This weekend, we hit up Leeds City Centre for the opening of our very first Footasylum Women’s store.
The three-day event saw a whole host of bloggers and brands come together to celebrate the launch of our Lands Lane shop, right in the heart of the city.
To kick things off, Footasylum hosted a pre-launch event on Thursday night which saw 40 of the UK’s hottest bloggers descend into the sweet-themed store, where they were treated to music by DJ Snoochie Shy, and snacks courtesy of an instore candy floss machine and ice cream supply.
Commenting on what she thought of the event, @JuiceGee said: “I loved the ice cream theme, it was everywhere with the sweets too.
I could just see all around the store these little displays with ice cream and sprinkles - I didn’t actually realise until later on that you could actually get an ice cream with sprinkles, it was sick!”
Speaking about the store, @Vanessardnls said: “Some of the trainers that are in the store I’ve never seen anywhere else so it’s nice to see new things aswell. It’s nice and summery and fun, but then still sporty and girly at the same time.”
While @samiorenelda said: “I really like the aethestic of the store, it’s really cute with the pastels. Very summery, very now.”
Friday also saw adidas host a pop up event in store, setting up their own nail bar where customers could get their own adi-themed nail art, and a photo booth to capture the moment.
To finish the weekend off, PUMA hit up the store on Saturday, bringing DJs Jettsss and Tinea Taylor to provide the soundtrack to the customers' shop.
