Motel Rocks Bloggers Bonanza

Last thursday saw the Motel Rocks bloggers night, an evening of fun courtesy of...yep Motel. The event was a great excuse to meet other bloggers and to preview the christmas collection, all whilst sipping away on a few cocktails. I know it sounds heaven doesn't it! Being my first 'bloggers event' i wasn't sure on what to expect, i was a tad nervous as i was headed up on my lonesome but felt a little reassured as fellow blogger Loveforfashion would also be  in attendance.  Along with most of those attending i was in a bit of a panic over what to wear , but knowing i had a freezing commute i took along my trusty ear muffs. The rest of my outfit basically consisted of a pleated maxi (worn higher as midi) with a lace blue top from Warehouse , green slipper style flats from topshop and the obligatory gold jewels.

There was even a nail bar....

My chosen dress...

After a cocktail or two, some candy floss and a scan of the collection we were allowed to select a piece for free. Personally i still can't quite believe we were not only treat to a fab evening but also walked away with the knowledge a dress was on it's way to us! I opted for the Motel Carole Shirt Dress in City Scene. I literally fell in love with the print as soon as i saw someone holding it up , but then i saw the cropped shirt version and spent about an hour in limbo, finally deciding on the dress. I will be sure to complete an ootd post with the beauty once it arrives.

 

 

Overall i was pretty impressed with what i saw, not being your typical Motel Rocks girl i was wondering if i would spy more than 1 or 2 things i liked, but the new pieces have a bit of an 'edge' to them and to me this is a great move. By playing around with prints and colours they've created something fresh but still Motel Rocks. 

A big thanks to Motel Rocks for a great evening and especially @Motel_Selina who invited me and the fellow lovely ladies in attendance.Make sure you check out the blogs of : Tilly, Daisy, Tami, Kathy , Ellie, Kirsty, Lois and Meera  the fabulous ladies who kept me company during the event.
