On Wednesday night it was the awards ceremony of the Company Style Blogger Awards.
I did mention it briefly on the blog on the day that I was switching servers back in January, but I didn’t make much of a noise about it, so you might not have known I was nominated!
There was a whole “We Love Vintage” category, and a few other lovely bloggers I know were nominated in that category. The awards were sponsored by Banrock Station Wines and Pink Pigeon Rum, so, y’know, I thought it might be worth popping along…..
Pink Pigeon rum comes in very cool looking bottle. Personally I am firmly of the opinion that cool looking bottles improve the taste of a drink.
The Mauritius Mules they made for us were delicious, here’s Margaret from Penny Dreadful stealing sharing mine.
The only decent photo of my outfit I have is one Company took of me when I arrived. I still had my hat and coat on, but never mind! Mine is one of a selection of photos in the Gallery that don’t have a caption saying who I am, which suggests to me that they don’t have a clue, but never mind!

I was also pleased to finally meet Florrie from Intrinsically Florrie who’s blog has been on my reader for years. Attempting to look serious and glam, failing miserably.
I didn’t win my category, sadly, neither did Margaret from Penny Dreadful or (who my money was on) Fleur from Diary of a Vintage Girl. Instead the winner was What Katie Wore, a hugely popular blog (though I must confess not one I read *oops*), but also a blog that shut up shop on 10th January this year.
Maybe next year is our year!?
(L-R Fleur, Margaret, Me!)
