Nelly.com launch night!

Yesterday I received some very exciting news that I had won tickets to the launch night of new clothing website Nelly.com thanks to a competition run over on blog CharlotteClothier. My first decision was who was I going to take with me? Housemate Chloe was my lucky +1. Here's what I wore.



My dress is from TKMaxx by a brand called Max C. I fell in love with the colour and the little gems on the shoulders add a touch of glamour. I teamed it with a black belt, tights and kitten heels. The leather jacket roughed it up a bit.

I had no idea of what to expect. The venue, a club called Aqua just off Regents Street, was beautifully decorated inside. There was a long corridor with mirrors down either side and a massive bronze bull statue at the end. Nelly.com had clothes hung up around the 3 different rooms and shoes placed upon pedestals.



To prove just how perfect their clothes are for nights out on the town, Nelly.com had their models perform a dance routine with over the top moves wearing bright neon body con dresses and high heels. The new website offers a whole array of different brands and designers all sold at various price ranges so you'll be sure to find something you'll love!

What with it being a launch night and all, of course there were a few familiar faces. There was an awesome DJ set from Radio 1's Gemma Cairney who played a bit of everything from some old skool garage to some Dolly Parton. She was more than happy to stop for a quick photo for the blog too!


After a bit of free wine (3 glasses to be exact) I felt ready to go and strike up a conversation with A1's Ben Adams and his gorgeous Miss Norway 09 girlfriend Sara Skjoldnes, who also does some modelling for Little-Mistress, one of the brands featured on Nelly.com. Having been a mahoosive A1 fan back in the day, I think I done quite well to not embarrass myself, although I do slightly remember doing an impression of a pirate to explain my blog title!


Aren't they the cutest?! So all in all an amazing night which I'd like to thank Charlotte Clothier for picking me. Don't forget to check out the new Nelly.com site and I'll leave you with one last photo of Me and housemate Chloe. Thanks for reading!!
