You are getting sleepy… Sleeepy…. Sleeepy… No, you’re not. How can you fall asleep if a Bvlgari pendant is moving just in front of your eyes? I was fortunate enough to be exposed to this brand ever since childhood. This has allowed to me to claim my share of Bvlgari jewellery from my mum when I hit 16.

Just like Tiffany’s, Van Cleef & Arpels, Cartier et al, Bvlgari is a brand to covet, lust over, dream about and save up for. It has been worn by too many celebrities and presidents’ wives to list in one blog piece. I believe former first lady of France, Carla Bruni, is now the face of the brand.

However, when it comes to the brand, there is one thing that I’d like to make clear. Everyone who is trying to break their tongues pronouncing “bvlgari” can stop right now – and I know these people exist, I was offered to experience “b-ff-lgari’s” latest scent in a perfume shop. So stop, just stop. The “V” is a “U” in accordance to the classic Latin alphabet and should be read as that. While I am explaining stuff, here’s another fact to be aware of: Bvlgari is an Italian brand and it means “Bulgarians” or people of “Bulgarian decent”.

The brand has expanded massively; it’s not only jewellery it excels in anymore. These days it’s also wristwatches, hotels, perfume and other luxury goods.

A word of caution though, Bvlgari is up there with Chanel, Louis Vuitton and Rolex; the brand is a victim of counterfeiters world wide. How to avoid fakes? If the offer is too good to be true and the seller pronouces it as “b-ff-lgari”, just say no.

Ah, H&M. Everyone loves a bit of H&M. The ones who don’t love a bit of H&M are obsessed with the brand instead. And who can blame them; from absolutely spectacular designer collaborations to publicly revealing their stance on ethical fashion, this brand has targeted each and every fashion consumer. Talk about great marketing strategies.

But that’s not what I am here to discuss (although I like giving credit where it is due); instead I would like to talk to you about attending the H&M PFW screening in London party. Equipped with the funkiest drink mixers, a fun-lovin’ DJ and even an artist who was transforming the attendees into their animated selves (that’s how she animated me in the snap – I didn’t even pose), the event was definitely something to remember.

The collection itself looked like the lovechild of Helmut Lang and Celine, extremely relaxed Parisian chic, so chilled out in fact, it looked almost careless but remained tasteful. Basically a look only Parisians excel in and the rest of the world is still learning to master. I spied out a few pieces that I’d love to wear for no-brainer kind of days. Because I seem to have more and more of those. So yeah, that white fuzzy dress, come to mama.

Thanks H&M for having me over!

I have never played Musical Bingo before. But when the guys at Costa Bingo invited myself and some fellow bloggers to partake in such an exciting activity – how could I say no? Besides, I have been meaning to visit Concrete in Shoreditch for quite a long time; there’s always been so much hype about this place with keen celebrity visitors and famous regulars.

It was all what I expected of course: cheesiness, champagne as well as stage and table dancing. Bloggers are known for many things but being overly timid is not one of them, cue the all-of-the-sudden-I-remember-all-the-lyrics-to-every-love-song moments.

And so, do I recommend playing Musical Bingo? Hell yes! Grab your friends, enemies and frenemies and head to the next venue where this event is taking place. Come with your parents. Heck, take grandma with. It’s an alternative activity that’s fun for any age.
