Vogue - Fashion's Night Out September 2011

Vogue's Fashion's Night Out is an after-hours shopping extravagranza. I went last night and it felt like a shopping street party with roads closed due to the amount of eager fashionista's. I had a great time enjoying the live music, countless complementary glasses of champagne and of course the shopping. It is a great night to network and 'mingle' and see all the new collections. Many brands launched their new collections last night so there was an exciting buzz all over London.

I only had a couple of hours as I wasn't staying in London and had to catch a train home but managed to make it to Chanel and Mulberry - two of my favourite fashion brands.

Chanel

Chanel were launching a trio of blue nail polishes inspired by denim called Les Jeans de Chanel. They were developed by Peter Philips, Creative Director of Chanel Beauty. Chanel were giving complementary manicures using these beautiful new nail colours in their boutique on Old Bond Street. There was a very long queue so I didn't have my nails done but will definitely be purchasing the nail colours soon!

I had a lovely time at Chanel, meeting some of the lovely ladies who work for Chanel and admiring the jewellery and handbags.

Mulberry

Mulberry had a real buzz about it last night. The queue's to get into the store were huge and inside they had a DJ, mojito's, a fortune teller, a face painter, manicurists from Nail Rock and lots of fashion icons. I spotted British beauty Cara Delevinge looking amazing in super skinny jeans. It was very busy and exciting! Mulberry is my all time favourite luxury British fashion brand - I LOVE the clothes, shoes and handbags. Mulberry is so quintessentially British - and being a British girl, I love that.

There was also a photographer there taking pictures of Mulberry fans in front of a giant mushroom and little woodland creatures. I think the Woodland animal theme is so cute. I of course had to have my picture taken!
