We’re hardly short of events in Scotland at the moment. It’s all Commonwealth, MTV and oh, obviously Prince. While all of those things are MEGA exciting, what’s really got me going are the local events. Pop up boutiques, multi-sensory dining and fire walk fashion shows. It’s pretty much all going down. IN THE NEXT COUPLE OF WEEKS. Here’s my top picks of what’s on offer.
Jelly & Gin: Create Eat Whisky
I definitely spend more money on food than I do clothes. My favourite thing is to go out for dinner and try new things so Jelly & Gin’s experimental whisky dining experiencing is totally my bag. It’s all a bit Heston with sounds, sights and experiences being just as important as the food itself. Set in the old Nestle Condensed Milk Factory in Leith, this pop up dining experiencing is essential for foodies and whisky buffs alike. Buy tickets here!
Obscure Couture: Fashion In Flames
Local favourites, Obscure Couture launch their new collection with a fire walk runway this Saturday. Other than raising money for chairty (HEARTS O PURE GOLD) there will be fire performances, drinks and eats. Hit this up if you like fashion,folk and fire.
Saturday 17th May – tickets available via itison
MB Hair: Blo Bar Launch
I have been DYING for a Blo Bar to come to Glasgow so as MB Hair launches their new salon, they also rock up with their new Blo Bar. It’s perfect for someone who has more bad hair days than good ones and can’t wait to get a wee joosch. They have a public opening this Saturday from 10-5 so if you fancy popping by for something sparkly and a Blo Dry drop by to 166 Buchanan Street across from the Hard Rock Cafe.
Designer Pop Up Boutique
MUST GO TO EDINBURGH. My favourite, Karen Mabon has teamed up with some other mega babes for a sample sale in Edinburgh next week. Although pennies are tight I think I can just about make it through for this. It’s the only truly right thing to do right? Hit up 125 George Street on the 22nd of May and make sure your pockets are DEEP ladies!
I don’t know about you but I’m trying my darndest to get along to every single one of these beauties. Will you be popping along to any?
