Picking Up The Pieces OOTN - Paloma Faith Concert 15th of June


This has been such an exciting post for me to write and show my readers, mainly because this is my first OOTN post along with another first, going to an outdoor concert!

It was back within the month of mother's day when my uncle and partner asked me if I'd like to go to an outdoor concert with them; they've been to a few such as seeing Will Young and Simply Red and always told me how much of a overwhelming experience it is. For them to then say that Paloma Faith will be the one performing I simply said YES! 

I've been a fan of Paloma for years, I adore her vintage sense of style and that she has her own uniqueness about her. It didn't actually sink in that I would be seeing her live till the day came, I had no idea what to wear either! The surrounding was in the forest so I knew I had to be comfy but still represent my own sense of style. So without further a due this was my outfit for the concert!







Cardigan - Primark
Cropped Top - New Look
Denim Pinafore Dress - Primark
Leggings - TopShop
Wedges - TopShop
Hair Bow - Red Herring 

---------------------------------------------

Getting to the venue you could literally feel the atmosphere build, we were grateful that the sun actually stayed out so raincoats were not needed horraahh!!


I was overwhelmed with all the people who arrived, it was lovely to see families come together having picnics and enjoying the sunshine.

Paloma's supporting act was the wonderful Marques Toliver, he started off the concert with songs from his debut album Land Of CanAan. 


I can definitely see why Paloma chose him as her supporting act, Marques had so much passion in his music and got the crowd pumped up for the evening ahead.


After Marques's performance the black curtain fell and revealed Paloma's setting which got me very excited! It was completely her signature look and I couldn't believe she was moments away from being on the stage!


The crowd started to really gather but I tried my best to find the right spot to see her and get a few snaps for you! As you can see she looked absolutely amazing as always, Paloma performed songs from her album, Fall To Grace and made it an emotional and mind blowing night that I shall never forget.

EllieCreation's Day Out At #48HoursOfFashion !



Hello my lovelies! What an amazing time I had over in Nottingham for the #48hoursoffashion weekend; I had heard so much about this up to the big day and I knew for sure that I wanted to go and have a look at the catwalk shows and special events stores were holding, from free consultations to discounts!

My mum kindly came along with me, bless her! So we made a girly day out of it all. Even though she isn't overly fond of fashion like myself, she really did enjoy it especially the catwalk shows.

As it was the Friday, Events and shows started from 12pm we arrived just after and made our way first to the flying horse walk. Stick & Ribbon were holding a style hunter competition and I thought, why not! So i was asked to pose standing on their red carpet and had my photo taken which is now over on their Facebook page! They're looking for the most stylish women in Nottingham with prizes to be won, If you'd like to vote for me or you like my outfit I'd appreciate every thumbs up I receive! If you see this picture then thumbs up!

------------------------------------------------------

Next we had a little visit to Khiel's it was both myself and my mum's first time there and they gladly allowed me to take photos of their fantastic store and displays!







-----------------------------------------------

Then after we went for some lunch and a glass of wine we went over to where the catwalk shows and master classes we're being held. We attended both the show 4 and 6. Of course I had to get pictures of the stunning fashion that was displayed and the wonderful dancers/models that made it a show to remember! 




















---------------------------------------------------

Did you go? And if you did what was your favourite part of the day? Personally I loved the catwalk shows and seeing the new styles and trends! Big thank you for those who worked hard behind the scenes to put this marvellous weekend together! Can't wait for the next one!
