Last year, Harvey Nichols taught us to "turn our walk of shame into a walk of pride" with our favourite Christmas advert of the season, and much to our delight, the department store has upped its game for the 2012 version.
Every girl gets the "what if she's wearing the same dress as me?" fear before a party, but has anyone ever had a style stand-off with a colleague, like this one below? Watch the video to see how to battle it out, Harvey Nichols style. We'll be practising our laser-beam stare, just in case.
