    We agreed a time and a place to meet. I was pretty nervous as it was my first time, I wasn’t sure about him. I think he’d done it plenty of times before. When we met he made me feel pretty comfortable and it made everything seem so much easier. As we found a spot, somewhere pretty secluded just on the outskirts of the city centre, he took of his bag and pulled out his impressive piece of camera equipment…

    Unless you live under a rock you’ll know that it’s the BAFTAS this evening. The British Academy of Film and Television Arts award ceremony that celebrates all things gloriously British from the stage and screen. Growing up I longed to be an actress but realized quickly my dream would not emerge victorious so instead studied fashion and textiles in sixth form. I’ve always been in to style and for me the awards ceremony not only catches my eye for the dramatic entertainment but also the magnificent dresses that come with a red carpet appearance too.

    You know when you have had a post brewing for many months? Well it was my turn to break the habit and present my post on the Leeds Fashion Initiative event I went to back in November 2015 (crikey – that’s 6 months ago now?) It was held at the Leeds Museum which was such a great and unique setting for pre-show drinks surrounded by stuffed animals! Pretty crazy I know, but all the same really cool. Luckily I had Jennie from LifestyledByJennie.co.uk to keep me company in a room full of sophisticated fashionista’s and journalists. It’s crazy how bloggers like us get invited to these events.

    I’m just gonna put it out there. I’m brave. I’m brave for wearing this (stunner of a) dress in what felt like minus fifty million degrees. But all in the name of love! Yes, I’m talking about VDAY! That annual, yearly day of the year that gets everyone in to that “marmite” type of conversation. You either love it or you hate it. Some feel it’s one big marketing ploy (which I think research shows it was!) or you get involved and enjoy this little love fest of day. Hey, it gives me the chance to wear this LRD (that’s short for Little Red Dress FYI) for the occasion.
