As you all know, we were super excited for last night and it definitely lived up to our expectations! The Company and Missguided ladies really pulled it out the bag this year hosting the Missguided Fest at The Oval Space in Hackney on quite frankly the most beautiful british summer evening. We were greeted with BBQ food and ice-cream and Company's incredibly, beautifully gorgeous street style photographer Holly McGlynn. It was so lovely to catch up with lots of lovely bloggers and meet so many new ones too!

We still can't quite believe we got the Highly Commended prize in our catergory! and want to say a huge congrats to Shope and Shore over at London's Closet for a well deserved win! Just being there was an honour in itself and the love and support we are continually shown from fellow bloggers, companies and you, our readers, is what makes this all so worth while. We love you all to bits and are completely over the moon with all the success you've helped us have in the last year :)

Get Ready With Me (2 Weeks To Go) - Amy

This post is in association with Missguided, wonderful sponsors of the Company Style Blogger Awards 2014

We are incredibly proud/grateful/lucky to have been shortlisted for Best Blogging Duo at this year's Company Style Blogger Awards and with just 2 weeks to go, preparation is already well underway! As it's you, our beautiful readers, who got us here in the first place, we'd like to share our excitement with you are letting you 'Get Ready With Us' in 2 sneak peak posts :)

I am not a beauty and life style blogger and this post definitely shows it! But it's been really nice to do something a bit different. Awards night is going to be my first night out since having Ivy so I am even more excited than usual! Being shortlisted is enough of a reason to celebrate so I will be getting ready with a prosecco in my hand, so let the party begin!

Skin Care

with combination skin and post-pregnancy hormones playing havoc with breakouts, I've been testing loads of new skincare products to make sure I don't have any major zits on the night. My daily skincare routine leading up to the awards has been Soap & Glory's Ultimelt Cleanser followed by Lush's Tea Tree Toner Water and then Soap and Glory's Fab Pore Facial Peel three times a week on top. I have never faked tanned or used a sun bed in my life but as Naomi is sporting her Morroccan tan I want glowing skin too! I have been doing a full body exfoliate twice a week and following up with a Dove gradual tan moisturiser.

Hair Care

when it comes to hair and makeup, I am a pretty low maintenance person. I have a hair appointment booked at Blue Tit, Dalston a couple of days before so I have no split ends and a staight fringe (I usually just cut my own!) but on the night I will just enjoy a usual wash and blow dry. I am completely obsessed with John Frieda's Frizz Ease Styling Spray though, as it tames loose fly aways and gives a sleeker finish to my hair. It rained at last year's awards, so my hair can only look better this year!

Make Up

I will also be following my normal make up routine on the night. I do like simple make up but honestly, I just don't know enough about putting the bloody stuff on and this is not the night to experiment. I have chosen Rimmel's Moisture Renew Lipstick in Latino for the night which is suprisingly subtle for me but the colour matches perfectly with my outfit and can let my dress do the talking. This Rimmel collection is spot on for me as I always have dry lips - I was gifted one at LFW last season and havent looked back since. Other than that, I'll be wearing black liquid liner and might even treat myself to mascara.

Nails

I will be wearing Barry M Gelly Nail Paint in Huckleberry (2 coats) and Models Own Jack Frost Glitter (1 coat) on the top to tie in with my clutch. I will be doing this myself but will leave adequate drying time (unlike this tester time round, oops)

Music

the most important bit of getting ready is the music to set the mood! Here are my, quite personal, top 10 playlist must haves:

Yeasayer - O.N.E // New Order - Blue Monday // Clean Bandit - Rather Be // Amerie - One Thing // ACDC - You Shook Me All Night Long // Chaka Khan - Aint Nobody // Rita Ora - I Will Never Let You Down // Artful Dodger - Movin' Too Fast // Hairspray - You Can't Stop The Beat // David Bowie - Let's Dance

Outfit

I like to get ready in something comfy but also something sexy that's going to give me that all important confidence boost! This amazing Missguided coord (top & bottom) fits the bill perfectly :) as for the awards? Well, that would be telling ;) we have some pretty special dresses on route so for now, I'll leave you with some accessories teasers and a hint of Daisy Eau So Fresh

Who's Got Our Vote - Company Blog Awards 2014

With the Company Style Blog Awards nominations well under way, it is clear there are an incredible amount of amazing blogs in the running this year, so we here at TSOP want to share who is getting our votes this year round!

