On Thursday 30th April I attended the Havetolove fashion show which was held at Livello on Dean Street in Newcastle. I attended this event with a lovely friend and I knew it was in aid of charity and it was hosted by Havetolove.
A little background on Havetolove.... they are an online fashion retailer with a store in Gosforth. They stock labels from celebs such as Lauren Pope, Charlotte Crosby & Millie Mackintosh.The fashion show was to help raise funds for Ladies In Pink Scarves & Maggie's Trust.
Okay so on entering we firstly had our photograph taken.. As it happened I knew the photographers, Kathryn Gribben & Tony Thorpe. The place was so busy and it was great to see such a lovely turn out for a local event. It was a pretty tight squeeze as the catwalk was alongside the bar so we waited a while and listened to the live acoustic music & then we grabbed a drink. Then after a while the fashion show was introduced and the founder of Maggie's Trust & Ladies in Pink Scarves & she told us the background of both charities. You can read about them HERE. So beautiful so please donate & help if you can! They were selling raffle tickets as people were arriving ready for a lovely raffle at the end & there was also a silent auction with some really cool prizes.
Then the catwalk commenced... Seeing pieces from Havetolove, Lauren Pope & Charlotte Crosby it was a really enjoyable time watching the different pieces. There was some gorgeous stuff that I'd love to add to my summer wardrobe including a stunning boho shirt dress & a gorgeous monochrome swing dress.

It was a lovely event and was great to watch as I knew a few of the models. So after the catwalk was done they announced the winners of the raffle and told us about the pieces. There was a pop up shop at the back of the room so you could check out the lines and buy if something caught your eye.
I have to say it really was a great night spent with a close friend and the fashion overload always puts a smile on my face!
