On Thursday I was invited to my first ever pr show thanks to a very good
friend. What can I say about the whole event apart from the fact that
it was amazing, a fantastic showcase of what John Lewis has to offer. I
would highly recommend getting a catalogue or logging onto the website
and emerging yourself in the spectacular choices offered.
It
was all about Christmas stock, I am a true lover of Christmas and was
very excited to be part of this event. There were also members of each
department on hand to talk about anything that you wanted including YSL
and NARS. I am a complete stickler for homeware and spent a lot of my
evening looking at the beautifully decorated trees and the layouts of
throws and pillows. A toy section, Including a new furby, was also featured.
Everyone
at the event was helpful, friendly and welcoming. The atmosphere was
just electric and everyone I met from Directors to bloggers were lovely.
If I had infinite riches I would probably spend all my money in John
Lewis.I had my first try of Estee Lauder sensuous
nude perfume, which I had a sample of and have used a lot since, the
initial smell is very much like talcum powder to me but after it settles
I can smell hints of blueberry and sherbert. I also have a few
samples to try including YSL's Touche Eclat foundation, but will be
reviewing them at a later date. The new Andy Warhole collection for NARS
make up range is simply stunning, the design is sleek and the quotes on
the mirrors are inspirational.
The homeware is very modern
and Chic and the lack of bright colors is perfect for me, There were
very traditional options from pinecone candles to silver star ornaments
and on the other end of the scale, very oriental style choices of little
dolls and cherry blossoms. John Lewis is filled with
items that are beautiful and stunning and give me inspiration to create a
better looking home, I will definitely spend even more hours looking
around the next time I am in Cardiff.
