Butler & Wilson

This store, and the one in Fulham Road, are a veritable Aladdin’s Cave
of unusual gifts, bright and shiny things and surprisingly inexpensive gifts. It takes some time wandering around seeing it all but you must be careful not to get carried away or you’ll end up buying some delightful but totally inconsequential thing you certainly don’t need. It’s not a place to browse in if you’re blood sugar’s low and you haven’t eaten — that’s for sure!)
The faux-​jewelled key rings make affordable gifts but there’s SO much. I personally love the quirky necklaces, jewelled minaudière’s and rings. Some of the personal accessories are a little ‘loud’ but there’s lots for every taste in these emporia. You’ve got to buy it then and there if you love it as there’s a brisk turnover.
By the way, Butler & Wilson sell on-​line and will ship to the U.S. and many other countries. Joy. It’s a rare store that has you smiling with interest and amusement when you enter. My fellow reviewers have said it all, really. It’s on a must-​see list every time I’m in London.

Move over Kimora, for those of you who don’t know, she is the queen of bling in New York, and by all means Butler & Wilson love the shiny stuff. I like it, they have such a vast assortment of products, from jewelry, to handbags, to fashion, that at times it’s overwhelming but it’s a fun shop nonetheless. Especially on a gray day you go in there and really remember that you cant take life to seriously. The prices are affordable and getting one piece of bling for your wardrobe might even change your mood. I did buy a really wicked brooch that when I got it I though…“ill never wear it” but you know what I do use it, and love it. So go ahead take the risk.

As the previous reviewer remarked, Butler and Wilson is a magpie’s natural home. A sparkly, bright, girly emporium of all things costume jewellery, which also stocks a diminutive range of clothing and a handful of bags and other accessories.
I personally find some of Butler and Wilson’s design a little hit and miss, some of their pieces a little garish. However I do confess to have my eye firmly on a rather fabulous pewter coloured Chunky Crystal Chain Link Bracelet reminiscent of Christopher Kane’s much coveted jewellery collection for Swarovski.
At £168 the bracelet may languish on my wish-​list for a while but then this is collectible, beautifully made costume jewellery and the January sales aren’t too far off.

Fabulous Aladdin’s cave of all things sparkly. Great for browsing and buying little pieces as gifts or for yourself once in a while, it’s a little spendy for some of the pieces.
Service is great and you can get items gift-​wrapped/​boxed easily.

This shop is like a dream come true for girls. It is definetly like a treasure chest with jewels, diamanté hair accesories and sequinned handbags. You may find the prices slightly high on some things but just look at the item you are buying and you will definetly see its worth that amount of money.

Butler and Wilson is a jaw dropping delight for any Magpie. The shop just off Oxford Street is an exotic treasure trove of beautiful accessories.
From vintage clothing and beaded purses to sparkling necklaces and bracelets, practically every kind of accessory imaginable can be found here encrusted with semi precious stones, glittering gems, beads and sequins.
Personally I find Butler and Wilson too overwhelming to ever buy anything from but it is rather spectacular and I love wondering around the shop all the same.

Butler & Wilson is a treasure chest for girls (and guys). With enough sparkle for the average princess, sunglasses in here are a must. Filled to the brim with costume jewellery and accessories, they is no dressing — up must have that you cannot find in here. from necklaces to tiaras, bangles to handbags. Reasonably priced and a great stop for presents for those in your life that have glitter in their veins

If you like diamanté costume jewellery with a retro feel you will find much to rave about at B and W. They make sparkly sparkly pieces and are particularly famed for their brooches, which come in witty and unusual designs such as parrots, parakeets, spiders and beetles. Everything looks authentically retro (1900 – 1940) so if you don’t want to rummage around the markets for that one-​off piece, you can find it here rapidissimo.
Pricey and not very a la mode (this is absolutely NOT bling) but undoubtedly the best in its own niche market.

This beautiful shop is a treat for the eyes in every way. Ok, maybe a little bit over the top as you may be blinded by all the sparkles. If you are on a very low budget, maybe this place is not for you, but still, it is nice just to have a long browse or chat with a very nice shopkeeper. there are some really beautiful pieces of jewelry and gorgeous sparkly dresses. If there is a party that you are preparing for, this place is perfect to pick out some lovely party pieces.
