The Bloggers Hangout BLFW Event

This week I was invited along to The Bloggers Hangout BLFW event, in Hoxton, for a fun filled evening of all things fashion, beauty and skin care. As a blogger it’s always fascinating to discover new brands, who each have their own niche, as well as remain committed to firm favourite brands. Having previously been to events run by The Bloggers Hangout, and attended the BLFW event in the prior year, I knew the Bloggers Hangout were not going to disappoint. As predicted the evening was packed with a beauty treatments, discovering new brands, catching up with old and new bloggers, and not forgetting the fashion show itself – which reeled in Spring perfectly by being held outside.
