Hope you're all having a fabulous week. We were super lucky last week and were invited to Celtic Manor Resort for a sneak peek of their new Champagne and Beauty bar - it's as fabulous as you are imagining!
We were so excited when the invite came through and just knew we had to go, not only was the event going to be amazing but we were hoping we'd have a chance to catch up with some of our blogger friends so couldn't wait.
I don't know about you but I think the skirt above is absolutely beautiful, I love the high waist and the pastel blue colour and the lace top is so dainty.
I love the neckline of the dress below too, very pretty but not too revealing either and the fitted waist is perfect for giving you an hourglass figure.
Lastly how beautiful is this lacy white dress?! It's very fitted but the longer length complements this.
If I was going to the Polo I would choose the blue dress and definitely invest in a comfortable pair of nude wedges - the ones in Lydia's video are perfect! Pretty and also comfortable and much better for a long day of eating and drinking and watching the Polo.
The only thing I can recommend in addition to these gorgeous outfit choices is a blazer! There's no trusting the weather in South Wales and a blazer is a must for the potential showers and breezy evenings....as optimistic as I'd like to be there's nothing worse than getting chilly and a blazer is a chic way to cover up.
Lydia has also helpfully created another video to help with your hair and make up choices:
If I was going to the Polo I'd go for dewy skin and pick a nude smokey eye and a coral lip - I love coral lipstick! As for hair, I'm a firm believe in the bigger the better and I would love to have waves just like Lydias.....all the time!
What would you wear to the Polo At The Manor? Do you like Lydia's outfit choices?
How would you do your hair and make up?
Not only is there lots of glamour at the event, there is also an Elemis Bus for spa treatments and Depot are providing a wonderful array of streetfood, including Beetlejuice Campervan who create wonderful cocktails.

Neither of us had even heard of this before but we were excited to try it as usual!
As the photo from the menu below shows, it contains vodka, cointreau and pineapple juice shaken together with ice and topped up with champagne, ooh err!
I absolutely love the presentation of cocktails like this!
They look so elegant.
This cocktail maybe had a little too much champagne in as it overpowered the other ingredients which is hard to do considering they included cointreau and pineapple juice!
We probably wouldn't have this one again in a hurry, unless we had more control over the amount of champagne. No one can resist a champagne cocktail but this was a little much.
At some point we'd like to try it without the champagne...but then I suppose it wouldn't be a Flirtini!
What do you think of champagne? Do you like it in cocktails?
