LONDON FASHION WEEKEND





Hi lovelies! I have a super exciting post for you all today, because as you can see, I went to London fashion weekend! I won the impulse and model's own competition and received two pairs of luxe tickets for the show this morning! I literally received the tickets yesterday, which was really last minute, especially as I usually work on Saturdays! However, luckily enough I had the weekend booked off for other things so I could go! So, I took my friend Laura along and gave the other pair of tickets to Becky from Lipgloss and Lashes who bought her lovely friend along and off we went!

As we had Luxe tickets we were allowed access to the 'Luxe Lounge', which was fab, we had access to free champagne and drinks, though having not eaten all morning we were more interested in the little bowls of peanuts and snacks! There was so much going on and to be honest, I hadn't really known what to expect as the whole thig was so last minute and unplanned. We arrived at 10am and had tickets for the 12:30 catwalk show, so we had a good couple of hours to wander around and get stuck into everything that they had to offer. 

The first thing we did was pop into the Canon 360 photobooth, which was a really good booth with about 48 cameras all in a circle that went off at the same time to take a 360 shot of you. We all went in together and did a jumping shot which was really cool! I've posted it in this post but I'll post it on twitter or on my Facebook page (both linked in the sidebar) so you can all have a peek if it won't play on here! Also, a lot of you will recognise the stunning face in the second photo! Me and Becky met Fleur! (Fleurdeforce), she was super sweet to stop and take (several) photos with us and she is just as gorgeous, if not more gorgeous in person as she is on camera, not jealous at all... (I am). We also went into a little room that was called 'maybelline backstage', where we got the chance to walk on a super cool green screen catwalk, where you get superimposed onto a catwalk with an audience and things, again, if I can I'll pop it on twitter for you all to take a peek at! 

As we had Luxe tickets, we got to sit front row for the fashion show. As you can see, I was super organised and forgot my camera so I had to take all the photos on my phone, hence the slightly crappy quality! It was amazing to be able to be that close to the show. The show we got to see was the trend show, it included 4 different trends, 'Pretty in Pink', 'Back to Nature', Shape Up' and 'Victoriana', which were all gorgeous, however my favourite was of course pretty in pink - definitely a trend I'll be rocking this winter! Another benefit of the tickets was that we got amazing goodie bags at the end of the day too, which I'll probably post more on in a later post! 

I hope you enjoyed my post! Have you been to fashion week? Let me know!
