Event | F&F Official Opening

Last week marked the official opening of F&F's first ever store in Malta, precisely on Level 2 at Daniel's Shopping Complex in Hamrun. The store has technically been open for like two weeks prior to the event but last week, it was all about it being open officially.

The event consisted of a brief fashion show for which models portrayed looks from F&F's Winter 2014/2015 Collection and the stars of the show have definitely been the super adorable kids with their 'feeling cool' walks and winning smiles - not to mention the very stylish clothes they were wearing!

After the fashion show, us guests made our way to the store where we were offered a 20% discount on our purchases for the night. F&F has a selection of essentials such as pyjamas, underwear, and those bits and bobs you simply must have in your wardrobe as well as a nice selection of garments, shoes and bags for men, women and children alike - all at a very affordable price tag and decent quality.

I got myself a khaki coloured parka with fleece lining and I'm sure it will be indispensable when I visit London next March. The price? It was marked at €60 which in my opinion is still a good price and with the discount, it came down to €48! The Mr. also bought a jacket for himself which came down to just €32 from €40.

Head down to F&F for some quality fashion pieces that won't break the bank! Check out their Facebook page for opening hours during this time of year and special offers!

Event | Pink 10th Anniversary Fashion Show

Last Thursday marked a very important milestone for Malta's leading women's magazine, Pink which is distributed monthly with The Sunday Times of Malta - it is the magazine's tenth birthday and what better way to celebrate than to host a fashion show at the Progress Press printing area which is not usually accessed by the general public?!

Ten brands, namely, ALDO Shoes & Accessories, Armani Jeans, Esprit, F&F, Karen Millen, Liu Jo, M&Co, Marks & Spencer, Miss Selfridge, and Tommy Hilfiger, showcased their collections for the upcoming season.

I really wished for an open cheque to somehow fall from the sky right into my lap that very moment so that I could buy all the outfits and accessories that the models strutted on the catwalk! Well actually, the catwalk was a carpet which featured past Pink Magazine covers and the backdrop was actually pallets and newspaper reels - a very nice and unique touch I must say! Furthermore, some models even had specially printed copies of The Times of Malta, featuring the respective clothing brands' logos.

Hair and makeup added and interesting touch of wow and tough factor to the outfits and they complemented even the dressiest of outfits.

After the fashion show, guests were treated to drinks and finger food courtesy of Catermax and everyone was given some generous goodie bags, thanks to the main sponsors. In fact, the event would not have been possible without the help of Alistair Fenech, CHEMIMART, Dical House Mosta, Diet Kinnie, Lady Million Eau my Gold, Natuzzi, Powwow Station, and Renault.

So, Happy 10th Birthday to Pink Magazine! I really look forward to each and every issue of the magazine as it really is at the forefront of covering the main topics of interest for women!
