Vogue & Tatler: The Golden Ticket event



This was an incredible event, so many celebrities turned up at the event including Naomi Campbell, Sophie Ellis Bextor and Parade. It was filled with fashion, champagne and music, with Sophie Ellis Bextor as the DJ for parts of the night. Didn't really look any many shops, well, we only looked in one which was Kurt Gieger because we're obsessed with shoes! Overall, we went celebrity searching and kept taking cocktails off the waiter's trays, hehe. It was one amazing night though!

GOOD NEWS!

So I had my sixth form interview today, which I was extremely nervous about.... turns out I had nothing to be nervous about. I have been accepted at the sixth form and on to the courses I want to do, which is Fashion and Clothing (Fashion designing), Moving Image Arts, English Language and Communication Studies. I am so excited to go to sixth form now, the tutors there are lovely and I know quite a few people who will be attending that sixth form. Only 6/7 months till I start!
This is one of the outfits that was on the catwalk at Westfields, London. This was my least favorite outfit that I saw that day. It is a very 70's look and the flared legs just make your legs look bigger than they are. If you have skinny legs like this model probably has, why would you want to cover them up? Moreover, the pattern on the jump suit makes it look like something you'd wear to bed, not something you'd wear out either day or night.

E-e-e-yebrows

I am obsessed with bold, distinct eyebrows like Bambi Northwood-Blyth's. Seriously, I find them so beautiful- if only I could pull off that look.

Pretty pretty bow

FINALLY! I have managed to do a bow in my hair, hallelujah.

Justin Bieber's concert, 14th March 2011

Wow. What a day and night!
Words cannot describe how amazing that day was, just everything about it was so perfect. I went there with my best friend and we had the My World Package which was pretty expensive but we are huge fans so we wanted to be closer to him than just the concert. So, with the package we got access to the sound check party which is where you watch the dancers and Justin Bieber rehearse and then he just mucks around and plays games. Also, with the package we got an autographed photo book/programme, pre-show party and a VIP gift bag. The gift bag included a Justin Bieber 2011 calender, Justin Bieber charm bracelet and dog tag, a V.I.P hologram ticket, stickers etc.
 The whole day started for us at 3pm which is when we had to check-in a the club where the party was being held. So, me and my best friend left my house at 11am, met my friends on the train on the way to the O2 and we arrived at the arena at 11:30/12pm. So, we went and got some Nandos (yummy!) which only took us half an hour to order and eat, they are VERY quick service! So, as we finished at 12:30 we decided we was going to sit outside the club and just queue up to wait to check-in. We sat on the rock hard, cold floor for 2 and a half hours, my bum went incredibly numb.

When we checked in, we got a V.I.P pass/lanyard which gave us access to the club and sound check. We checked in at 3pm because we was right at the front so we had half an hour before we went into the sound check party. So, we grabbed a milkshake and started partying. All they were playing was Justin Bieber songs so there was about 8 of us just dancing and singing at the top of our voices. I am proud to say we were the only ones dancing, everyone else was just sitting down.


Before you know it, there we are, walking to the back entrance of the arena. Full of excitement! We were about to go into the sound check party, oh my gosh. Me and my best friend were freaking out as this was the part we was both looking forward to. We were the first group to go into the arena which meant we were FRONT ROW! By this point me and my friend were in a complete daze, nothing else mattered to us, we were just shocked that we were front row, at Justin Bieber's sound check and Justin Bieber, his dancers, his  crew were all about to come on stage!

I won't write everything what happened in the sound check as you can watch the videos here. The key parts of the sound check for me was when, Ryan Good was standing infront of me and my best friend the whole time and kept talking to us about stuff. My best friend was just standing there with her hat in her hand and Ryan Good randomly chucked a Swedish Fish in there. So, we freaked out, considering I am like in love with him. Then Justin started playing a game that if we answered his question right we got a sweet. I answered one of them correct which was "What was the first film Jaden Smith ever starred in?" and the answer was Men in Black 2. Didn't actually know the answer, the girl next to me helped me out, lol. Then, Justin said "Whoever can name all my back-up dancers gets to come up on stage and give me a hug?", you can see what happens in one of the videos and he asked me, unfortunately, I only knew three of them. I am the girl in the video screaming "Justin I know two, no, wait I know three!" lol, I go mad and crazy when it comes to him.
Towards the end of the sound check, Justin wanted to compete against Jaden Smith. So, he collected everyone's hats who were on stage and my best friend chucked her pink hat up there as well, and the game was to see who could make the most hats land on the microphone stand. You can see this in one of the videos, and during the video you hear me chanting Justin, Justin, Justin; then Justin looks at me, points at me and starts chanting with me! My best friend was in so much shock at the fact Justin and Jaden were currently playing with her hat. Alfredo Flores was also sitting on the stage in front of us, so I called his name and he smiled at me, then winked and waved; I died a little inside. His smile is beautiful! Then he came down in front of us and hi-fived us. Ahhhhhhhhh.

When the sound check was over we went back to the pre-show party and was sitting there in shock of what had just happened. We were sitting there talking about what had just happened, considering me and my best friend got split up from the overs. We were only back in the party for 2 hours but we just wanted to get into the arena now!

At 7pm, me and my best friend ran round to the entrance of the arena and got in the fast-track queue. There wasn't much of a queue so we got through quick. We literally ran to our seats, but on our way there we saw Nick Demoura and he wanted to take a picture of us, so he did then we quickly said bye and started running again. Oh my, never ran so much haha! I am so un-fit.
Our seats were so close to the stage it was unbelievable!
I honestly cannot write how the concert was, it is actually indescribable. You have to go to one to know what its like. Lets just say he is an incredible performer and knows how to put on a good show and interact with us.




Outfit of the day

I absolutely adore my maxi skirt, plus it was a bargain, £4 from Asda! Sorry about the picture quality. I will start taking better photos of my clothes and outfits as soon as possible, my camera still currently has no battery from Justin Bieber's concert. Oh, that reminds me I must do a blog post about his concert!

I love looking at old Vogue covers

Shoe porn

These Julian Louie shoes are amazing, I have fallen in love with them. They are not too expensive either, with a price of £85. However, I cannot find them on the Aldo website. I am dying for them, if only I had £85 to spend on them. The different patterns and colours, the orange stitching all tickle my pickle. They remind me of the tribal people, perfect for this spring/summer!
Jeffrey Campbell shoes are so gorgeous. I love the wooden platforms and heels, definitely need a pair for this spring/summer and the height of this heel in particular is perfect for me to give me the height I want when I go for a night out with the girls.
