So the question is, as the "Style Judge" what did I choose to wear.........???




Photographs from the night kindly provided by Glen McAuley, Caroline Smyth, Stephen Potter & Norm Keilty.

Truth is, I am a very lucky girl, I get to dress up in fabulous outfits and get to go to some extremely glamorous events! I am living my dream, and every now and again I even find myself in front of a photographer's lens as I'm photographed for a "Best Dressed" Competition or a "Style" section for various magazine's and online publications!!

Well guess what?? The roles are now reversed as I can officially announce i'm now writing "Style Watch" for Belfast Times! So while you'll be able to continue to read about all the fabulous events I attend right here on "The Real Elle Woods", you'll also be able to check out my "Style Watch" for the most striking outfits I spot on the night with you via the Belfast Times!!

My first piece features the stunning style of audience member's in attendance at Alexandra Godfrey's Fashion Show and Entertainment Evening in aid of TinyLife!! Alexandra very kindly asked me to judge the Best dressed Competition and I had a blast checking out all the very fashionable attendee's!! So why not click on the link below to see my Best Dressed Shortlist and to discover who won on the night!!

The first of my regular "Style Watch" pieces for The Belfast Times:

On the night, I myself was wearing the stunning Neon tribal shift dress (DL066) from my favourite store Karen Millen, accessorised with the matching clutch: Graphic tribal clutch (GL101), an orange Tropical cuff (ZJ003) and my statement Swarovski encrusted watch with orange ostrich print strap (VK005) all from Karen Millen!!

I hope all my readers enjoy reading my future "Style Watch" pieces for the Belfast Times, and massive thanks to Jeff of the Belfast Times for asking me to do it!!

Time to say goodbye to the January blues and herald in the Spring with some fabulous fashion events!!! I don't know about you, but after all the excitement of Christmas and New Year, January can seem like a bit of an anti-climax! Plus here in Belfast the fashion scene tends not to kick off until the end of January, so i've been suffering from major fashion show withdrawal symptoms!!

However my wait is now almost over as my friend Alexandra Godfrey, Fashion Stylist and Events Co-ordinator, will be holding a fully choreographed and styled Fashion Show and Entertainment Evening this Friday 8 February 2013 at the Stormont Hotel, Belfast!

This event is being held in aid of TinyLife, the only premature and vulnerable baby charity in Northern Ireland dedicated to reducing illness, disability and death in babies. (Which as a premature baby myself is a cause very close to my heart!)


I have had the pleasure of working with Alexandra when she assisted at Man Time & this girl is amazing! Not only does she have a true passion for fashion, but she is blessed with amazing talent and so when she set out to create an event “not to be missed” I knew it was going to be something special!!
The event will be featuring local boutiques, independent retailers and businesses and Northern Ireland's own FNT LIVE (on a high after their recent "Nordie Shore" parody), Emily Rose Conlon, Vibe Dance Crew and Martin John.

Talking about the forthcoming Fashion Extravaganza, Alexandra Godfrey said “I am very excited about this event. TinyLife is a wonderful charity to support. We have fashion, music, comedy and dance acts on the night, as well a chance to buy something for your loved one - just in time for Valentine's!”


There are still some tickets available for this much sought after ticket only event. To avoid disappointment get your tickets now by contacting:

Despite achieving so much at such a young age Alexandra has not lost sight of the most important things in her life:
