The Clothes Show Live Birmingham





Last Saturday I went to the Clothes Show Live in Birmingham, which was amazing but very busy as you can see from my photos! As you may have heard on Twitter I have broken my fingers playing netball so am finding it really hard to type and write at the moment so it will be a brief review and lots of photos instead!

The show was excellent (despite a very rude steward who worked at the NEC making us move seats mid-show!) and was set to a Winter Wonderland theme, which included a lot of half-naked, yummy men to the delight of the screaming girls in the crowd. My favourite area of the show was the Pink Zone, which was where all the beauty stands where. I particularly enjoyed seeing Tara Smith styling a competition winner's hair and offering her expert tips. Jeff Brazier was also there for Reveal Magazine, although they were not giving away or selling copies of the magazine… weird! I also love the Jelly Pong Pong goodie bag that were £12, which is a great way to try out new products at a much cheaper price! I was gutted that All Saints weren’t there as I got some good bargains last time, maybe they will be back next year! I got some really nice clothes in the Purple Zone, which was so busy all day with people everywhere – I think that they let too many people into the show as I don’t remember previous years being so busy. The Clothes Show in London was so much nicer and quieter, cooler and in an excellent venue unlike the NEC which I dislike more and more every year!

Anyway I managed to get some nice, individual presents for Christmas and recommend anyone who loves bargain fashion and beauty buys to visit in London next year (4th – 6th June 2010) or Birmingham (3rd – 8th December 2010).

I went on monday, my first time in years and it had really improved. Absolutely loved the "Vintage Village" and all my purchases were from there.

All those who are willing to purchase Coach Purses
, bag or clutches should try to find the discount vouchers that ranges from 10 % to 25 %. Such vouchers enable the client to save hundred dollars on purchasing the handbag.
Another idea for reaping the benefit of Coach Gallery
is to visit a store or the website during off-season.
There are few coach websites on internet that offer outlet coupons that can be printed as well. These outlets also offer some shopping programs that enable the access of the clients to many promotions and exclusive sales. The winner of Coach Hamptons
has the choice of using these discounts at any Coach Legacy
store.
as gift but are unable to do so at regular stores for cash.
