So I'm well aware that I've been absent. In fact in this history of Dedicated (which is going on four years now), I believe this has been the worst month in terms of frequency. I am sorry. But I have had a reeeaaally good excuse.

About four months ago I started on one of the biggest contracts in the history of Stylesmith, which effectively amounted to, getting these lovely ladies (plus a few more that missed the photo opp)….

…onto this fabulous Rue La La sponsored bus….

…to road trip through the desert. Stopping off at a Ghost Town….

…for a sweaty but glamourous photo shoot….

…ate lunch (obviously we were all screwed)…

…And then got back on the bus and headed onwards to…

….Las Vegas!! For the MAGIC Tradeshows where….

…we learned how to ride the bus Vegas style…

…drank cheesy cocktails in cheesy stuck in the 80's (in a good way) bars (Peppermill Fireside Lounge)…

…bought out entire "off the grid/strip" Italian restaurants (at Chicago Joes, which happens to be my personal favourite Vegas eatery)…

 

..and accidentally ending up in party cabs….

It wasn't all fun and games (well actually it was) but the work was fun too…there were panels….

….networking sessions…..

…and millions of photo shoots!

All in all it was a fun and hugely successful week – you can see everything the bloggers got up to on the special blog we created 'Road to MAGIC' – you can all keep up with it as we'll be adding all the post show content, including our full photoshoots, to it – so be sure to bookmark it now :)

Well, thanks for hanging around in my absence – it was most appreciated and I promise – so much summer content is on it's way!!
