Friday night was the best night for both my purse and wardrobe as it was Swindon Swishing! Bring old clothes for new clothes in aid of CALM. Great stuff! New clothes, plus getting rid of old ones, equals eco shopping at its best! I went with my work collegue tasha and my fellow queens Ruth and Ela and we were ready for clothes war! You had 20 monuties browsing (where i picked my besties then hid them somewhere) then you had to go whilst they rearranged them (they were all sorted in size order) then they open the doors and whoosh! You may never see so many grown women run so fast, someone actually got elbowed in the face! Women scrambling for the rails like this was the first time they had seen clothes! Naturally i grabbed a ton of clothes and got everything i wanted plus more! (had to give ela the sparkly jacket tho, sob! :( im too nice haha). The raffle was also drawn (didnt win, suprise!!) and overall everyone addicted to swishing!!
Then onto Rachel's Wedding shop opening in the morning! The shop was looking amazing though I brought some mud in on my heels (awkward moment, always happens to me!). The mayor of Farrigndon was there as well as lots of supporters! A photographer took a picture of my shoes??!! Aha but we got to do what we do best, try on dresses!!! Yey!
Here is me and Ruth in our matching dresses that i couldnt get off in the end, sooo wanted it! matches my sash! But hey, have to save those pennies, unless someone wants to buy it for me! hint hint!! Rachel also stocks Mia Solono Bridal wear which is my PERFECT Dress sponsors so check them out, they are made to last and are just too gorgeous!!
Then for the nightime, its swish oclock! The Swish ball, held at the MECA for Prospect Hospice and had some amazing live music acts!! We were V.I.P guests (never get to say that!) and we had our own table with champers and the like! We were given our Propsect buckets to collect pennies, which turned to notes! And got to dance the night away! We were also filmed by Swindon TV and i'm pretty sure you will see some of my ammmazing moves on camera :S
Sunday was a PERFECT rest day! And actually have a weekend where I don't have any appearances, oh my gosh!