VOTE HERE!

Megan at Pages By Megan

Manchurian fashion student Megan's fashion blog is most definitely the best one we have found in the last few months - and I want everything in her wardrobe (that's if I don't have it already!) Having undergone an amazing transformation from What's New Pussycatt to Pages By Megan, it's hard to believe that she has only been blogging a year or so!

Shope and Shore at Londons Closet

Our favourite blogging duo and a complete inspiration to us! These gorgeous ladies have to be two of the nicest people we have met since we have been blogging! Having won Best Blogging Duo at the 2013 awards, they are going for Best Personal Style this year as they are two for the price of one!

Charlotte at Lurchhound Loves

Another relatively new find for us is Charlotte from Lurchhound Loves. We love her style and her great blog and know you all will to! She is also super nice and has supported us along the way so we are supporting her to!

Lydia at Fashion Influx

We have followed Lydia for a long time now and met her at the Cosmopolitan blog awards end of last year where she won runner up. She is such a lovely girl and has a beautiful blog! Naomi also judged with her at The Grand National a few weeks ago- we are routing for you Lydia!

Lindsey at Ropes Of Holland

Her style is absolutely flawless and after meeting her at LFW it was so nice to finally meet her in person! We love her clean, premium outfits and she always looks gorgeous. Everyone check out her blog, she's a style inspiration!

Geraint at His Name Is Fashion

Working with Gerraint at Topshop we are very happy to include him in this! His blog is very new and so were we when we entered last year and it did amazing things for us. Gerraint has incredible style and we are so pleased he is going for the 'mens blogger' category!

We are going for the 'Best Blogging Duo & Team' category this year so if you feel like we deserve a vote you can vote HERE! Along with our suggestions above :-)

Company Style Blogger Awards 2014

As if it's been a year already? We were totally gobsmacked to be shortlisted for Best Personal Style Newcomer last year, just 2 months after we'd started! But we have come a hell'a long way in a year and would love to get involved in this again

We would really, really love you forever if you could possibly nominate us for Best Blogging Duo or Team by clicking HERE

Thank you so much, not just for now but for all the support you have already shown us!

All our love, Amy and Naomi x

LFW AW14 - Day 1

We braved the wet, cold and windy weather yesterday at Somerset House but sadly the key (and most necessary) accessory was the umbrella. However, we had the most gorgeous breakfast with New Look at the Savoy to kick start the day and met some beautiful bloggers :)

On Wednesday, the pair of us were honoured to be attending the Company Style Blogger Awards 2013 at the Truman Brewery just off Brick Lane! With Champagne reception, photobooth, customise your own sunglasses and a room full of other wonderfully dressed people it was a little blogging haven!

Although we didn't win any awards, we felt so incredibly lucky to just have the chance to be there and rub shoulders with bloggers that have been going a lot longer and are a lot more established than we are so would like to take this opportunity to thank every single one of you for reading, supporting and voting for TSOP, we can't explain how much it means to us.

As for our outfits - we wanted to stay true to our own personal styles, but of course we also wanted to match! It seems monochrome with a little something else is becoming our signature style for attending events together! and tonight's little something else was gold, inspired by Amy's sweatshirt that she has been obsessing over since it was on the Topshop imagery back in January and has finally come into stores. We wanted to look smart and chic so went for collars and skirts rather than dresses, leather for a bit of an edge and polka dots for fun :) sums us up perfectly!

What would you wear to a style bloggers award ceremony? with so many blogging beauties in one place the pressure is insane to get those all important outfits right!
