Party like it's 1945!

After getting back from Paris it was time to start getting ready for The Blitz Party!  A party under train arches in Shoreditch, themed as 1940's war time.  After searching through the vintage clothings shops and coming up with nothing my flatmate had a Next dress in her closet that was 1940's tea dress style and fit perfectly! Out came the red lipstick and an attempt was made to create Victory rolls in my hair. Not as easy as it looks despite the many You Tube tutorials I watched. 

There were lots of men in uniform. Nathan and Jon who we met just before the end of the night (I had let my hair down at this point).  

The night finished in 2009 style at the Kebab shop in Camden. 

Out on the town.

In London there is always something going on, and the Christmas season is doubly busy.  Below are some pictures of my first birthday in London spent with friends in one of my favourite bars in Notting Hill, as well as some of the Christmas parties, there was 4 work ones in total. 

Trailer Happiness, a kitsch basement bar I really like in Notting Hill, it reminds me of hanging out in friends basements in Canada, notice the wood panel walls. 

The Volcano drink, they light it on fire for you, very dramatic.

Some of the Sky Sports girls and I at the  Football department Christmas party.
