Start the new year with a refreshed outlook…from healthy eating and ditching the booze, to must have products for 2025 as well as where to go for some TLC – Oxford Street is here to help you make the most of 2025!
Healthy eating
January is the month of Veganuary, so why not challenge yourself to avoid animal products for an entire month. It is now easier to take part in this challenge, with the amount of vegan alternatives available in both the supermarkets as well as in restaurants taking the stress out of avoiding meat and dairy. Head to Market Halls for street food options that are delicious and planet-friendly – we love the mushroom tacos from DF Tacos! Amalfi Ristorante offers authentic Italian food and has a delicious vegan pizza on the menu featuring a roasted red pepper base topped with more veggies, rocket and extra virgin olive oil – yum!
For healthy eating on-the-go, M&S has just launched a new range designed to boost your brain power. With 13 products to explore, try the Brain Ball, a fruity snack filled with almond butter and coated in raspberry powder – it’s high in iron, zinc and vitamin B12 and provides at least 30% of the recommended daily intake of these essential brain-health nutrients in one go.
Try Dry January
With more non-alcoholic options on the market, why not give Dry January a go? Grab a group of mates together and take on our bar crawl without the hangover. Start off at the stylish Berners Tavern, a grand dining room with pictures adorning the walls, and sip on a Seedlip ‘gin & tonic’. Next up is Aqua Kyoto a modern Asian restaurant that offers delicious sushi alongside expertly made drinks. The bar staff here take mocktails seriously, and we highly recommend the ‘Mount Fuji’, a mix of spicy and sharp flavours with padron pepper, lime and grapefruit. Wrap up your day out with mocktails and art at FRAMELESS. Every Friday and Saturday throughout January, FRAMELESS are offering complimentary mocktails from Spencer Matthew’s non-alcoholic drinks company, CleanCo. Free on Friday 24th? Attend a mocktail masterclass with Spencer himself and learn how to shake up iconic Clean Cocktails – followed by a roam around the interactive art galleries!
Must have products for the start of 2025
As you plan your year ahead, make life easier with products that are designed to help you. From diary planners, calendars, stationary and so much more swing by Flying Tiger Copenhagen to discover their New Year, New Beginnings collection which has all of your new bits and bobs to keep you organised and motivated in January and beyond.
Holland & Barrett now have two shops open on Oxford Street to fulfil all of your wellbeing needs. Stock up on winter essentials such as vitamins and supplements, healthy snacks as well as skincare to help your skin survive the cold weather. Throughout January, until the 17th, head in store and receive a 20% off voucher to shop at the two new locations and on the 10th and 11th of January the first 100 customers spending over £20 will receive a wellness reset gift bag (worth over £30) – ideal for a healthy start to 2025. At midday, the first 5o customers to arrive at the stores will have the chance of winning a £175 limited edition goodie bag, full of Holland & Barrett’s latest trending products!
Find calm & much needed TLC
If you’re after some moments of calm and peace, then add these spots to your list. For an hour or two of peace, head to Moco Museum and explore their collection of modern art masterpieces from top artists such as Banksy, Jeff Koons and so much more…don’t miss the digital art space in the basement!
Selfridges offer plenty of pampering options including the viral facial sensation, FaceGym. Sit back and relax and receive a workout for your face which will leave you feeling (and looking) rejuvenated. For naturally formulated products then stop by Lush. Treat yourself to a face mask, bath bomb or a new shampoo. A visit to their spa is guaranteed to offer TLC. We love The Comforter, a 60 minute treatment with a hot chocolate body scrub that will wipe away all your worries and leave you with silky smooth skin thanks to the rose serum massage.
