You probably know this by now but I’m a big fan of Habitat. After all, our Kilo Side Tables are still going strong after many years of use and two children. So I was absolutely thrilled when Habitat invited me to attend their Couchella Festival last week in their Tottenham court road flagship store. Would you believe I even managed to drag my husband to the event with me (hint, spot the guy in a suit!) for a bit of a date night. But the real reason why I was there was to celebrate the launch of Habitat’s first ever digital music festival – Couchella!
It was one of the most fun and laid-back blogger/press events I have attended to date. The London DJ Duo Bittersweet was amazing and the yummy cocktails and food certainly managed to put both of us in festival spirit. The photos show just how much fun everyone was having. There were refreshments, tattoos, djs, photo booths, blow dry bars.. What’s not to love! And let’s not forget about the pretty interiors. Of course I wanted to buy everything (especially that rose gold coffee table!)
I managed to get papped while I was sitting on the couch with my other half. This is what happens when you are aware that someone is taking your photo, but you’re trying not to pose. I think I was going for cool but it kind of came out moody in stead. Must remember this next time.. By the way, my favourite part of the night was listening to different playlists on the sofas. My husband was feeling pretty comfortable too as you can see. We didn’t want to leave!
Did I mention how yummy the cocktails were? I’m usually more of a wine kind of girl but the bellini’s and pina colada’s convinced me it’s time to brush up those cocktail making skills for the summer. Also, street food by Jimmy Garcia was absolutely divine. It definitely tasted as good as it looked!
‘The Festival you don’t even have to leave your sofa for’ launches Friday 14th of April 2017 at habitat.co.uk/couchella. You will have access to downloadable playlists, guides to festival fashion/how to create your own ‘at home’ festival, tips on Coachella inspired cocktails, food, décor etc. Sounds pretty amazing, right? I can’t wait to sign up and get some tips for the summer and barbeque parties.PS. Thank you Habitat for inviting us to the event and providing such fun entertainment and food/drinks for the evening. I also got to take home the most amazing goody bag full of recovery treats and a gift card. Needless to say, we had a blast!For more information visit www.habitat.co.uk/couchella
