Marian Kihogo’s Party Column // Cupcakes, Crushes, Cranberry coolers and Models
After a day of back to back appointments, I made a quick beeline to Selfridges to pick something up for a client. While there I ducked into the toilets and swapped my day heels for an even higher, hotter pair and did the mandatory lippie and perfume top up.
These heels are not made for walking
Since it was taking forever to hail a cab, I shimmied my way down to the Sapphires Model Management Launch at The Sanderson on Berners Street. So I stated that the heels were hotties but I never said anything about them being comfortable…
Be still my beating heart
What do you get when you blend up cocktails, gorgeous models, a chic interior and a year’s supply of cupcakes?
It was a concoction that was enough to make a girl swoon in delight.
Chitter Chatter
In between Cranberry coolers and being tempted by insanely gorgeous cupcakes I mingled and discussed the merits of wearing shorts by night, why a trip to South Africa is a must do, the issue of models freezing while on location shoots, Courtney Blackman of the Fashion Business Club’s super sexy backless Aqua dress (she is my new girl crush!) and the pros and cons of working as a stylist.
I caught up with Neely Reyes (who looked stunning I’ll have you know!) and Ian Warren, the managing partners of Sapphires Model Management. Their well established Midlands based agency has now been launched in London. Here is to wishing them many delightful adventures down here in London!
I also spotted beautiful illustrator, Daisy de Villeneuve who looked absolutely smouldering in a siren red meets wine lip shade.
All in a night’s work
Sadly I soon had to call it a night due to a crazy early appointment looming the next day.
Thinking back on the night as my cab sped away, I could not help but wonder if I should have perhaps gotten that Cranberry cooler recipe and the name of Daisy’s oh so sultry lipstick shade…
