Page 3 Girls....and Boyzzzz.....

Evening....
So before I settle down with the hot water bottle and my new copy of "That's Life" (the cover story I'm most intrigued about is "My Hubby's Willy was Rotting"...nice)...thought I would enlighten you on this little beauty....
So my Mam text me to say..."Oooh you're on page 3!!!!"
Yes...not as shady as it sounds so don't get excited that I'm about to treat you to something scandalous....but its a feature in the 'Sunday Sun' that was published on the eve of the "Emma Bell's Vault for Vauxhall" event....
feast your eyesssss.......
Love and blankets at windows (to keep the arctic drafts out....)

"Emma Bell's Vault for Vauxhall"-The Aftermath!

Afternoon!!!
So finally I have a minute to write and tell you all about what went down on Monday...at the much anticipated "Emma Bell's Vault for Vauxhall" of which I was appointed as Creative Director of with Vauxhall Motors!!!6 weeks of super hard work and the result was most definitely worth it!
So where to start...after a couple of all nighters putting the finishing touches of glitter on props....chasing up the finer details....We were up bright and early at 5am to load all of the goodies into a van (that strangely smelled of beef...gross) driven by a dude called Paulo...
Me and superstar production manager and creative mastermind, Alexis Knox, rocked up to the Vaults at London Bridge with our amazing team (thanks Rosie, Russell, Emma, Eleni,Katie, Lucy, Natasha, Will, Adam...sorry if I forgot anyone!) and prepared for the arrival of candyfloss machines, hot dog man, mystical forests....
The venue is HUGE....400 metres long...with 25 individual vaults!


One of my favourite parts of the day was seeing Will rock his special tree costume...I've never witnessed such a corker of a robe in my life....

So the doors then cracked open to the world of dreams....taken through a darkened maze lit with UV with the spooky sounds of Mario Brothers haunted castle....woooo spooky....I especially had a cheap laugh as I heard people's screams echo down the corridor!
Then the party times began....cupcakes, Lambrini, stilt walkers, candyfloss, hot dogs, a coconut shy and funfair games....hair-do's from a car from the AMAZING Charlie Le Mindu....a corker of a performance from the one and only Scottee....Scottee rocked a beaut of a spangly outfit by Lee Benjamin as he flounced in his ball pool amongst glitter and tinsel....



And now some tropical beats for you to throw some shapes at....
We had celebrity guest DJs in the form of Jodie Harsh, Ebony Bones and Frankmusik....YES PLEASE....



Then came a second chance to see my SS09 collection, as seen on the catwalk at London Fashion Week.....With super special make-up from artist Melissa Lee...hair by Charlie Le Mindu and my amazing models....the clothes trotted their way down a pink glitter catwalk peppered with specially Emma Bell commissioned cars!





This was one of the most exciting and challenging projects that I have ever worked on and I am so happy that it was such a great success!Check out some cheeky snaps......




And of course the extra special Vauxhall cars!!!!




oooh yes...and for your viewing entertainment....what went down after the doors had closed......

Love and Vauxhall Party Times!!

Pumpkin Carving, Rainbow Cupcakes, Fireworks and COCKTAILS!

WOOOOOOOOOOOO HALLOWEEN!!!
The annual ghostly festivites saw me departing London for a magical bash in Hertford courtesy of Gina...although I kept announcing I was going to Kent....I still can't get a grasp of these Southern places despite being away from Up-North for almost 7 years now!!!
So I trotted off on the train to the middle of the countryside and it was nice to have a break away from London Town.....
The evening kicked off with cauldrons of crisps, pizza and pumpkin carving...as well as several gin and tonics!


The next installment of the evening saw us donning our winter wooleys and heading outside for some Britney, Fireworks, Sparklers and a bonfire...as well as a drunk or two rolling around in the mud!!!



My pumpkin!!! Baking Time!!

Then as you can see came my FAVOURITE bit of the night....cake baking!!!
We made some extra special Rainbow Cupcakes....covered in rainbow frosting AND edible glitter!!! The were amazing..........feast your eyes!!!Yum!!!

Movie time.............




The following morning...we all trotted off to a jumble sale.....where the average age of attendees was about 90!!!It was a near on bunfight for the goods....but I mean what can you expect when you can pick up bargains for a mere 10p!!!
The aftermath and the unleashing of the purchases..............

Love and Pumpkins!!!!

What went down...on the eve of Fashion Week!

Can I get a rewinddddddddd..........
ok so, what really went down as we pulled a corker of an all-nighter the evening before my show at London Fashion Week.....
Let me show you....





As we finished sewing, put the final touches of glitter on Dr Martens, Katie frantically was still knitting...we also enjoyed a midnight pizza feast, some whisky....and even set up hair salon in my studio alongside a disco!!!
Myself and Alexis were distraught at the fact we may not have had our hair done in preparation for D-Day...so at around 3am..Charlie Le mindu popped round with his bag of magic and whipped us up special hair-do's for the occasion....Imagine, cold water, a kitchen sink and a stinky tea towel....corker indeed!!Alexis also decided now was the time to throw out her favourite French "Tectonic" dance moves complete with a head full of bleach!!! Entertain yourself with the video above....eekers!

It was all fun and games I tell you...with a lot of stress thrown in for good measure!

Mel puts the finishing crystals on! Jackee and a magical midnight feast!



Katie drops the knitting needles! Finishing touches to the footwear!



Yep...so there you have it!!Fun, frolics and heart attacks in the studio of dreams!!!

Love and PIZZA TIMES!
