Tempest markets itself as a brand of 'sexy, sultry and sophisticated' clothing for women with a range of figure-hugging dresses, that are loved by celebrities such as Holly Willoughby. Currently, Miss Wales, Alice Ford, and West End star Sophie Evans, are faces of the brand.
Arriving at the Mercure, I was directed to the penthouse suite, where I had the pleasure of meeting fellow blogger Sophie from Twisted Individual for the first time, and we were joined soon after by the lovely Liz from Bambi the Style Hunter. The suite was as ostentatious as a penthouse suite should be, with animal print soft furnishings and lashings of purple. Even the walls on one side had leopard print wallpaper! After a few glasses of champagne, and lots of admiration of the outfits that were arriving, it was time to head downstairs for the main event. By this point I was feeling woefully underdressed having turned up straight from work, relieved that I was wearing a skirt and heels and had put more make-up on. The invitation didn't say it was black tie!
