If you love sparkly Christmas decorations, pink storefronts, candy-cane arches, luxury wreaths and the most Instagrammable corners of London, then welcome – you’re in the right place. Today I’m taking you on a magical festive walk through Belgravia, Sloane Square, Chelsea, Pavilion Road, Sloane Street and Knightsbridge, all wrapped up in twinkly lights and seasonal charm.

This is part of my Christmas in London series, so if you adore cosy cafes, beautiful decorations and dreamy London walks, make sure you check out the rest of my festive guides too.

Starting in Belgravia: Peggy Porschen & Elizabeth Street Magic

There’s no better place to begin a Christmas walk than Peggy Porschen Belgravia — and if you’ve been here before, you’ll know why. Their decor is always perfect, but this year the candy-cane pink theme is especially magical. Think winter foliage, candy stripes, pretty presents, and the sweetest festive cupcakes topped with gingerbread and candy canes.

Just across the road, TomTom Coffee House has the cutest pair of reindeer outside, and the Lime Tree Hotel, Bailey & Sage, Joe Loves, and Joanna Wood have all gone all-out with traditional wreaths, baubles, and festive windows. Belgravia really does Christmas so well.

A short wander away is Neill Strain Floral Couture, whose festive arch alone is worth the detour. If you love florals, this will be your heaven — I also have a full Mayfair video if you want more.

Sloane Square: Home of the Ralph Lauren Christmas Pop-Up

After Elizabeth Street, it’s a quick 10-minute walk to Sloane Square, where you’ll find classic restaurants dressed for the season and — the star of 2024 — the new Ralph’s Coffee holiday pop-up.

Think:

• a glossy red truck filled with Christmas trees

• steaming hot chocolates with marshmallows

• a holiday gift shop

• elegant green and orange decor

• a charity star-tree supporting Royal Marsden

It’s festive, it’s luxurious, and honestly… it’s gone TikTok viral for a reason. Expect queues — but I promise it’s worth it.

If you need to warm up afterwards, pop upstairs to the café inside Peter Jones for toasties and some of the best views over Sloane Square.

Duke of York Square: The Twelve Days of Christmas Trail

Just next door, Duke of York Square has transformed into a whimsical “Twelve Days of Christmas” display, complete with:

• Seven Swans a-Swimming

• Nine Ladies Dancing

• floral Christmas trees

• a corridor of blue and silver foliage

• the dreamy ballet-shoe-covered Christmas tree

My personal highlight is the white archway of roses, silver icicles and disco balls — so chic.

This year also marks the move of the Ever After Garden to Saatchi Gallery, where you can donate to Royal Marsden and dedicate an illuminated white rose to a loved one. I visit every year for Emma.

King’s Road: Sparkly Signs & Chic Storefronts

Kings Road is always beautiful at Christmas, with its iconic light-up sign and sparkling crowns. My must-sees this year are:

• The pastel oversized baubles at Anthropologie

• The giant red balloons at Jigsaw

• Festive gift shops full of mugs, knitwear, candles & homeware

If you love Christmas shopping, you’ll be very happy here.

11 Cadogan Gardens & Pavilion Road

Circling back towards Sloane Square, 11 Cadogan Gardens deserves a special shout-out. Their Christmas decor is elegant, glamorous and utterly “Cameron Diaz in The Holiday”.

From here, a wander up Pavilion Road gives a quieter, cosy London moment. The florists always bring their A-game, and Christmas is no exception.

Sloane Street: Chic, Understated Christmas Luxury

If Bond Street is the maximalist older sister, Sloane Street is the stylish, understated cousin. Picture:

• Christmas trees lining the entire street

• sparkling lights overhead

• festive windows from Chanel, Prada, Cartier, Toteme, Diptyque, Hackett and more

My favourite is Cartier, whose deep Christmas red storefront looks elegant and timeless.

Knightsbridge Finale: Harrods & A Hot Chocolate at The Lanesborough

Harrods may not have their iconic Dior wrap this year (a moment of silence), but they’re still filled with the best Christmas food, luxury gifts and plenty of sparkle inside.

Around the corner, Caffè Concerto, Mari Vanna, and even private clubs like Pavilion have leaned into glitzy, glamorous decor.

And to finish your walk?
A thick, luxurious hot chocolate at The Lanesborough – served in a silver teapot, no less. It’s the perfect cosy ending to your Christmas day out.
