We love combining two of our great passions; fashion and charity fundraising. In a previous years there may have been rumours about LadyM wearing a giant strawberry costume to run the Race for Life, we cannot confirm or deny this.

Well now we’ve combined fashion and charity work in a slightly more civilised manner. Last week LadyM and Matthew Lees from hair salon, Happy Hair attended the Tunbridge Wells High Street Fashion Extravaganza in aid of counselling charity, Relate.

Tunbridge Wells High Street Fashion Extravaganza for Relate

An evening of bubbles, fashion, shopping and boat boys selling raffle tickets, what more could you ask for on a autumnal wednesday? As well as footwear by Avanti and Pour les Femmes lingerie, one of our favourite Tunbridge Wells (and Brighton) boutiques, bod and ted showcased a great Autumn/Winter womenswear collection.
