It seems like forever since the last time I went to London, so when Voodoo Vixen invited me to come check out London Edge Alternative trade show I figured it was the perfect time. Plus I would get to meet loads of awesome bloggers that have become friends. To say I was excited and a little nervous would be an understatement! I arranged to meet the queen of wigs Hannah of Fabulously Fat Fashion just to make sure I wouldn't get lost. She was my Savior or I would probably still be wondering around London now! While I was waiting I took a look around St Pancreas station and spotted this beautiful statue.
There was some awesome detailing all the way around the base. I suggest if you are in London to check it out it consumed me with romance a little.
Arriving at London Edge was all a bit of a rush and sadly I missed out on what looked like an epic goody bag from London Edge themselves. However Voodoo Vixen more than made up for it with their hospitality. We had been asked to pick out a dress and since you may remember I already have the Kitty dress I wore to meet Tess Munster. I picked out the glamorous gorgeous green Penny . I didn't manage to get a good picture on the day but I have took lots for a full review which I will post later this week so here is a sneak peak.
All the Voodoo Vixen team were lovely and uplifting. Not only was I gifted a lovely dress but the talent MUA team did my hair and make up. I didn't catch the name of the lady who did mine but she was really friendly and full of helpful advice. It was also magical to watch other ladies reactions to how pretty they looked with their new hairstyle. I opted for victory rolls and was so pleased with the result. I felt like a princess and was even treated to wine.
As if the Voodoo Vixen team hadn't been lovely enough they invited us to a VIP party in Soho. First us bloggers wanted to have a natter and catch up...not to mention some food. I had the yummiest wild hog and pulled pork burger.
Voodoo Vixen had arranged a cool vintage bus for us to travel to the party in which saved getting lost on the tubes. The party was really cool and we even had some awesome entertainment in the form of drag queens and burlesque. Sadly it was a bit full and hard to see so we entertained ourselves with selfies.
First up was the ever glamorous Meth. Then lovely Hannah who I shared a fun hotel with. Keep your eye out as she was filming for a TV documentary coming soon! I also I met this super awesome lady Chrissy who blogs over at Dainty In Doc Martens. She is so sweet and kind not to mention pretty damn kick ass. I think her daisy print dress looked so awesome on and now it has jumped onto my voodoo vixen wish list.
I had an awesome time meeting all these lovely bloggers click on their name to check out their blogs below :)
Chrissy, Sharon, Hannah, Katie, Sarah, Sam and Me :)
A huge thank you to Voodoo Vixen for such a lovely day! Have you been to a blogging event recently? What was it like?
