BNTM Live Video: Geek Chic for Motorola Flipout!

So you have read all about it, browsed through my pictures and left a few comments...well here is the video from one of the most stylish weekends I have ever had! BNTM live for Motorola Flipout. Where I styled a model in a 1950s vintage geek chic outfit and spoke to the masses about vintage fashion and geek chic style. Geeks - it's hip to be square!

BNTMLive2010 for Motorola Flipout: Vintage Geek Chic!

It is hip to be square dear readers...you heard it here! Last weekend I was asked by Motorola Flipout to style a model for the Geek Chic catwalk at the BNTM Live event at Excel in London.

Along with five other fabulous bloggers we dressed, styled and talked on the Kiss Catwalk at the BNTM event all about our look, the clothes,  the accessories and our inspirations behind our model's threads. I had to come up with a vintage geek chic look so naturally I decided to go 1950s (obvious?) I chose the original Sandra Dee as my inspiration mixed with a little Mad Men's Peggy Olsen circa first series.

Frankie from SwellVintage was my vintage partner in crime and dressed her model in 70s vintage clobber, with the latest Chloe catwalk as her inspiration.

So I could go on and on about the models, their perfect skin and lean limbs, but I thought instead that I would just show you lots of the pictures. It was such a great event and far too much fun to call work. Thanks to all the wonderful bloggers, hairstylists, make up artists, stage and technical support, JCPR, models, Motorola and the woman who sung about walking in her stiletto's! It was a weekend I will never forget.

If you want to see more pictures from the weekend, check out my Flickr page and add me as a contact so you can see when I add more. Makes sense!

Keep checking the blog for the video!
