Forget Your Troubles, Come On Get Happy...

So Saturday was The Blitz Party and it was utterly incredible. Descending into the Shoreditch bunker, kitted out with sandbags, flags and all the usual wartime paraphernalia, was literally like taking a step back in time. With the exception of the odd mobile phone and, of course, people wapping out their cameras, it felt as authentic as one would imagine possible in the middle of London in 2010.
As the swing band played everyone got merry on a mix of sheer excitement and exceedingly large measures and after the first 45minutes I decided to put my camera away and get lost in the spirit of it all (that's me above). I'm writing a piece on the night for my magazine so I'm keeping most of my pics under wraps but I thought it only fair to include a little taster of some of my favourite looks from the night...
If you like the idea of an evening of frivolous wartime shenanigans then tickets are already on sale for the next event in May but be quick as they sell out notoriously fast. For more details just click HERE. Now, bubble burst and back in the real world, I'm off to summon up a few thousand words and get my dissertation finished by the Thursday deadline. Yikes. Wish me luck!

You look so dapper! I'm organizing a similar event for the art museum here in PHX- it's for the opening of the next fashion exhibit which is all war era style. You've given me a ton of inspiration!
