Republic Live - Mavis Band & DJ Ste-v-something (ibiza rocks)

If you did'nt know already highstreet retailer Republic are currently doing live music days in some of their biggest stores to celebrate the UKs best new up and coming music artists, and generally just throwing everyone a good time. I work in Republic Southampton and today was our turn. We had the band Mavis playing for us and Dj Ste-v-something from Ibiza Rocks opening and closing the mini show, both acts were super lovely and let me snap photos of them galore! We also got a Millies Cookies representative giving out free cookies, 30 crates of Red Bull to give out to our customers, and as if that wasn't enough, our whole store had 25% off and every customer who purchased something today got a goodie bag full of sweets, VIP invites to clubs in Southampton AND Body Shop samples, Our store was rammed and a good day was had by all. I was lucky enough to be asked to take photos of the event so camera, regular lens and 8mm fisheye lens in tow I had a wicked time snapping away all day. Heres a few pictures for you to have a nose at - and if Republic have a show coming to your town - DON'T miss out!

The top that refuses to photograph!

Top - £22 Glamorous @ Republic

Bandeau - £2.99 Newlook

Disco Pant Dupes - £30 River Island

Studded Vectras - £26 Topshop

I've loved this top since it came in at work and finally decided to buy it the other day with my staff disount. Its a sheer black shirt with silver studs all round the colour and cut out shoulders, This is a 12 and its still really big and floaty, It is however impossible to get a nice picture of but I hope you catch the drift! Big thanks to Luke (my house mate) for yet again taking more photographs of me - much appreciated!

What do you think? Do you like cut out shoulders?
