Last week I attended the Company Style Blogger awards which I know many of you voted for me to win the 'Best Designed' category. Again, thank you so much. Unfortunately I did not win but as much as it is a cliche to say, I feel special even getting so far.
The night was fun too and there were so much awesome freeness (inc, BAR!!) that the goodie bag alone made the wearing heels in the rain worth it. As I turned up alone I was a bit apprehensive as to how the night will pan out but after doing the room circle, you know; when you do a lap of the place you are to check out the scenery (usually apt for when going to the club) and taking some snaps here and there I sat down and got to chatting to the lovely Toni from tandffashion; her blog was up for best style blog. We stuck together for the rest of the night and it was a blast, and get this....SHE GREW UP IN WEMBLEY! Like me! Haha.
So after the awards were read out there were many things to check out like a sunglasses customizing section, a Paul Mitchell hair corner and a photobooth. As I am balls at at 'networking' I gave myself one goal and it was to chat to the Editor of the magazine Vicky White, and I did and she was a doll. Without much strategy I ended up nattering away to the acting Photo Editor and a features writer which was nice too. The annoying thing was that everyone was asking if I had a card....do people who blog have cards now?! That is something I never considered, especially when the idea of writing as a title 'blogger' actually make me cringe.
The whole night was an enjoyable experience but something I am not seeking to attend often. However, after the night was over, when I was travelling home I did have some ideas about the future of my blog; what it could be as a brand and the overall direction of it and it put my mind into overdrive. In a good way! In conclusion, there is a lot of work that needs to be done by me, but hard work pays off right??
