As a blogger, you've got to love a good event. It's one of the perks, but sometimes there are so many people at one event you get a bit lost in the crowd. That's why I love little events- events where only a select few are invited- as it feels a lot more personal and special. You get more time to talk to other bloggers and the PR people who have organised it, and really get to know them other than just listing them as a 'contact'.
I was kindly invited to TRACE Publicity headquarters to attend their sock styling event in association with SockShop to celebrate the beauty of socks. I (of course) jumped at the chance as, if you don't know (if you don't, you must have really turned a blind eye to my continuous ranting and raving about them) I adore socks. But even I wasn't prepared for the amount of socks there...SO MANY SOCKS! They even had a sock wall, as you will see from the photos below. As well as a tonne of socks, we were spoilt rotten with cakes, sweets, lemonade and champers.
I got to also meet some super lovely bloggers! As well as Sophie who I already knew, I met Tashi, Amelia from Heart Shaped Rose, Amy from Fashion Nymphomaniac, Charlotte from Crave Green Velvet, Chantelle, Jack from Oh So Jack, Alexia from Smells Like Fashion and Kate from Little Miss Winney. And one of the highlights was definitely Gemma Cairney popping in to pick up some stuff!
Along with the socks, there were also rails of clothes, stacks of shoes and an abundance of jewellery for us to dress up in and once we had finally decided on our outfits, we had our pictures taken for SockShop's Pinterest competition (check it out here)! Here are my outfits that I styled:
