2nd May 2014

Today it is the 150th anniversary of my all time favourite department store in the UK - John Lewis!! They always have excellent displays and this one is of a citrus lemon pleated dress along with a collection of birthday paper bags.

For anyone who is not in the UK, this store has branches around the country and all the staff are in fact 'partners' and once a year they receive a bonus based on the amount of profit that the shops have made over the year. The incentive is there to work hard and I have to say that the staff are extremely knowledgable, helpful and polite… did I mention it is my favourite British department store?

Happy Birthday John Lewis!!
Sounds like an excellent business! All the staff actually care! I love the dress - it would be all floaty!

@maggiemae It looked so elegant, unfortunately I think it would need someone as a size 8 to wear it… about half a person less than me!!

Really like the pov and colour here, Emma. I also like the sound of the way the store is run and its staff are treated.

I've been there and it's truly a great store. Found beautiful yarn for my knitting daughter. The saleswoman was so helpful.
