Laundry Boutique Blogger Event!

Last night I was lucky enough to attend a Blogger event at the Laundry Boutique in Manchester, a super pretty boutique shop in Deansgate full of the most gorgeous clothes a girl could wish for! 

I finished work at half four and had to catch the half five train into Manchester, so after quick get ready rush, spritz of perfume and re-application of make-up, I finally arrived an hour and a half later! I was greeted with a glass of bubbly (which I accepted and then realised I couldn't drink- damn you detox!) and some yummy nibbles, and given a quick explanation of what the evening would hold. All I needed to do was look through all the rails of lovely clothes - a hard task as I'm sure you can imagine- and then try all my favourites on. I could then choose the outfit I loved the most to have a picture in, and the blogger who gets the most Facebook likes and Twitter re-tweets on their picture can then win the outfit, amazing!! 

The shop itself is just so pretty, I fell in love with the flamingo printed wallpaper straight away. It's also really inviting, with the clothes rails filled with everything from floaty summer linens to bright printed co-ords. As well as the selection of gorgeous clothes, I just couldn't take my eye off the centre-piece table full of my one major weakness, statement jewellery! My absolute faves were the boho-style beaded ones, one of which I included in my outfit, and a really in-your-face necklace decorated with coins that I would've loved to get my hands on- maybe because of the fact that they looked like chocolate coins, chocolate addict all the way!

For the style challenge I picked an absolutely gorgeous purple pastel drop waist dress. The colour stood out to me straight away, and while I'm not 100% sold on whether the fit suits me or not  (why do outfits always look better in the changing rooms than on pictures?) I have to say I'm too in love with the dress to care! I also teamed it with some AMAZING green jewelled sliders, a summer staple I'm desperate to get my hands on, and a statement tribal necklace. Anyway, major plug warning here, but if you like my outfit then I would be so grateful if you headed to Laundry B's Facebook page here and Twitter page here and Like the image/Re-tweet the tweet to vote for me in the Style Challenge!

Thank you so much to Laundry Boutique for a lovely evening and the fab opportunity to win some of their gorgeous clothes!
