Event: AX Paris AW14 Press Day.


It had felt like ages since I last visited Manchester so it was quite nice to hop on an easterly-heading train for a change of scenery to check out AX Paris' AW14 collection. After a little confusion over which of Manchester's many Black Dog Ballrooms the event was being held, we finally arrived at the correct and rather trendy-looking venue to be greeted with a fashion blogger's favourite things; cocktails, cupcakes and lots and lots of clothes. With an 'AX Paris Floozy' in hand, one of my first stops (after the cupcakes) was over to the henna tattoo lady who painted a beautiful design on my hand which I later managed to smudge on my best white blazer (can't take me anywhere), before heading over to the photobooth and surpising myself with my ability to ruin a perfectly good set of photos with some beautiful fellow bloggers with the ridiculous faces I can pull. That's enough floozies, Frances.

It looks like AX Paris are getting us ready for party season with new collections full of jewel tones, sequins, lace and embellishments. I may have fallen a little head over heels with the rose print dress and the cosy-looking fur coat pictured above, neither of which I really need (woe is me). However, if you would like to purchase them for me or for yourself they will be winging their way to the AX Paris website soon!
My attention was momentarily averted from my fur coat-lust when I finally reached the food table which was laiden with enough sliders, pizzas and fries to feed a small army (of fashion bloggers). AX Paris, you know the way to a hungry girl's heart ;)

Thank you to AX Paris for a great afternoon and for sending us away with an amazingly generous goodie bag! It was lovely to catch up with some of my favourite Manchester ladies as well as chat to a few new faces! Leaving some blog love below <3
