Come along to our pop-up shop!
I don’t normally give much away about what I’m getting up to at uni (It’s stressful enough during the day without recalling it on here too..!) but this is a big exception – in fact – something I want you ladies to get involved with…
I’m afraid this is only going to be applicable to you Londoners, but my class is hosting a pop-up shop at Brent Cross Shopping Centre (in the central atrium on Thursday 5th and Friday 6th) in aid of the Japan relief fund. With a tropical theme, we’ll be getting up to everything from nail painting to a little blog workshop from yours truly (nervoussss) and I’d really love it if you could come along and join in.

There is going to be a launch event for the 2-day shop tomorrow evening at 5:30pm - 7:30pm, there will be live illustration, competitions, tropical nail makeovers and of course, cocktails and dancing! Whilst we’ve invited as many London bloggers as we can think of, I’m sure there are people we’ve forgotten and I’d love to open up the invite to you too! If you’d like to come to the event please leave a comment on here saying so and just let the lady on the makeshift ‘door’ know that I sent you to make sure you get your goody bag full of beauty treats.
..and as for the little fellas above..they have been specially created by Bobby Dazzler to be sold at the shop! I’m absolutely in love with the little moustached man. There will be a workshop on how to make your very own Bobby Dazzler doll on Friday at 2pm and I can’t wait to make a little monkey (did I ever tell you how obsessed I am with monkeys?!) Although what’s better is If you come along to the event in your finest tropical attire, you’ll be in with the chance of winning one! I’m not sure if I can actually find anything brightly coloured in my wardrobe but I’m going to give it a try – hopefully see you there!
For info on how to get there, as well as the schedule and more about the project, take a look at the website, flashparadise.co.uk – and make sure to add us on Twitter for live updates. Thank you so much for your support x







This sounds like an amazing event, you and your classmates should be proud of yourselves for supporting such a worthy cause in such a fun way.
I’m sad I won’t be able to attend (I’m based in Manchester)!

Oh times like these I wish the commute into London wasn’t so expensive and that I didn’t live in the Midlands. Seriously though, good luck to you, Lucy and your class- it sounds like such a wonderful and inspirational project!!
Sounds great! Will probably try to attend on Friday!

Hey Carrie… I just wanted to say that it was lovely to meet you earlier (I’m Raquel’s friend… I don’t think I ever introduced myself). It was fun having a blogging chat, and if I didn’t live out of a suitcase I would definitely have been taking home one of the Bobby Dazzler critters! ; D
Oh my. Times like these I wish I lived in London. We’ve just come across your blog and no word of a lie, yours is one of the sweetest, best laid out and content-worthy of blogs I’ve come across.
So looking forward to reading more.
