LondonEdge Blogger Meet Up With Jawbreaker

Yours truly taking herself very seriously, as per.

Whilst everyone else on planet Earth spent Sunday nursing their hangover, a number of particularly dedicated bloggers headed to Kensington Olympia for the London Edge event to scour out items for future outfit posts, hang out and generally have a rad time. Upon arrival we were handed a massive bag of goodies and a glass of Prosecco so it was obvious that it would already be a great day. Surprisingly I wasn't yet tipsy in the photo above where I'm flailing about in my new Jawbreaker dress, just overly excited.

Being reunited with a bunch of cool cats* that I'd met at the last event back in September was really great and it was great fun going round together ogling at all the clothes on offer. My absolute favourite items included the Iron Fist Care Bear collection, everything the Yummy Gummy latex brand has ever made and one particular dress by House of Intelligence which at first appeared to be an allover print of space but was actually an image of cancer cells under a microscope.

Outfits suitable for a space empress.

10.55 Vth Anniversary Party

The only non blurry photo I managed to get of the after party.

To commemorate 10.55's fifth year of existence, FiftyFiveDsl threw a celebratory exhibition of the new limited edition t-shirt designs in Shoreditch.

The FiftyFiveDsl brand began it's journey as an experimental streetwear line for Diesel, getting it's name from the original line being composed of fifty five designs. The current creative director is actually the founder of Diesel's son, Andrea Rosso.

Rosso himself was at both the exhibition and the after party. As was photographer, Gavin Watson, who created the image for my favourite design in the new collection of the boy in Mickey Mouse ears throwing the v-sign. I didn't get a chance to speak to Rosso but Watson was very friendly and told me he liked my boots and that they were apparently "the first thing he noticed as he entered the room".

At the exhibition itself, there were framed t-shirts from the new collection on the walls but I was mostly distracted by the projector that screened designs onto blank a blank t-shirt, possibly because the picture changed every few seconds and I'm easily amused.

Crystal Head vodka was free of charge at the after party and I definitely felt like my head had turned into a crystal ready to shatter the next morning.
