Vodafone London Fashion Weekend Tote bag

This is the actual tote bag itself which I really love as I think the snake/bird/dragon design is so funky.I will definitely get use of this bag on summer days to the beach or to use when travelling to put my makeup and hair products in.

The contents of the bag itself:In a random order
 
-Label M, blow out spray which ''creates volume, heat and uv protection'' when you blow dry your hair.Im excited to try this out but might not do for a while as my hair is already damaged enough without applying heat to it (whoops).
 
-LavAzza coffe-This is for coffe makers and is by café espresso.I should imagine its just standard coffe but I don't actually drink it (I like to think I am too young to drink it and will start drinking it as soon as I go through a midlife crisis) so I will probably just give it to my dad.
 
-Beauty bar cereal cubes which are banana,apple,cinnamon and honey flavour.This looks extremely intresting as it says they ''fortify hair and nails'' and contain vitamins D,E and niacin and Zinc.I am very much hoping that they will taste as good as they look.
 
-Essie Nailpolish in ''266 naughty nautical''.I think you will either love or loathe this nailpolish because of the colour which is a bold turquoise. I really love this varnish and have already painted it onto my toes which did not disappoint. The varnish is quite thick so I only had to apply one coat which did not smudge at all. It also dried quickly into a very smooth texture and has not chipped at all (been wearing for a week) so yay yay yay.
 
-Last but not least! Maybelline new York Baby lips lip balm in peachy kiss. It is described as a ''moisturising lip balm with a hint of colour'' and it is exactly that!.I love to wear this on a day when I want my makeup to look natural as it gives a little peachy tint which complements my blusher but also moisturises my lips perfectly at the same time.I will definitely be heading out to by all of the other colours in this range soon!.
 
That's all! good little bits and bobs ey?
Thanks for reading!

Vodafone London Fashion Weekend

Now recently me and my sister decided to spend a day in London.During this day we decided to pop to the London fashion weekend sponsored by Vodafone at Somerset house.We had silver tickets meaning we sat in the 2nd row for the catwalk (very close with a  clear view) and also got a tote bag full of free goods especially for silver ticket holders (which I shall do a post on).

The fashion show itself was a very enjoyable experience as we got to see 4 different fashion trends which were precious metals (metallic materials) flower power (floral patterns) Lace embrace (lace material and finally good sport (fitness clothing mixed with formal wear).I really enjoyed the show as we got to see lots of different looks to inspire.All of the clothing from the fashion show was from theoutnet.com which is an online fashion website which sells designer clothes at discounted rates.During the show the host said that many celebrities including Victoria Beckham love to shop on the outnet.As soon as I got Home I had a look at the website and they sell lots of lovely designer pieces from various designers including Alexander mqueen.The best way I can describe the website is "like an expensive t.k.maxx with famous designers".My favourite trend of the show was Flower power as I love wearing floral patterns and they showed how to pull of wearing multiple floral patterns without having an outfit that clashed or was uneasy on the eyes.

Some photos I took of the catwalk:

One of the looks for lace embrace

A photo of the finale where all of the models came out wearing various outfits from all of the trends we were shown.


Another look from lace embrace.

A look from precious metals.
The models were actually all so beautiful and looked lovely in every outfit. I bet it's difficult being a model knowing you are going to be judged on your looks and the way you act so I will praise them very highly.
A Photograph of Julien MacDonald's display outside the fashion show. I absolutely love his gold dresses to pieces! even more so once I realised that the gold dress on the left is a dress that Taylor swift wore recently to a red carpet even (not sure which event uh oh) and looked stunning in.
 
Bravo Vodafone fashion weekend you pulled off a hell of a show!
