London Fashion Week Party

Hi there beauties. I've got to say I am loving this sunshine. Fingers crossed everyone that it stays. 

I have a lot to show you in today's post which is the Bloggers Love London Fashion Week Party that I attended on the evening of Tuesday 18th February at Mahiki which was a fabulous venue.

So I will start with the fashion show .........














This dress looked like wearable art. I have met with Tara the brain behind this brand before and I am definitely a fan.

These dresses looked fabulous on. I met Kiss Kouture before and loved some of their pieces previously. The metallic bandage dresses were my favourites here. To view my previous post featuring Kiss Kouture see this link!

Now on to some of the brands exhibiting at the venue ......



There were some great textured layered pieces as well as some lace detailing from this brand. The Valour & Valkyrie palette is mainly muted with some blue and purple items that shine through.



The Melville Purses (bottom right) were my faves!





I met The Custom Underground at another Bloggers Love event previously. I love their colourful graffiti designs and the beanies are so cool. I also featured The Custom Underground in this post!



ICE London gifted me with one of their Swarovski pencils in pink (as shown in the heart display). I adore the Princess Pen's (bottom left). I see they have also other items that I love the look of such as fantastically bold coloured reading glasses, wash bags, 2GB USB Man and business card holders. ICE London also offer a gifting service where you can add names, initials, messages or a logo in your chosen font all beautifully presented.





JustFab offer a VIP, unique and personalised fashion styling shopping experience that you can enjoy every month from £35 plus free delivery and returns. With on-trend styles, designer-inspired shoes, handbags, jewellery and denim all up for grabs. The JustFab stylists will pick out the newest products to suit your style every month. You can skip a month if something doesn't take your fancy and you don't have to purchase the items that are chosen for you as it's your shopping experience so why not choose your own too. If you don't have time to shop the stores or are just fashion addicted then this service with many celebrity fans could be for you. 

Thank you to JustFab for the Divine chocolate too. It was yummy :)



I had a lovely chat with two of the lovelies at the Oriflame stand. One of which was MUA Louise Connor who gave me some handy tips. This is a brand I am very excited about. They have a vast range of skincare, body care, make-up, fragrance, haircare, accessories and wellness products. I was gifted with one of their best selling products the Wonder Lash Mascara so I will review this for you.





It was great to see Innaya Couture at another Bloggers Love event. We previously met at the Bloggers Love LFW event in September 2013, link! They have some fabulously detailed jewellery to take you back to a time of kings, queens and palaces.



I had a great chat with Not Just Stuff. I am totally all over these bold necklaces. They would set off a plain tee or dress perfectly. There are more delicate items too from this brand as well as watches, handbags, beauty and accessories.




The amazing Python Weave Kit Bag above opens up much more. Great for those always on the go. Pepper & Mayne also showed some great quilted textures that were very soft to touch. Perfect for dressing comfortably in style. I also loved their best selling gorgeous ballet dresses.

Pepper & Mayne are also holding a Sky Dance Event on Friday 28th March on the top floor of The Gherkin, London. If you are interested in finding out more check out this link!

Lots of fun was had at this fashion filled event. Cocktails were sipped and manicures were painted while the tunes flowed.

London Fashion Week Event With Designer Sofia Dourvari & Other Brands

Hi there gorgeous people. I have a feeling that this weekend is going to end all too quickly like last weekend did. Weekends should soooo be longer. Anyway enough of my rant and on to the good stuff.

I attended the Bloggers Love London Fashion Week event party on Tuesday evening. It was a very exciting event with a catwalk show from LFW designer Sofia Dourvari and many fashion items from various brands. The event was hosted by Prince’s Trust Ambassador, celebrity stylist and make up artist Lewis-Duncan Weedon who is also the face of several brands including Pavoni Bags. Lewis-Duncan Weedon has also been a two time recipient of 'Best Dressed' award. There were drinks and candy floss for guests to enjoy too. I will take you around the fashion brands that I spoke to first.



The first brand I visited before the show is Ollie May. This is one of their very gorgeous dresses. Unfortunately most of the pieces had actually gone by the time I arrived which was actually early.


I was asked if I would like to take a piece from the Ollie May rail. I chose this Claire Sequin Blouse which is £26.00 on the Ollie May website. This is a size 10 (M). It's a little big on me, but I am think of styling it with a high waisted skirt. I love the collar as it makes this feminine peach blouse pop.



Great space age inspired items from 15thlane.com




Just how adorable are these Cruciani friendship style bracelets from brunioltremare.com. So cute and pretty. £10 each.


Gorgeous girls wearing these fab colourful tube skirts from sexkittencouture.com

I love the look styled with the t-shirt tucked in. Relaxed yet still sexy. These striped designs are 59 Euros each.


beckysboutiques.com featured a range of bandage style dresses. This embellished design stood out for me.


There was so much of a buzz around this fashion line that I could not snap the whole rail. The brand is chateauboutique.co.uk. Chateau Boutique offer custom designs as well as a ready to wear range. Make sure to check out the link for the chance to win a £500 voucher to spend online!


I was asked if I would like to take a piece and so I chose this chiffon yellow and orange cheetah print dress. This photo really does not show just how neon it is, but I can tell you it's bold and beautiful. I wasn't sure about the size so I was offered to take another one too. This one is shown from the front in a size S/M.


This is the same dress from the back in blue and pink, but in a size M/L. The S/M is a better fit on me, but I will make them both work. I am looking forward to styling these up too.





These beautiful girls introduced me to the handcrafted designer jewellery brand Innaya Couture. My preferred pieces were the blue stoned bangle which came in a variety of shades and the head piece worn in the photo above. I love the asian inspiration behind this collection of jewels.



I also received the Rana Argan Oil ~ £9.00 or £23.00 depending on size. This spray can be used on hair, skin and nails.



I liked the kimono prints at dressedbylauren.bigcartel.com.

Crystal Amaze were also there on the evening. I have featured them previously on my blog which you can view here.

I sadly missed speaking with loveumbrellas.co.uk. They have some beautiful designs that make the rain a bit more bearable.

And now on to some of the pieces in the catwalk show from designer Sofia Dourvari ........

Sofia Dourvari is the creator of this luxury ladies wear brand. Many of the designs hark back to the designer’s Greek roots with inspiration taken from Greek architecture, flowing lines inspired by the all natural elements. Sofia officially launched the high-end, luxury range of women’s clothing in 2011. During her studies Sofia won the Best Designer Award in the International Student Festival (2007).

“Fashion and design have always been my passions and my philosophy is to create elegant feminine designs that are creative, unusual and suitable for a wide range of occasions, from parties, galas and events, to weddings and formal dinners and even for the office. I like to create timeless designs suitable for ladies of any age, in both classic, practical shapes, in either pencil or skater-style, as well as dramatic floor-length gowns.”

I am so glad that I got to see some fabulous pieces from a great variety of brands as well as the wonderful creations from designer Sofia Dourvari.

Love to you all
