A couple of weeks ago I headed down to London to a blogger event held by the lovely people over at Dolce Gusto and it was an absolutely amazing evening! I've been lucky enough to receive a Dolce Gusto Coffee Machine and I haven't stopped using it! In my house we're really big coffee drinkers and the Dolce Gusto machines are amazing! We took part in this amazing workshop where you learnt the art of calligraphy but with coffee which was really fun and relaxing! We also had lots of yummy food and I caught up with some of my fave bloggers which was so nice!
Here's my attempt of a selfie trying to get my outfit in from the event! I wore my favourite leather look jacket at the moment from Boohoo with a white cami and my new ripped jeans from Topshop with a pair of chelsea boots! This cami top is a style staple of mine at the moment! You can pick one up for just £12 in the sale here and currently for London Fashion Week you can get free delivery on your order with the code 'LFWTREAT'!
Thanks to Dolce Gusto for an amazing event! Do you like coffee? Are you a Dolce Gusto fan?
A couple of weeks ago I headed off to London again! It was for the Next Autumn/Winter New In event which was held at The Hamyard Hotel (which is near Piccadilly Circus). I love heading down to London for events related to Next. They have the best social media team which make the events even more fun! I was lucky enough to bring my cousin along with me (he loves coming to events with me!) and it's always so nice seeing him as he lives so close to London and I live so far away! We headed to the hotel and it was absolutely beautiful. There was so many gorgeous clothes to see and so much yummy food to eat and yummy cocktails to drink! I caught up with lots of lovely fellow bloggers which was so nice! I think as soon as you catch up with other bloggers at events time goes WAY to fast. I loved seeing the Next girls too and it's always so nice chatting to them!
I wore this outfit for the event with a leather jacket as it was a sunny but not so warm day! They had an amazing illustrator at the event which illustrated my outfit and I can't wait to hang this illustration on my wall!
Are you a fan of Next? What clothes have you got your eye on this Autumn/Winter?
Yesterday I went down to London again! I love trips to London as they're always packed full of things for me to do. Firstly I met up with one of my best friends from when I was at University Rachel (you should all go check her out cause she's a babe!) and we caught up and headed off to the River Island High Summer Press Day! We were in for a treat because everything in River Island at the moment is so pretty! There was so much colour at the press day so of the prints of this seasons collection were amazing! There's so many gorgeous items which will help kit any girl out with their summer wardrobe! Kimonos were everywhere and there was lots of embellishment too! There was plenty of neon items to be seen and lots of turquoise blue items too! I wish I was seeing lots of sunshine this summer so I would have a valid excuse to buy it all! We then had some yummy pimms to get us in the summery mood! I had to take a photo of these suit & shirt combo's. I thought they were really cool and love how bright colours is a trend for menswear this summer! The accessories at the press day were amazing! I think everyone fell in love with the fluffy heels! Me and Rachel then went to meet my cousin and we went to a party for new shopping platform Grabble! I love the whole concept of Grabble because I'm always making wishlists of items online which I want! It was such an amazing event and so many bloggers were there and it was so lovely to catch up with them! We also were treated to a special acoustic set from Andy Jordan from Made in Chelsea! He was so good live I was quite surprised! He was really nice and friendly when I spoke to him too. He told me he loved my shoes and I turned to jelly and replied with they are from 'the internet' I was like what is my life?! Here's the photo evidence with Andy Jordan! Moments after the shoe incident haha! In the photo I'm with my cousin and my friend Rachel. During my trip I was also giving my new gadget from Futurocks(*) out! I was lucky enough to be sent this about a week ago and started using it last night! It works so simply you just charge it up via your computer and when the red light goes off it's fully charged and you can keep it in your handbag for on the go as it's so small! It's only £10 too and it recharged my phone to 100% while I was in London yesterday!
If there's one thing about blogging I really love doing and that's going down to London for fashion events. Fashion events I really love going to are Next fashion events! The PR/Social Media team at Next are so lovely and they put on the best blogging events!
So last Wednesday I headed down to London and met up with Em and we headed to the Soho Hotel (which is absolutely gorgeous by the way) for the Next event! One thing that's always amazing about Next events is that they're rammed full of lovely bloggers. It was so nice to catch up with Lyzi, Paula, Tara, Steph, Jazz, Kristabel and Lucy! The event was held in the most gorgeous suite. The food was amazing and the cocktails & mocktails were just far too good! I loved these little tiger statues. How cool would one of these look in your house?! The clothes really didn't disappoint and the Next New In collection launches in stores in May. It was amazing to have such an early preview of the collection and next have some gorgeous treats in store for you this summer! Inside the suite there was the most amazingly HUGE bath tub and the only thing you wanted to do was jump inside and here's Jazmine inside of it! Me and Em also did a bath tub selfie haha which you can find on Instagram! Here's some more shots of the yummy food we had to eat! I loved having the salads, chips and the cute canapes! We then were treated to afternoon tea (can't beat scones, cream & jam!) and more yummy cocktails!
Thankyou to Next for such an amazing event! Can't wait for the next one!
