The Birmingham Blogger Meetup

As I mentioned in an earlier post, this month I had the opportunity to go to my first blogger meetup.

The meetup took place in Birmingham, but attracted bloggers from all over the U.K despite the snow. 

We met in Starbucks at New Street Station and then were divided into groups.  My group went for a little wonder around the Bullring.  Although I didn’t buy anything…as you can see from my haul video, I’ve already bought enough this month!

Before:My First Blogger Meetup

Tomorrow I will be attending my first blogger meetup. I’m super excited, but also a little nervous as I’ve never met any of the bloggers attending. But I’ve been speaking to a few of the girls on twitter and they seem really lovely. The meetup will be taking place in Birmingham and is split into two sections.

The first section we will be going shopping, and having a little look at what the last of the January Sales have to offer. Then in the evening we will be going for a meal at Red Pepper restaurant in The MailBox. I will hopefully be vlogging on the day (I seem to film vlogs and then never upload them) but if I don’t vlog there will definitely be a blog post so watch out for that.
