Felicities Launch Party at The Hippodrome Casino

I had the opportunity to attend FelicitiesPR London Fashion Week launch party held on Thursday 13th September at the Hippodrome Casino in London.

It was an event to celebrate the launch of their international fashion week schedule and showcase the 20 emerging designers they represent. Some of the designers they represent are BasharatyanV(featured in Evening standard ES magazine as 'one to watch'), Alice Palmer, Ada Zanditon, Jeffrey Michael, Lako Bukia to name a few.

 

The evening was a lovely way to kick start London fashion week, an absolutely stunning venue, surrounded by gorgeous pieces from their designers, great company, drinks & delicious canapes.

 

I went along with my friends Erenma & Chichi and we had a lovely time; in terms of my outfit, i kept it pretty simple with an LPD paired with a vintage exaggerated shoulder jacket and my favourite Zara shoes

And there was summer

Mother nature decided to shine her bright lights on us this past weekend & my friends and i were not about to let the glorious sunshine go to waste.

It was a fun filled weekend which started off with a spa day with my mum on saturday, facials & massages, just what the doctor ordered. Then in the evening my friends & i headed off to North London for BBQ which turned into a house party, 10pm finish turned into 1am, my kinda party.

The food served at the BBQ deserves it's own paragraph, it was DELICIOUS!!! firstly i must point out that the BBQ was hosted by boys, so naturally i didn't have very high hopes for the food being served, and before you trail off saying assumptions, assumptions, i know, but i can't help it, sue me. Anyway, to cut a long story short, the food was BOOM, the seasoning was tres on point, the flavour penetrated right down to the bone, and best of all it was seasoned and cooked by the boys, so i was well impressed. By now, i'm sure you have guessed that i am a major foodie yeah yeah yeah

On Sunday, my friend Chichi & i headed off to Primrose hill for the vintage fair, we were quite late and arrived when it was almost finished, however i still managed to stumble upon a gorgeous vintage bracelet watch, jewellery is my kryptonite. There is another vintage fair coming up at the end of the month hopefully i'll be able to make it to that one too and be on time.

Finally we grabbed a quick dinner at Busaba before heading off to Hyde park to meet some more friends where we stumbled upon the BBC Radio 2 live in hyde park concert, free music and great atmosphere.

All in all i had a great weekend, hope you all did too.

PS: night time pictures were taken on my iphone hence the quality, i'll try and do better next time :(

This dress is 2 sizes too big, but it was the last one they had & i was in love with it especially the back...naturally i decided to cinch the waist with a belt to make it wearable and less drowning...thoughts, does anyone else do this?

1+1

Saturday was an amazing day for me, i watched my best friend from secondary school get married at St Paul's Cathedral in London.

She looked gorgeous in a self designed dress made by her mum (mummy is TALENTED) & the groom looked dashing as well. The theme was black tie with a dash of red, It was truly a classy event with a Caribbean flare, it was great to see old faces on such a joyous occasion.

I threw major shapes on the dance floor without a care in the world, reminiscing on times past when all i loved musically was simply Caribbean jams.

I managed to take some civilised photos at the start of the day, so no pics of me sweaty on the dance floor thankfully; I wore this beautiful yellow dress from Monsoon, paired with heels from Zara, Accessorize clutch and charm bracelet by Roberto Cavalli. Let's just say my look for the day was uber i feminine and girly.

Hope you all had an amazing weekend :)
