Well today the web team celebrated Alice's birthday, as well as two other members on the web team, and what a fabulous birthday it was!
For Ruth we bought Tiffany earrings, Natalie - Zara vouchers, Alice - £50 River Island vouchers... or so it seemed! ha!
So anyway, we did buy Alice a Vivienne Westwood bracelet and £50 in topshop vouchers, but I, being the comical genius that I am, thought it would be bloody hilarious to pretend we had bought Alice £50 in River Island vouchers, and only £50 in vouchers.
So set the scene, we're all in the photo studio having a mini party, Alice is first with the card and gift. There I am snapping away, Alice opens her card first, the shortly after her voucher. The look on that Diva's face was the face of a diva about to throw a blackberry at some beody's face when she saw the voucher and how much was on it...
Ruth next... Tiffany earrings, perfectly delightful. Alice was fuming. she turned to Alex and said between her teeth: RUTH GOT A BETTER PRESENT THAN ME...
And before you know it, I ask Alice to hold my H&M bag with Vivienne Westwood bag concealed inside... Of course that nosy diva takes a quick look inside the "empty" bag...
PRICELESS!!!
Isn't it gorgeous! Well done us.
It was a fabulous reaction. Alice was NOT happy about her fake "gift" and hated acting like she was happy with it - what a second rate diva! I think it's amazing how we got the River Island gift card prop and everything to keep up the act.
But anyway, after the cakes were over, over to Westfield we all went for a mooch around the shops and a Wagamama! Out favourite! It was a fabulous afternoon and evening with two second rate divas and the web team, days like these make us tres happy!
Anyway, Alice and I were fabulous to the max today:
Alice wore vintage Fur jacket, PriMark thigh high suede effect boots, navy vintage bag, and Mango lace print dress underneath the fabulous fur, and of course:
The Vivienne Westwood on her wrist.
I wore:
Mjolk for Topman shirt, Topman suit jacket, H&M kids black skinnies, Topman dessert boots and my little home made dickie bow:
Looking a little skew-wiff here in this photo, but I made this last night very quickly with some velvet ribbon, and it payed off big time, the amount of compliments I got today about it was great for my ego. And home made treats make it all the more worth while. And Alice could not stop raving about my outfit all day, she told me more than a few times how great I looked. maybe hinting a little too much for a date - haha, only kidding Alice.
Anyway, I need my beauty sleep, another day of storming about the office like some kind of second rate diva is waiting for Alice and I.
xoxo
