(Stole this one off of Ashleigh – thanks!)
Being kinda unemployed part time employed (through my blog and a bar job) has recently had it’s perks. I’ve decided I might as well make the most of my free time at the moment, and say yes to fun blog events etc that I wouldn’t be able to yes to if I had a full time job. The lovely ladies at Alex Silver PR invited me to an intimate bloggers lunch with the gorgeous lady that is Jess Wright. Jess Wright is is the new celebrity ambassador for Kiss Cosmetics, and it was so lovely to sit down with her and to ask her our burning beauty questions.
I’ve never been to Sushi Samba but wow it really was such a special experience. From the super impressive lift to the decor of the place, it really is a magical spot. We started the lunch with a few pre-lunch cocktails at the bar where we got to ask Jess any questions we had. I wanted to know what her Christmas party clutch bag essentials were and she said that she loves the MAC Prep and Shine Powder and a red lip. She also raved about her Clarisonic and how she likes to mix up skincare. It was really nice to have an informal chat in a group with Jess about things she loves and likes, and it was a nice pre-lunch ice breakers and way to meet the other bloggers. After we had asked our questions we sat around the gorgeous table, where we each had a place setting, a copy of the menu and a super generous goody bag.
I’ve always wanted to try out Sushi Samba, but due to having a fish allergy I’ve always been a bit scared to go there. However the staff were incredible attentive and reassured me that they have lots of guests that visit with allergies/complex dietary requirements and that they would look after me. And they really did. We were eating from the Group Tasting menu which was incredible and for the dishes I couldn’t eat I was given my own individual dish, such as a lamb shank, a gorgeous mushroom bowl, delicious vegetable sushi and some beef gyoza type things. It worked out really well and I ate so many gorgeous things.
Aside from the amazing location, lunch, Jess Wright and fellow bloggers, it was great to have a chat through some lovely Kiss and Impress products, including the GORGEOUS fluttery lashes and super glitzy fake gel nails, which are perfect for Christmas and parties.
Thank you to Alex Silver PR and Kiss for having me, I had a lovely afternoon!
