Last Friday I had the opportunity to attend the House of Fashion event in Leeds. The House of Fashion event was a catwalk show organised by the local House of Fraser that featured makeup artists, a fashion runaway, raffles and the cutest pink goodie bags. House of Fraser have always been one of my favourite department stores. The staff are always lovely, they have a great selection of clothing and cosmetics and I love the history of their own label Biba.
I attended the event with a few of my blogger friends and it was a great start to the weekend, as well as a fabulous finish to my first week of work. The catwalk featured a selection of clothing from House of Fraser stocked brands such as French Connection, Whistles, Biba and many more.
I loved how the collections went from the simplest outfit formations such as jeans and a t-shirt to elaborate dresses and fun flirty evening wear. This shawl really grabbed my attention with it's exotic prints which clashed elegantly with the tailored trousers. It was two items of clothing that shouldn't really go together, but worked so well.
Unfortunately due to the timings, I was unable to see the second half. The break was longer than anticipated and I had a train to catch. However, what I saw of the event was fabulous and made me fall in love with House of Fraser even more, which I never thought was possible.
Have you been to any fashion events lately?
I love House of Fraser too. If I could afford to, I would only shop there.
