Minnie's Boutique Pop-up Shop in Cabot Circus, Bristol with Sam and Billie Faiers!

Saturday 2 February 2013

Last night I was invited to the VIP opening of the Minnie's Boutique pop-up shop in Cabot Circus. Minnie's Boutique is a family run business which stocks lots of amazing brands including MinkPink, Sugarhill Boutique, Reverse, and Voodoo Girl Couture. Their main store is suitated in Brentwood, Essex, but this weekend (Feb 2-3) they have a pop-up store in Bristol!

 Billie was wearing a yummy oversized Reverse jumper & Sam wore a cute Sugarhill Boutique sundae sweater.

If you're a TOWIE fan, you'll be happy to know the girls will be in store to sign autographs and meet fans. I was really surprised by how lovely they are, they're honestly two of the nicest girls I've ever (briefly) met! If you're not a fangirl and just a regular fashionista like me, rest assured they've brought a fantastic range with them.

We were treated to nibbles & fizz.

There was plenty of leopard print, faux leather and lace on display, basically all of my favourite things. I did have my eye on an beautiful leather fringed skirt but had to resist because it was a bit too pricey for me, a girl can dream...

When I was introduced to the girls the first thing they mentioned was my MinkPink dress! They said it was an extremely popular style in their store and completely sold out (great minds, eh?). We got talking about their stock (and our shared love of MinkPink) and we all gushed about Voodoo Girl Couture. If you aren't familiar with the brand, you soon will be because it's about to take over. Jade & I both have something awesome of theirs which we will be blogging about tomorrow & next week, so stay tuned! 

Voodoo Girl Couture LOOOVE.

Sam & Billie said they source all the stock with the help of their mum (how nice?) and I have to say I love their style. I've never watched an episode of TOWIE so I didn't know what to expect but these are 2 seriously sweet and stylish girls. They asked me about my blog and how long I've been blogging and were genuinely interested in everything I had to say. Everyone who was working there is either a family member or a family friend and it's obvious this means a lot to them.

I had an awesome evening and now I'm tempted to watch the old TOWIE episodes just to see these girls again! When we left we were given a goodie bag which included a Minnie's diary, lipgloss and of course, some Fake Bake fake tan. So cute.

If you live in Bristol (or close), I definitely recommend getting your shop on in Minnie's Boutique this weekend. It's close to Dwell's and Starbucks in Cabot Circus. If you do go, please let me know what you buy! For all those who live too far away to get their Essex fix, their online store also has some pretty awesome stock.

  3. I absolutely love the fox print sheer top! That is definitely going on my wish list! I love that all their stuff has a slight edge to it. Not what you would have expected from the TOWIE girls. Will definitely be having a look at their store. BTW you look gorg again in your cute dress! Love the hat!
