Last night I attended the ultra exclusive launch party of VX, a new vodka with a hint of cognac by French vodka brand Grey Goose. It was a rather stylish affair in the Rumpus Room of The Mondrian on Southbank. Clean Bandit played a live set (video at the bottom!), and then they also performed with Rae Morris (which sadly I didn’t film)!
I took Edd and Toni along with me, and then we also bumped into Clerkenwell Boy! It was so lovely to catch up with them all again! We spent the evening sipping various concoctions of delicious cocktails, munching on the most incredible canapes and mini opera cakes, and then naturally we had to have a taste of the Grey Goose VX. I must say it was pretty good vodka! They recommend you drink it ‘on the rocks’, but it’s far too strong for me so I think I’d have to have it in a cocktail.
A huge thank you to Grey Goose for inviting me to celebrate the launch of VX, we had such a brilliant night and we met some really interesting people, including Nik from Ada + Nik! Such a lovely guy and really passionate about the fashion industry. I also got to meet my childhood/teenage celeb crush – Charlie from Busted. Score!

Ah you met Nik Thakkar, isn't he such a sweetheart? This post reminds me I haven't been to the Mondrian in AGES (or drank vodka since forever actually, or at least since I discovered I'm allergic to it). See you tonight Luxy! x
