The Ladies' Tea Party 2010
The event I look forward to most every year is the Irish Blog Awards, although honestly it’s mostly because of the Ladies Tea Party held before hand. And this year, when it was announced that the awards were being held in Galway, I set my heart on one of the swankiest venues in Ireland.
Thanks to help from Maria Moynihan and sponsorship from L’Onglex, I’m delighted to announce that the L’Onglex Ladies Tea Party will be held in a posh, posh suite at the posh, posh g hotel. The date is 27 March from 4 – 7 PM, and this year’s event will include food, drink, tea, cakes and even gift bags!
And frankly, given the amount of changing, primping, and even hair dying that went on at last year’s event, we’ve given in and decided to open a DIY Nail Bar so you can strip off your old colour and prepare to paint the town and your toes red (or Absolutely Alice, or Pompeii Purple, or…). We’ll provide all the varnish, L’Onglex and cotton wool you can eat; just sit down with your fingers and toes and get your glam on.
As in previous years, tickets are €17 and must be pre-booked on the honour system. If you don’t know anyone, don’t worry; the whole point is to meet other women bloggers and make friends before the awards. It’s a great, fun and buzzy afternoon, and you are genuinely welcome.
Here come the girls, baby…
What: The L’Onglex Ladies’ Tea Party
Who: You. A pre-event mixer for Ireland’s women bloggers.
When: Saturday, 27 March from 4 – 7 PM
Where: The absolutely fabulous g hotel
Why: Food, drink, nail painting, general merriment
How: Tickets are €17 per person and are limited to 40.
Registration & Info: NOW OPEN

Hi Sabrina,
Very excited about the Ladies ‘tea’ party! Thanks for organising it, sounds like it’s going to be tons of fun and in the G Hotel too! Fabulous!
Hope Maria can make it too. See you in March!

20.02.2010, 5:28 pmYah! Elly put my name down! * dancing about on new hip*
20.02.2010, 5:38 pmYou guys, I am *so* excited. And I hate to admit this, but I’m so keen on the venue I picked the wine from Curious Wines based on the matching, hip and vibrant wine labels :)
(Seriously, they only sell fantastic wine, so it’s going to be all good…)
Also I have never curated a nail varnish collection before (!!!) so I’m looking forward to working with L’Onglex on that – the Nail Bar should really be a ton of fun!
Ooooh this sounds just perfect! I am tickled pink to be nominated in two categories in this my first year of blogging. I’ve already made friends and met up with a few bloggers in the past year, but this sounds like a terrific way to meet up with more. And I adore the G Hotel :-)
