Not only did I have the pleasure of modelling during the day, I was asked by the lovely team at Scarlett & Jo to model in their evening catwalk.
Whereas the day time catwalk was about our own hair and makeup (although if we wanted to, there was a team of MUA to help us out), the evening show had the theme of Hollywood glamour, and a team of 3 MUA to work their magic.
MrsBeBe looking effortlessly glamorous, oozing sex appeal.
There was a lot of waiting around, either for there to be a slot free with the MUAs, or waiting for our hair to set, or just waiting. This was a bless though, as it meant I got to spend quality time with the beauties that were my fellow models:
Now, any normal social situation, that involved me sitting there with no make up on, and surrounded by ladies I've admired for a great while, would have had me retreat into a bubble - but this bunch of beauties? Well:
When my dress for the evening wasn't enough to contain my boobs, I tried a little improvisation to sort out the problem:
Using an ear stud - but this wasn't enough for the chief designer, so a quick tacking and it was all fixed!
Now, Hollywood glamour, to me, means soft waves, or pin up style rolls, not really much they can do with my short hair:
Ooooh, I was wrong! I felt very Chicago-esque with my sleeked down hair and red lips. I was set!!
I loved meeting the gorgeous Kim, and spending some time with Emma, as well as a chance to chat properly with Betty, from Pamper and Curves. I first met her at the main event, but as I was begging her for a favour, I wanted to make a better 2nd impression!
Rachel and I opened the show, as we were both in versions of the same dress:
My fellow models made this a joyous experience, where we supported and encouraged each other throughout the whole event:
I would like to thank the team at Scarlett & Jo for this complete one-off opportunity. I can't ever imagine having this empowering, sexy and confidence-boosting experience again.
Unless of course, I wear one of these powerfit dresses in the office, and treat every trip to the canteen as my own personal catwalk that is!
Much love my lovelies,

You all look fabulous! Bummed I couldn't come to the evening event, looks like you had an amazing time. There is always next year though!
