Style Diary X The lockdown wardrobe released!

Warm summer evenings are here and it's finally time to release the wardrobe I bought throughout lockdown life! Didn't we all over shop online during isolation!

I bought this dress as I thought it would be 'bump friendly', in actual fact I wore it very little during pregnancy because we literally weren't allowed out!

The hubby brought these monochrome speckled insulation boards home and naturally to me they have more use as a backdrop to document my outfit before heading to Alberts in Didsbury for some cocktails! I even had to get Arthur involved in the photoshoot!

Rianna Phillips X ASOS X The Clothes Show :-)

This game changing event happened last month, it was too good not to report about. Better late then never! 

 I've visited the clothes show loads of times before but never once did I think I'd set up shop at the event! I went along with a group of sellers who just like me, sell with ASOS Marketplace. 

What an amazing and mental experience the 5 days were! It was hard work but I had the best time <3 

The sampling stage of SS16 overlapped with the time I was at the show, instead of stressing about it I decided to take them along and work on embellishing fabrics on my stall (photographed below). It was amazing how many customers stopped to watch and ask questions about my surface design techniques. My little square table was covered in pots of beads and sequins!

It was great to meet other sellers from across the UK and also get the chance to meet customers face to face.

 I created a 'made to order' monogram catalogue which customers could flick through and choose the exact personalisation they wanted on their RP phone case, these were by far the top seller whilst I exhibited!
