Jubilee Fever!

We have a great international following at BoBelle London and we thought we would post up some pics from the fabulous Diamond Jubilee event that was all over the UK this weekend. It really was a once-in-a-lifetime event and boy, did we go all out and have fun! We were obviously wishing for glorious sunshine, but instead we got rain - the classic British weather. Still, that certainly didn't stop us Brits from going all out; from street parties through to concerts, come rain or shine, we had a good time!

Here are a few pictures from the Sunday procession and Monday antics in St James's:



This was my chosen outfit for Her Maj, but unfortunately it just wasn't warm enough....on went the Burberry mac and cashmere scarf. Obviously was sporting BoBelle London's Crown Clutch (available now to pre-order - call +44 (0) 208 743 7308), Christopher Kane t-shirt and MiH jeans. You can't quite see, but I even put on red, white and blue glitter nail varnish....lovely.

Along with copious glasses of English sparkling wine, a truly British day would not be set without Gin Slim and Pimm's (rain optional)


BoBelle London's new HQ is going to be at the glorious Somerset House and we were thrilled to have watched the 1000 boats go by along the Thames from our new to-be HQ. By this stage there was plenty of music, 'hooraying' and good old English banter. We actually got a fabulous pic of the Queen herself - it's funny how patriotic we all are at heart.

On to Monday and Her Maj was given a special concert in the Mall. Unfortunately we didn't get tickets in the ballot so we instead ushered down to St James's Park and watched from there. The atmosphere was electric and the performers were incredible. Tom Jones especially singing 'Delila' got the crowds going. The weather was dry and very pleasant; all in all, perfect.

Took this on the phone and thought it was pretty cool - the London Eye shining in Blue, White and Red. Stunning.

We hope that the Queen, as well as our readers, had a wonderful and memorable Diamond Jubilee!
