Events To Check Out! Clothes Show Live #1


First of a new series;
My thoughts and experiences on events in the UK

Clothes show live is held yearly at the NEC in Birmingham UK

Hi my lovelies! While being a blogger, I've come across many different events that I have found either through socializing through Twitter or doing my research. Events vary from fashion to car shows for all ages and hobbies and I'm focusing on Beauty and fashion events that I feel would benefit to my readers both new and old!

Today's post is about the event I aim to attend per year, The Clothes Show Live. 
FACT - The first show launched during 1989 in London by Gavin Brown and June Barker, 25 years ago on the back of the then popular television programme. Due to overwhelming visitor turn-out since 1990 the event has been held at the NEC, in Birmingham, UK.

The Clothes show usually runs during December each year, that brings together many fashion and beauty brands and influences with famous faces and young designers all under one roof! I've personally attended the show about 5 times now and each time it just gets better and better. It's perfect for christmas shopping or just treating yourself as brands such as Rimmel London and Barry M put together one off bargain bags with tons of products in it's the best time to stock up on all those key essentials and fashion pieces.
My last visit was the 6th of December 2015 and one I will never forget; It was this time that I was honored to be granted a press pass for UniqueLoveStyle and came face to face with Louise Pentland and Jules Heptonstall! It's been a nightmare trying to sieve through all the photos I captured that day but I'd love to share my favourites with you. 
I'd like to personally thank Good Results PR for their helpful staff who were a pleasure to work with and Olympus which allowed me to use the Olympus-Pen camera during my visit and believe you me, that camera is on my lust list!
Without further adieu here is my experience through pictures of one of the most talked about Fashion events.

New Changes//New Jobs//Fresh Start



Hello my lovelies.
Yes it has been a while; So much has been happening it's been tricky to update you all!
Since October 2015 I started a seasonal job which I can truly say, changed my life for the better. 

New Jobs..

Personally It's been difficult to find work as well as falling into something that I'm passionate about, I'm sure it's the same for many of you too and I started to feel that I needed to push myself and my boundaries and just 'give it a go!' 
So when I applied for three jobs around the same time I wasn't overly surprised that two of the three didn't respond; I've been use to it.
I received an email asking me to attend an interview, and I grabbed the opportunity with both hands, a store that I admired from afar and always thought it would be amazing to be given a chance to prove myself. I was pretty nervous to be honest, It was a group interview and with 25 of us attending I wondered how I'd stand out during the activities and questions we were asked. I was just myself, that plain old Ellie.
It was a week that passed, and I got an email..
That stomach churning feeling began and I didn't want to click Open.. But I did.. And I read it.. I was trying to process the information and I looked again..
'You have been successful in your application for the seasonal position at Pandora' 
I was gobsmacked. My time at Pandora was absolutely wonderful, I learnt so many new skills and gained knowledge on the items learning the in-depth craftsmanship that is put into each and every one. I built lovely friendships too with both staff old and new and was a pleasure to serve customers who wanted a gift to mark the most memorable moments of their lives. When my contract there came to an end it was quite emotional, it was like leaving part of a family behind but I have found confidence that I felt that I'd once lost thanks to them to proceed in my life with new opportunities to look forward to.

Events..

It's always a goal of mine to go to the yearly fashion event that is Clothes Show live in Birmingham, And during 2015 there was no expectation. I was keen to go during the Sunday due to my complete blogging idol, SprinkleOfGlitter, attending and luck may have it I was granted a press pass too! Meeting Louise was a joyous moment and one that I'll treasure always (I shall also be doing a separate blog post about my time at the clothes show with plenty of Pics galore!)
I have also been going to many Vintage fairs, dressed up to the nines as I'm channeling my inner vintage vixen! My passion has always been the 50s and pin-up inspired glamour, it is one of my goals in life to become an alternative model in the modeling world and find my inner self confidence through it. I've found attending these fairs and taking my camera along for the journey will build up to bigger things so we shall see!

What's to come for 2016?

Well, there is going to be some exciting posts as I'm focusing more on producing outfits with that unique twist, some amazing collaborations with a very special some one.. I'll also be putting together my first Bloggers meet-up which will be raising money for AlzheimersUK and yes maybe a sneaky bit of exposure in the Nottingham Weekend Post this Saturday 6th of February. 

Make sure you're following me on Twitter @ellielouuu so you can keep updated on what's happening! 
Much love to you all,

My 100th Blog Post!



I still can't believe that i'm writing my 100th post, Do excuse me while I literally pinch myself...Yes It's real; Blogging for me has become not just a passion but a part of who I am. 
I've been blogging for over 2+ years now, and believe you me, I didn't think it would come this far. It has helped me build my confidence by attending blogger meet-ups along with going to events such as The Clothes Show Live! I use to have days where I was to scared to even leave my house but the lovely support of the blogging community has really helped me come out of my shell.

I've thought hard about what I should do for this post, firstly I want to thank my readers for standing by my blog and have become great friends to me, especially the support from Twitter you have all been amazing! 
Also I'd like to mention those I have met along the way from PR staff to independent business owners for taking the time to collaborate with UniqueLoveStyle.

Now i'd love to share with you some pictures that has highlighted both my 2013 and some from 2014!

Lots of love!
