#BloggersUniteSummer15 Meet-Up
Oh it feels like I've been waiting months for last month and to write this post...possibly because I have, Saturday June 13th I got on a train and met up with my favourite bunch of girls and also got to meet some new faces too! Hannah, Emma & Frankie have been planning this day for months, they did an amazing job of giving us a good tease and then completely changing the subject! The event was in Sheffield which meant a fair bit of travelling for a girl from Birmingham. I was awake by 6am, on my first train for 8am and in the company of Sian, Emma & Charli all before 11am. I hadn't had much sleep and was still feeling run down from my cold, but that didn't stop my excitement! We arrived at the Eat Eten Cafe in Sheffield just in time for the meet to begin. Being as I've gotten so close to the girls over the past few months, I felt that even though we weren't planning the event with them, the excitement of the event made me so happy that this day had finally arrived.
We started the event with a 'blogger speed dating', a scary but successful idea. A genius idea from the girls, but I think my nerves turned me into a rambling mess and the girls that spoke with me were possibly scared off. So sorry about that girls. We then chatted for a little while and picked up our raffle tickets. The girls not only had arranged a meet, but arranged this as a charity event. Raising money for the charity, LOOK GOOD, FEEL BETTER. A charity which helps girls and women who're suffering with cancer. £5 for each ticket and lots of amazing prices were on offer, good job girls, good job!
We then heard talks from Ben & Faye who introduced us to KERATIN REVOLUTION, NOIR CAVIAR HAIR & INFINATURA. My hair is in need of some serious love and I think these products would do them a world of good. (InfiNatura smells amazing too btw). Sadly I left the samples I was given in Sian's car and can't try them just yet, boohoo! We also had a chat by Mine from MOOGOO / DUSTY GIRLS, completely natural skin care & makeup based products (which is always a good thing). I'd never heard of either brands before but learnt so much and I can't wait to try the products I got...which means a post will be coming soon! After the chats had happened and we'd mingled some more, it was time for the raffle & I WON! I won BURT'S BEES Gift set, first prize drawn out too... I'm never lucky on raffles and was so surprised I'd won it. Though they had a gift voucher for a tattooist, and I would've loved to have seen my dad's face if I'd won that, haha.
We then gave much love to the girls for putting this event together and headed home...and when I say home, I mean...we went back to Sian's and had a nose through our goodies bags together, but I headed home to go straight to work. I had such an amazing day, and so amazed with what the girls pulled off. Also the goodie bags, were the best I've received! I hadn't been to a meet for a couple months and this one was totally worth the wait. And can't wait to plan to see these girls again and seeing them only once in a while makes me a little sad.
