Clothes Show Live 2011 - Diet Coke catwalk

Here are the first of the many Clothes Show Live photos from Sunday. These are from the Diet Coke image catwalk show, which was featured almost every hour and usually followed by a graduate fashion show (photos coming soon).

Clothes Show Live tomorrow!

Whoop whoop! It may involve a super early train journey with an awkward number of changes, but tomorrow, I'll be at Birmingham NEC for my first visit to Clothes Show Live, accompanied by the lovely Charlotte Gay. A very big thank you to my sister and stepsister for the tickets, their gift to me for my birthday.


Sadly, however, a confusion when buying the tickets means Charlotte and I may miss the fashion theatre show, since we won't be arriving in time for the performance listed on our tickets. It's a little disappointing, but we'll try to exchange our platinum seats for standard seats scheduled at a later time. Charlotte, who has been twice before, has also assured me that there is plenty more to do and see than just the show.

For my attire, I will once again be adorning my terracotta blazer, as you can see from the close-up above. You'll get to see the full outfit from Monday, when I'll post the first of the many photos I plan on taking. I even have my Grandad's 100-300mm telephoto lens to grab the best of the action.

Spit Happens - BAMMJ charity gig, 12th December

Okay, not necessarily a fashion-related event, but it'll certainly be an occasion for which to dress up! I just want to draw your attention to this little shin-dig of a gig my journalism course is organising, with performances from a number of acts, including yours truly.

During yesterday's recording of the BAMMJaid charity gig
The gig is in aid of blood cancer charity 'Anthony Nolan', which aims to save the lives of those with blood cancer through blood stem cell and bone marrow transplants. The event will be taking place at The Winchester pub on Poole Hill, Bournemouth, and will include nine musical acts as well as a performance of the 'BAMMJaid' Christmas single - our rendition of Band Aid's 'Do They Know It's Christmas?'

As for me, I'll be singing Elton John's 'Your Song' (not by myself, mind you - I'm not that brave!), while wearing something smart and colourful most likely. It's been a long while since I donned a brightly coloured tie, although I may find I'll need some room to breathe around my collar if I am to be singing on stage.

As the venue is not huge, tickets are limited, but if you are in Bournemouth on the evening of Monday 12th December, advanced tickets - which are on sale from the TARDIS in the Bournemouth University Media School foyer, 1pm-2pm every weekday - are £3.50, whilst on-the-door tickets will be £5.

If you're attending, fantastic, and I will see you there. You can expect me to be taking lots of photos during the evening - that is until I've drowned my post-performance shakes with cocktails and vodka mixers.
