Blogger's Love Fashion Week

Blogger's Love Fashion Week

I recently attended Blogger's Love Fashion Week which was held at The Penthouse, Leicester square.

Blogger's love host many Blogger events in London, but as I am stuck in the good old north, it's a bit of a trek normally, but I decided to attend this one as both a blogger and a brand.

The view, as you can see, was amazing. A fab vista of central London. To a norther who lives in the back of beyond and sees just a few tractors and sheep on the way to work, this impressed me.

We started the day off doing a "Blogger Challenge". This was basically each brand had their area to display their goods and bloggers visited freely to chat, perhaps try on goods and review products. As I had agreed to this pretty last minute, I didn't have the best spot as I was on the top floor in the corner, so it certainly didn't have same buzz as the lower floor. Also, as this was the first time I had gone to anything like this I wasn't really prepared. I hadn't brought a proper rail, so I had to "make do". I was a bit disappointed I must admit as I don't think it the presentation of it showed our ranges to their full potential. Anyway, like anything, I have learnt my lesson and I will be more prepared next time. It was nice to meet other bloggers. When people have something in common there is always a friendly vibe, like an un-said secret that everyone knows.

Goodie bags!

After this two hour event, I went downstairs and treated myself to a yummy blogger cocktail. I met with the blogger stylist for the evening Lauren who is based in London. She has a fab little blog, check it out. She has also just set up her own social media company. 

It was then onto the fashion show in the evening. I was displaying my SS14 range along with a couple of other brands. While I helped dress the models, Lauren stayed on the front line and kindly look these pictures for me.

The models were fab and I think our clothes looked great. It was nicely to attend something like this as both a brand and a blogger. It was hard work getting everything prepared for the show and the models did a fab job. I am looking forward to attending just as blogger next time and being able to relax a little!

Great meeting you all!
