The highlight for me that night, was getting a glimpse of the reigning queen of the catwalk... no not Tyra, not Janice Dickinson or Kate Moss-who did have a blogging event, but unfortunately I didn't get to this-boohoo! But the mezmerizing, beautiful 'Supermodel' that she is-Naomi Campbell graced the Golden Event with her presence. Naomi, opened the Pop Up'Fashion For Relief', Store. It was an overwhelmingly, star-studded location. Celebs ranged from, Keisha from The Sugababes, Jodie Kidd.

GMTV's fashion stylist, Mark Hayes and many more A'Listers attended the store.

The complimentary, eateries, cocktail bar, beauty treatments and advice on styling and fashion flowed all night.
The night provided, hundred's, or thousands of uber lucky attendees, that's us, with much to walk, drink, eat and talk 'more' about. (who's counting, I was too busy browsing, nibbling and getting the V.I.P. treats for the Fab, 'Glam'!)

All in all we had a 'Glamorous' evening. What more could a committed and dedicated, fashionista and fashionhimsta want during the mid week? A Premier night, which I hope there will be many more of. Unfortunatley I am unable to upload video footage, due to technical problems, my apologies, will do at a later date.

R.I.P. Elizabeth Taylor




One of fashion's greatest icons has left us. What a shock. Her films and sense of style that she, Ms E. Taylor brought to the screen. An iconic siren, I am sure many would agree.
My sympathy goes out to her family and friends, to one who brought drama and flair in movies such as Taming of the Shrew, Cat On A Hot Tin Roof, and my favourite movie of all time, Cleopatra. Long reign the queen of screen.


More Cleopatra moments


Liz in her glorious youth

Liz in love

Liz growing old gracefully

Gone but certainly not forgotten, her grace, beauty and talent live on.
