From Europe With Love....


My Euro Tour with my Fashion Meets Music Brand has been not only challenging but has shown me that you really can achieve anything you want if you put your mind to it.

During my time in London, I've ran a nightclub from its launch, I held my first UK Fashion Meets Music event, I've produced on the Afro Hair & Beauty Show, something I would visit every Bank Holiday whilst I was younger; and I've been blessed to set up and open 5 Pop Up Shops showcasing emerging Designers, Artists and Talent. One of them in Westfield Stratford City, Europes largest Urban Mall. Our initial 6 week contract ended up being extended for 5 months and what a roller coaster ride that was. We will be launching a permanent boutique in Camden Lock showcasing "Real Fashion"on the 2nd May 2014.

Fashion Meets Music was also one of brands chosen to "Pop Up" in Boulevard Berlin for a month. Those who know me know that I have no issues with getting on a flight and moving to another country for whatever reason and this I did with gusto for Germany :-)  For this Pop Up I showcased an Eco Lab Concept. All items being sold are sustainable fashion, ethical, upcycled, deconstructed and most made instore by the creatives.  This mixed with our regular workshops, flashmob fashion shows and in-house DJ which is proving a major hit. We "Pop Down" on 28th April 2014.
