In my previous life, I use to go to these sorts of things, but after about 10 years of being off the fashion radar, I was a self conscious nervous wreck. (mistake number 2)
At least I got my dress made in time, and Jennie looked the part in her Miss Moneypenny dress. |
The jewellery was amazingly beautiful |
Beautiful Bianca eyeing off 21st birthday present ideas. |
And I spent the evening trying to not to get eye contact with people I used to know How silly am I? I didn't speak to one person, not even the owners of Surround (check them out here), who had sent the invitation. Because of my social awkwardness, people probably think I'm an incredibly rude snob (big mistake number3) How hard is it to actually go up to someone and shake their hand and introduce yourself?!? Aaargh I'm so mad at myself Anyway, I have another thing to go to this Friday. Pozible's 3rd birthday party at Hub. So I need a new dress, and a complete personality makeover. Easy. I'll let you all know how it goes. |
I was meant to attend too but couldn't in the last minute- glad you had so much fun, it's always to know others there :D

Thank you very much. A reader from Milan! I'm chuffed.
ReplyDeleteI was supposed to visit but I was overseas, sad because I love Goldie. Don't be mad at yourself, there's always a next time so make that count :)
