XOXO Valentine Trunk Show at Wolf & Badger, 11 February

Open!

This past Saturday Amanda hosted my first trunk show at Wolf &Badger's flagship boutique in Notting Hill. The temperatures outside were sub-zero, but that did not stop the many who braved the inhospitable weather to be 'warmed' by the chilled champagne and sweet chocolates. 

It was wonderful afternoon having the chance to present her XX collection to clients, give a preview of her new Asteroid collection (shhh...it's a secret), as well as hold a prize for a pair of mini xx earrings (congratulations to the winner, Edward T!).

Also, Amanda extends a huge thank you to the amazing staff at Wolf & Badger. They were extremely helpful and supportive throughout the process - from pre-show planning, on the day all-hands-on-deck, to post-show wrap up. Not sure how I would have managed without them!

Amanda is already looking forward to hosting my next trunk show. Champagne, chocolate, and jewellery have definitely proven to be a nice way to spend an afternoon.

 Champagne and chocolates.
