Lunchtime Escapes With Warehouse

Now that the summer weather has well and truly hit Liverpool, it's time to start planning what on earth I am going to wear to look cute but not die in this 30 degree heat! At the beginning of the month, I got the chance to attend the Lunchtime Escapes event with Warehouse in Liverpool One, hosted by the lovely Frankie Graddon and Dolly Alderton from The Pool. 

Warehouse Liverpool decided to host their first in-store event ever, whilst this wasn't exclusively a blogger event, it was open to anyone that wanted to buy a ticket. Their first event was actually part of three events throughout the UK. The lovely Frankie and Dolly from The Pool were hosting the event and had designed their own fashion edit comprised of their favourite items from Warehouse's current summer collection. As well as the fashion edit, Warehouse also kindly provided bento box lunches from a local cafe (with the most delicious chocolate brownies!) and bubbly for us all to snack on whilst hearing about some of the summer fashion trends. 

I have never been a Warehouse girl (I'm only recently starting to branch out into different high street brands, thanks salary!) but I remember passing it on shopping trips and thinking it was a brand for people my mum's age. However after discussions with some of their lovely team who had travelled all the way up from London for the event, they mentioned how Warehouse have really opened up their designs (and price range) to include younger and older audiences which is really impressive.

After talking to us all about mixing metallic and bright colours into our wardrobe, we were left to speak to Frankie and Dolly and browse the store. Whilst we were there, we were given 20% off anything we picked up in store (to which I treated myself to gorgeous grey waterfall duster jacket that I will be featuring soon!). I've already got my eye on several pieces that I want to wear for the British Style Collective next week!

What's your favourite high street store?
