My lovely friend Fannie Divine threw a launch party earlier this week for her fabulous new venture Pin Ups In Pinnies.
Her idea is wonderful. You book Fanny and her bevy of pins ups who come to your events and hand out the most delicious cupcakes.Almost like sugar sprinkled latter day cigarette girls. Since it began a few months ago its already becoming a must have feature at glamorous events and even the queen of kitch Cath Kidston used the Pin ups team at a recent shop opening.

The launch party was certainly a very glamorous affair. Burlesque lovely Glorian Gray was performing guest list duties and no sooner had you stepped into the venue than you were handed a glass of champagne by Fannie who looked suitably ravishing in her cup cake hair fasinator.

As you would expect at the launch of a cake related company there were cakes galore. Everything from absinthe to baileys flavoured confections all served by beautiful 1950's style lovelies.

As if cake and champagne wasn't enough there was also fantastic burlesque by one of my favourite performers Sherry Trifle.

The amazing Em Brulee also performed and belted out a great set of vintage standards including some classic Ella Fitzgerald.

I went along with my partner in pamper box crime Lilly Von Pink and was chuffed to meet up with two of the coolest gals in burlesque Diva Hollywood and Millie Dollar. We had a good old jangle and ate lots of cake.
