Working an Event: Jamie Laing Meet and Greet

Hello lovelies!

Sorry for my absence from blogging.. I've been super busy recently with work but promise to try harder :)

I thought I'd do a slightly different blog today about an event I worked recently. As you know, I used to work in Cosmetics, primarily in events which involved organising makeup events and hosting giveaway's and competitions. I've really missed that part of my old job so when one of my lovely friends asked me to help out with a meet and greet event I jumped at the chance.

So the evening started with Jamie arriving almost an hour late, but as he drove from Chelsea down to the South we let him off! :)

Upon waiting for Jamie to arrive, I didn't really know what to expect. I have watched the show since the first series so knew what his character was like on MIC, but was interested to see if he was the light hearted, cheeky chappy he portrays on the hit E4 show Made in Chelsea.

There were over 700 screaming girls ready to meet Jamie so when he arrived we had to sneak him into one of the meeting rooms. We had about half an hour to pick his brains about MIC and what it’s like to be born into the McVitie Empire. Jamie told us all about his life in Chelsea and how he’s living with his friend and fellow cast member Andy Jordan, not to mention some super juicy gossip about the show, but I won’t ruin it for you :)

The DJ was downstairs warming up the overly excited girls so it was nice to take some time to have a cocktail and a chat before all of the madness, not to forget numerous selfies :)

At 22:00 we took Jamie onto the stage where he answered some of the DJ’s questions, he seemed quite shy and not as confident as some people might think.

Next we moved into the meet and greet section of the bar. Some of the girls had been queueing for 4 hours to meet him so we made sure they got a lovely picture with him. The time we spent taking meet and greet pictures is a bit of a blur, we had 700 girls who all wanted their picture with him so it was pretty full on taking all the girls iphone’s and cameras for a snap with the Chelsea star.

The evening ran really smoothly and Jamie was a really good sport. It must have been hard work for him having to pose for hundreds of photo’s in the baking hot bar but he remained charming and fun throughout the whole event.

Thanks Jamie!

Gossip Girl Butterfly Stickers

I've been obsessed with Gossip Girl and Serena Van Der Woodsen ever since I can remember and have always wanted to buy some of the 3D butterfly stickers she has on her bedroom wall at Blair's House..

So I was super excited when I finally found a company called Bedding Inn that sells them, and for a bargain too at just $10.69.

 My friend's and I always quote Gossip Girl and it's an ongoing joke we have so I think these quirky  butterfly stickers with be a perfect Christmas present for them too. You can position the stickers wherever and however you like, I'm thinking a couple on the wall behind my dressing table will look super cute..

The 3D stickers come in three different colours, black red and cream, so depending on the colour scheme of your bedroom you can choose the most appropriate colour.

Born Pretty Makeup Review

Born Pretty is an online cosmetic company that sells an abundance of beauty products at discount prices. Usually the quality of products takes a hit when the price is so low but I was keen to see if this was the case. 

Born Pretty asked me to pick any two products from their website to try, being a lover of liner I opted for two gel liners.

This first liner is this Leopard print 2 in 1 gel liner. The liner is made up of a cole liner which is great for daytime definition and a liquid liner which really compliments a smokey eye. Im not overly keen on the packaging but the reviews were really good so I thought I'd give it a try.

The cole liner is smooth so applies really well to the lash line, there's no need to use a sharpener as a twist mechanism releases the product.. Bonus! The gel liner applicator is like a felt tip pen, the size is just right meaning you don't have to apply multiple strokes to the eye to get a slick finish. The tip is firm which allows great precision when creating a cat eye.

This liner retails at $4.95

This product was delivered in 7 days from ordering which is quite impressive considering the products are made in China.

The next product I chose was this waterproof Gel Liner. The packaging really reminds me of the Topshop liners so at $6.52 I was excited to see if the quality compares.

This liner comes in ten different shades, I chose the black but will definitely be buying the other colours to try.

  The brush of the liner is very slim so allows you to work the product closely between the lashes, It's jet black so gives strong definition. The liner is waterproof so lasted well for my 10 hour day at work.

 I would definitely recommend these liners and am excited to try some other Born Pretty Products.
