Vogue Fashion's Night Out 2010

The fashion frenzy is coming to an end in London after a fantastic London Fashion Week and the build up to it at Vogue Fashion's Night Out. Having had such a great time last year Michelle and I were very excited for this year's event.

We started the evening a little earlier than usual by having dinner at our favourite place for yummy dim sum before moving on to our first stop at the French inspired Nicole Farhi. The store turned into a French creperie for the evening with music from Bluey Robinson. It was a glamorous evening - we were surrounded by the fashionably fabulous including Nicole Farhi herself and superstar boxer David Haye.

After a scrumptious dessert of crepes we moved on to the funky sounds at French Connection, followed by Topshop, Mango, Zara, Reiss and ending up for after party drinks 'til late into the night.

We had a fantastic time and even managed to grab ourselves some bargains!

Looking forward to next year!

Fash Fest!

It's that time of year again and our own Michelle and I are getting mucho excited about the up-coming fash fest that is the Vogue Fashion's Night Out!

Last year was the first and we're glad to see it's back again this year, bigger and even more fashionable! More designers, department stores and high street chains have signed up for 2010 with even more exclusive discounts, guest appearances and prizes on offer.

Among the many glamorous highlights is a very special appearance from Giorgio Armani who will co-host a cocktail party with Vogue editor Alexandra Shulman at his New Bond Street store.

I expect our invites are in the post Giorgio?!

The official T-shirt for the London 2010 event features a print by illustrator and print maker Sanna Annukka. I don't like to say I told you so but I have been a champion of Annukka's for some time (if you're on my Christmas card list you may recognise the last two years' cards as Annukka designs)!

Follow me on Twitter for updates throughout the night and keep and eye out for our post-event report and pics!

Fashion's Night Out!

And here we are again… The UK Kolours girl's Michelle and Karen hit the town last Thursday night to attend the brilliant ‘Fashion’s Night Out’ in collaboration with Vogue magazine. Fashion’s Night Out was hosted in stores simultaneously in 13 fashion capitals across the world, including London, New York, Milan and Madrid.

Stores such as Mango, Miss Selfridge, H&M, Gap, French Connection, Selfridges and Burberry opened their doors to fashion frenzied shoppers in a bid to boost the economic gloom by pampering, gifting and even slashing prices to entice shoppers to treat themselves… Hey, it worked on me!

We came out of Oxford Circus tube station and headed straight towards Topshop where most of the crowds were gathering.

First things first, myself and Karen were on a mission to find the free bubbly which was being handed out in really cool miniature bottles; which let me tell you was not easy to find.

We started browsing and managed to pick up some really cool, funky garments and great ideas within the first 10 minutes.

Around the Topshop stage, an assistant gave us a flyer for Vogue’s top tip Autumn Winter ‘10 trends presentation, which was about to start. We took our seats… right at the front. Excitedly we sat enjoying the free chocolate and champagne :-)

The top tips and the models were so good that they even persuaded me to buy some of the featured clothing. I love my Boho woollen cardie from Topshop!! All good inspiration for Indah Autumn Winter ‘10!

After Topshop, we headed down towards Bond Street to check out H&M, Selfridges and Burberry where lots of exiting things were happening.

It was now after midnight and so in need of refreshment we headed to Camino’s Spanish Tapas bar in King Cross for a late drink and a bite to eat… Yummy as ever!

Karen and I had a really good and more importantly an insightful evening and came back with lots of info and ideas. Fashion never stops!

Until next time…
