I can finally post this now after I managed to upload my Vlog of the day onto my Youtube channel yesterday. I wanted to show you pictures of this stunner alongside footage of my wearing it, so here we are. Gorgeous Couture were kind enough to sponsor my End of Year Ball event at the University of Manchester. As I am part of the ‘Social’ team at work, it meant that I could help to organise the Ball, that brought all years together for a huge formal event to celebrate the year. That meant that I needed an incredible dress, and I knew that Gorgeous Couture would have something spectacular.

I wore this black, one shoulder, floor length ball gown with a Swarovski embellished sash and a thigh high leg split. So so stunning but with this extra bit of sexy that I just loved. They unfortunately do not sell this particular style anymore, but you are sure to find something similar on the website if youre planning a really big event.

Other big thankyou’s for the night go to Umberto Giannini who treated myself and my flat mate Rebecca to two wonderful hairstyles. Rebecca went with a huge back combed side bun whilst I went for a loose curl style with twisted side sections around the back and over the curls. We both were so pleased and they turned out exactly as we imaged. The salon is stunning and the guys are amazing at what they do, so if youre looking for a new salon in the Manchester area, I truly recommend the Umberto Salon in Harvey Nichols.

We were also given a fantastic ride with Uber, a taxi service that is all sorted and payed for through an app. Such a brilliant idea and so glad one of these services has come to Manchester finally. The service is also cheaper than black cabs and can rival my most used cheapest taxi firm, so in future I am using Uber only. The Uber drivers are so so lovely, extra keen to help and so friendly, I cant say more positive things! If you live in the UK and fancy riding in an Uber cab for free, you can use my Code INTHEFROW20 to get you £20 off up to two rides, so pretty much, you get two £10 rides for free or a £20 journey somewhere all paid for. So download the app now, its honestly so much better than cash paid cabs. 
Other thank you’s have to go to Girl Meets Dress and Missguided, who both sponsored the event and treated our students to some discount codes so they could get themselves an amazing outfit. Girl Meets Dress is a hire service, perfect for treating yourself to a designer dress for the night, knowing you can send it back the next day hassle free. Missguided also set up a Social Butterfly page which our students could choose dresses from, so big thank you’s to both companies!
Heres my Vlog from the whole day and the evening if you’d like to see what we got up to. Such a brilliant night… I just wish I remembered all of it.
