What I wore: Hall of Fame 2011

Hi all! How are you doing? I have missed keeping up with your blogs this last week. Sweet FA was last Weds (it was great but SO much work - pics soon!!), then on Friday I had a black tie dinner with work. It's an annual event (this is what I wore last year) and is always great fun with plenty of wine. The College I work for inducts famous / successful alumnus into their Hall of Fame each year. This year fashion designer Collette Dinnigan was one of the inductees - she was BEAUTIFUL and also really down to earth when she gave her speech. Her clothes have been worn by almost every fabulous celebrity (eg Halle Berry, Taylor Swift, Nicole Richie, Kate Bosworth, Charlize Theron, Jessica Simpson, Jennifer Aniston etc etc!!)

This is what I wore this year:
Dress, Portmans; Shoes, Matalan; Clutch, gift from sister; Earrings and bangles, Diva.

Me with some of my colleagues all dress up! Check out Jeannette's collar, it is a one of a kind handmade piece - fabulous!!


Things got quite messy afterwards and ended up with a VERY SORE HEAD the next day. I stayed in my pjs until gone 3pm!!! Bad times :)
How was your weekend?

PS Two weeks today I will be sat on a plane HALF WAY HOME to Wales!! WOW!!!
