've liked it ever since. There's a variety of clothing items to choose from and they're really nice too.

Selby's is one of a small number of 'old-fashioned- department stores left outside central London.

At first glance it's a little bit scruffy and does not seem to have a lot going on, but the store is a lot bigger than it looks and houses several high street concessions including Topshop, Bennetton and Warehouse. They obviously have some good buyers on board, as I've also found some smaller indie labels I like stocked here on occasion. There are also a few beauty therapists on site offering eyebrow threading and shaping at a decent price.

As well as fashion, there's a really handy home section upstairs where you'll find everything you need to kit out a kitchen, plus a wide range of bedlinens including designer brands like Orla Kiely. There's also a Cafe Nero for when you get peckish.

The cookware sction has recently been improved greatly and has a fine selection of goodies, many of which match nearby argos on price.

one tip- check out the nearby nags head market for tuperware and poundstore like bargains, its only on the other side of the carpark :)

This is a really handy store, you really get a selection of every thing with Topshop, Warehouse, Miss Selfridge, Dorothy Perkins amonst others located in here. Perfect size to look around. Also have homeware and childrens section

Rather than going down to the big department stores such as Debenham in the west end, I prefer going to Selby James sometimes because I can buy my perfumes, make-up and top brand ladies fashion without the hassle of West. Its like the John Lewis of Holloway with even better customer satisfaction because I don’t have to have made weeks appointment before I can get my make up done. The store is only about two floors but has variety of things.

On first floor you will find Topshop, Dorothy Perkins, make-up, bags, shoes and other Top brands. On the top floor, the store has home ware including cookware and kids toys. The staffs give you their total attention and I can find the big make-up, perfume counters I need there. I love the fact that I don’t have to queue for anything and its ideal place to buy gifts and things for home.

Its worth visiting here sometimes, especially if Holloway is not far from you.
