Me and that bloke from Match of the Day

Barburrito 

The National Football Museum may not seem a likely place for The Wardrobe Angel to hang out but when I was invited to the kick off of the 2013 Hall of Fame celebrations I thought I would give it a whirl. Armed with a Barburrito (if you have never had one you are missing out. Click here to find out more) and my mate George we jogged along to the Urbis ...








Now George is a bit of a Newcastle fan (via her hubby) but to say I was out of my depth is an understatement! We went to check out the gallery of Hall of Famers and I knew about 3 blokes off the list ... so for more info on the Hall of Fame click here. And enjoy the photos!


Nice hair


Me and Becks. 

Thought my Zoe Karsson jumper was appropriate for such an evening. BOYS! (Purchased from Black White Denim)

That Whistles clutch again. Oh, and a Preen skirt from eBay.

Arty shot in the lift.




Me and Mark Lawrence. Yep. Match of the Day Man.

Mark and George. 

She's a happy soul!

Topshop and the over 30's woman...



LOVE the clutch



A couple of weeks ago I went to a Topshop event in Leeds to publicise their Personal Shopping service. Now, being a woman over 30 (holla!) I have steered away from Topshop in recent years as I always felt like a granny when I was in there. Plus the sizing was a bit on the small side for me. But in a room with interactive models I found my opinion starting to change....
I was pleasantly surprised by the name of the game the Personal Shoppers (PS) talking about: VERSATILITY and ways to wear - take to suit above for example. The PS ran through a list of ways to wear the suit: separate, together, shoulder robed. They were also fully aware of the fact that Topshop is popular with teenagers hence the PS experience is perfect for the older lady ...

Amazing neck candy

Amazing heels


In a cut throat retail environment where new lines are hitting down at a rate of knots, the Topshop team are offering up their styling services in a tranquil, calm shopping environment away from the shopfloor.




More amazing neck candy

Goody Bags. Why thank you, don't mind if I do.

What's on offer with Topshop Personal Shopping


You can ring up or email them for an appointment and when you arrive the room will be ready to fit your brief. They are doing a lot of hen do and honeymoon wardrobes at the moment. The BIG WOW could be something like a first date, the MIRACLE WORKER shows you how to dress something up and down, and the IN AND OUT is designed for those on a time budget.

What I wore: Zara Top, H&M Trend Jacket, Diesel Jeans, Whistles clutch

My Values

What else? Let me see...I also:
  • Support and work with relevant businesses – no-one can go it alone! 
  • Empower women through my new project launching later this year called Angels Assembled.
  • Give something back by donating 1 day per month to a cause close to my heart. I currently volunteer at the Leeds Community clothing exchange, an awesome event each month which helps has the double whammy of promoting increased community spirit whilst making people more aware of unnecessary consumption at the same time. 
And how do I do all this? What makes me tick?

My Values: 

Stylishly fun, friendly, trustworthy and non-judgemental. Achieving and believing with awesomeness comes as standard!

Here endeth the post!
