Mr Brainwash + David Guetta


 Last Wednesday I went with my boyfriend and a few friends to Mr Brainwash and David Guetta's party, although it was meant to be Mr Brainwash's preview of his exhibition (it will stay for a month in the old post office in Oxford St, London, now looking more like a nightclub).
We thought it would be super easy to get inside with our VIP passes but... there was a massive VIP queue (I seriously didn't expect that)!! Luckily we got inside pretty quick after a few calls :)
We had lots of free champagne, absolutely great music and I admired some Egg chairs in pink fabric (I wish I could have taken one home!!). I saw Mr Brainwash just a few cm close and David Guetta did appear after an hour of good music played by another DJ, although he had left the best bits for him, of course!
It was a great night and I felt so privileged to be there.
I leave you with some photos (sorry about the bad quality!)...


 David Guetta reminding me of the Power Rangers.



 Burn seemed to be sponsoring the event. In the other photograph you can see the VIP area and one of the Egg chairs.


 Some looked a bit out of place.



 I think I might have been the only one who noticed the Jack Union flag colours in the lights...


 David Guetta!!

Rings and allergies

Attempt to draw a hand

On February I noticed the weather was getting warmer (yay!) and it was time to rescue my beloved rings and say goodbye to my gloves (athough it's March and I still wear them sometimes). Well after having a look at them I thought it was time to buy at least a new one, as I haven't added any to my collection since...mmm... maybe 3 or 4 years ago!! I have to say I always find myself spending a little fortune on a ring because I'm allergic to any cheap metal, so it has to be silver, gold plated, white gold or whatever is expensive!
It has taken me weeks to find one that has a big stone (but lets me move my fingers, very important) and that doesn't clash too much with my other rings. I found it in Ottoman Hands, in Topshop Oxford Street. It's handmade with semi precious stones and in gold plated bronze. And it looks Egyptian or something old. Good.
