Shopping Heaven: In All Her Finery

Whilst Domestic Sluttery HQ may be London-based, we do of course realise that not all our lovely readers are located in this neck of the woods. Which is why this edition of Shopping Heaven is our first to spotlight a beautous boutique outside of the Big Smoke.

In All Her Finery in Manchester was first and foremost a burlesque accessories boutique when it opened last year. Since then, glamorous manager Fiona Stott has expanded their range to include a myriad of gorgeous curios, jewellery and homewares. There's jewellery from Domestic Sluttery favourites Tatty Devine and Rings Eclectic, along with vintage-sourced pieces made by Fiona herself: "Although I got into it by accident when a customer asked me to design her wedding jewellery, the range is doing really well. I never make more than ten of each piece, and hunt around for vintage charms to use so each piece is quirky and tells a story."

As well as enough glitter and trinkets to keep entire flocks of magpies in ecstasy, In All Her Finery also stocks all the essentials for a perfectly indulgent and decadent boudoir, including delicious Rococo chocolates, Vivienne Westwood perfumes and sexily-packaged toiletries from Figs & Rouge.

And if all this sounds so overwhemingly wonderful that you're not sure where to start, I'd advise co-ordinating your first visit with one of Fiona's monthly open nights, at which customers get free cake, Cava and massages, as well as special offers and sneak peeks at new products. Book me in for one of those next time I'm in the North, please!
