Over the weekend we were lucky enough to be invited to the Metrocentre 'Fashion Live' Fashion show and felt it the perfect occasion to take our new neon purchases out for a spin.

It was such an impressive event, the staging for the show was fantastic and they even had a styling pod with stylists on hand in case you wanted a little wardrobe advice/ revamp- had we not been so flustered we may well have got involved, there were some beautiful pieces there!

We were treated so well and given some wonderful goodie bags and front row seats for the show.

The Metrocentre is the biggest shopping centre in Europe, its sheer magnitude is beyond impressive and the shops it houses are some of our favourites - Zara playing a large part in that!

 Having it in our home city and being asked to attend the show and be part of it was a real honour for us.

 Thank you so much to Sally and the girls for making us feel so welcome and giving us the best seats in the house.

The weather here has been absolutely insane these past few days. Last week we were donning our brightest hues in 23 degree climates and yesterday, snow?!

So today, in a bid to be prepared (or as prepared as one can be) we both, unknowingly to one another, went for the old, polo neck under the T-shirt, option.

Showcased by the Celine AW11 collection, this is a look we are both familiar with. Having grown up in the North East, we were subjected to layers upon layers as children to prevent us from 'catching our death'...suppose old habits die hard.

Speaking of death, we were under similar threat today when we were chased off the industrial estate we perched ourselves on for these snaps... lesson learnt? Never assume the unassuming are friendly. (Oh, and watch out for sandwich vans... they don't stop!)

Today is Twicetheblogger Lisa's birthday! So how did we celebrate? By buying balloons and laughing until we cried of course! Donning pastel and neon get-ups we were all a glow with the happiness of spring... we both have a tendency to favour the summer months due to the versatility of the clothes, although if this years AW collections are anything to go by, that could soon change (Louis Vuitton pink embellished jackets are firmly on our lust list!) There really is nothing better than spending special days with the people you love most in the world... now one of us is off to get spoilt rotten (deservedly) and the other is off to figure out the perfect birthday present for the latter.
