#ldnbloggersparty & driving with BSM.
21:13
I like red. A lot. Do you?
So I started the day with my #BFF, my bestie for life. She's a Yorkshire Terrier with hints of Chihuahua - also known as a Chorkie :)
Next, I went on my way to the #LDNBloggerParty hosted by the gorgeous, classy and fabulous Scarlett London (left) - I loved seeing the blogger babes, including Lucia from Style Confessional (middle) who I think looks like a young Cat Deely #wolfwhistle, I met Lucia at LFW and she is a total babe! I also met some lovely readers, it always brightens my day when people tell me they read my blog but it never feels real! The event was held at Dirty Martini in Hanover Square, It literally took forever to get there because of getting caught in the human traffic at Oxford Street, but I got there in the end and it was #totesamazeballs.
At the event, there was a brand called Orliflame who I think is #onetowatch. The brand reminds me of Avon, I didn't expect them to have such a wide variety of products, a catalogue full! As you know, I LOVE red lipstick. I normally only wear Russian Red by Mac but OMG I was so impressed with Orli Flames lipsticks and lip crayons, they feel just like lip balms! I would normally put a thin layer of Nivea Essentials Lip Balm or EOS Lipbalm underneath any lip product but Orliflame's lip products definitely tick all the boxes! They offered to send me some products to review which was so nice of them. I am so impressed with the Lip Impact Crayon, so so so soft! Use it as a base, a lip liner and/or on it's own. I love it and will defo be using it in many ways!
I was told the cocktails were fierce but unfortunately I couldn't sample any as I had a two hour driving lesson booked with BSM. I actually hoped to change my outfit to a more driving appropriate 'fit however I would have been late! I rushed out of the event with Annie Bean (another LFW babe who I adore!), got on the train and literally JUST got home in time for my lesson, I had no time to change my outfit but I did change my Zara heels to my H&M perspex flatforms, which will be a staple of mine for life! If you're looking for comfy driving shoes like there's this site called Brantano who sell loads and loads of shoes espesh the casual kind! I've actually got a little story for you, when I was 11 (in year 7) my school had a French Fashion Show (which I won, woop!) - I designed and made every single item I was wearing but I remember vividly my boots been from Brantano, I remember going to my local store and the boots were just there staring at me with puppy eyes saying "you need me for your show!" and conveniently they were 50% off, so I was like #LEGGO!
It was my first driving lesson ever and it was super fun! The instructor was friendly and conversational so there were no #megaAWKS situations, which is great! He taught me some driving acronyms (we all know I love acronyms!) and so driving for me was gone with the wind fabulous! I didn't stall once and the instructor told me he was quite surprised as people normally stall on their first lesson (I hope he doesn't say that to everyone!). Oh, but I need to work on my steering, it's not quite the same as playing games on the Playstation ;) BSM have a 48hr cancellation policy which may not be ideal for the "blogger" lifestyle, you can be super organised but sometimes, last minute events could pop up at any time and you can sometimes be given hours notice, fashion moves at a fast pace! However if you know you're able to give 48hrs notice every single time you may need to re-schedule or cancel, then go for it!
Got home, put my heels back on and then took my puppy for a walk. You're probably wondering who in the earth does that!? Lo siento amigo, I just love heels!
I also love you, you're beautiful and thank you so much for reading this blog post and I'll talk to you soon!
