So being a journo really ain’t all that bad… Last Friday I
got to go along to Girls Day out to see what all the fuss is about. It took the
SECC by storm in May and returned for a Christmas spectacular last weekend to
treat the ladies of Glasgow to a little pampering…and a day away from their
men.
Yes the event is totally cliché as it lives up to everything
men would like to tease us over about being stereotypical bimbos; hair, nails, shopping
and spray tans but come on, who doesn’t love a little preening and retail therapy.
 |
| Pamper Time - This lovely lady was spoiling herself, as called for by the day, to a classic french manicure |
 |
| Eyebrows.... Loved Beautiful Brows home eyebrow kit - one of the easiest ones to use that i've ever and stays on even when you gym and swim ladies! |
 |
| Concessions from House of Fraser provided the ladies a chance to refresh their winter wardrobes |
It truly was a Venusian spectacular of pink, champagne,
topless men, glitter and indulgence – It’s the nearest I may ever get to
heaven.
So yes, I grabbed the opportunity with my newly manicured hands and rejoiced in the first day dedicated to a weekend of women only (except for the men who were there to serve us as eye candy) and I bloody well loved it.
 |
| These young ladies were extremely happy with the view... |
 |
| I could probably fit all my stuff in here, yes. |
 |
| I don't even thing Gaga could handle these |
 |
| Now that's my kind of drink |
 |
| Wonder if they sell these in Ikea for my flat... |

| Butlers in the Buff.... Hired |
A round of applause should be given to the event director,
Tom Lovering’s, wife – she gave him the idea to fill a space with everything any
women could ever need and let us take serenity, even if only for one day, in
not having to go to a million different places to give ourselves a slice of
pleasure.
With over 200 exhibitors my eye’s grew bigger than my purse.
They had really thought of everything from teeth whitening to tooth decay with
chocolate fountains and designer cupcakes.
 |
| The lovely Girls at 5pm who were there offering the ladies some of the best deals around for dining out, leisure, health and beauty! |
 |
| Fast Cars - I'll have me one of these please.. make it two |
 |
| Casino's - A little Vegas glamour |
 |
| Cocktails and champers - provided all weekend long by Royal Exchange Squares One Up |
No doubt about it, I had a fabulous day with all my pampering, freebies (compliments to Boots - loves a freebie) and cocktails... I'm just struggling to remember how I got home...
The show is set to return after the New Year and make an appearance in Edinburgh and down south... make sure you Fashion Smartie's keep an eye out for the next one.
