I’ll stress again that I’m not a fashion blogger but hey, I’m still a girl and I love to shop. Therefore I couldn’t resist a little sneak peak at the SS14 collection from House of Fraser at the Ivory in Belfast the other night.

It was a lovely evening, we had the whole place too ourselves so we could wander round and check out samples from the likes of Dickens & Jones and Mary Portas

 

 

There were of course a couple of lovely cocktails too!

 

I also happen to run into the lovely Mrs Brenda Shankey of Jason Shankey’s fame. She was there demonstrating the speedy blow dry that the company are laughing. It will have you going from this…

 

Via this…

To this!

 

I absolutely swear that took no longer than five minute and I felt like a movie star having two people work on my hair at once.

The speedy blow dry will be coming soon to the Shankey salon. It’ll be a god-send for busy women town, particularly those who have a do to go to and don’t want ‘office hair’ at it. I was hugely impressed.

I believe there will be even more to come from the Shankeys including masterclasses on how to style and curl your own hair. To keep up to date the website is here.
