Boohoo Paris Winner Gets Engaged!

Boohoo prize winner, Christine was over the moon when she won an all expenses paid trip to Paris over the Easter weekend.  However what she didn’t know was that she would come back engaged!  That’s right, we were very a excited office this morning at boohoo HQ, when we learnt Christine’s boyfriend popped the question in the most romantic city in the world and she said YES!

But what did Christine have to say about the experience?  ’We had an amazing time in Paris. The four star hotel was lovely and all the staff were very friendly and helpful.  The hotel had themed rooms so we swapped rooms half way through our stay: our first room was Eiffel Tower themed and the second was based around the Arc de Triomphe. Both were brilliant!’

‘We spent the first day shopping and found a shopping mall which had seven floors of designer shops. The second day we went to Monmatre in the morning, which is an old fashioned part filled with cobbled streets and artists. In the afternoon, we took the metro to the Eiffel Tower and walked up 800+ stairs then caught a lift all the way to the top and the views were great!’ 

‘The third day my boyfriend took me to a jewellers and proposed to me! We picked out the ring together and are over the moon. Thank you all again for making our dream holiday become true!’  Congratulations Christine from boohoo!

These street stylers prove that it’s all in the detail with their quirky mix of accessories.  Favourites of the bunch have to be the patent brogues, the collar necklace and statement rings.  Inspired by these fashion forward street style looks, we have put together a few hints and tips so you can accessorize your looks and be street-ready this Spring.

  1. Embrace your inner traveller by mixing Aztec prints with a statement bag
  2. Bling up with layers of gold jewellery
  3. Boys, don’t forget to buckle up with a brown vintage look belt
  4. Girls, accessorise up with a a mix of quirky necklaces
  5. Don’t forget about statement collars.  They are the perfect accessory for a collarless blouse or simple tee.
  6. Go boyish with a pair of statement brogues 
  7. Don’t forget about the details.  Layer up black and gold jewellery to stay on trend.

Congratulations to the boohoo Fiat 500 winner!

Leeds born Laura Mosby, 23 from Rothwell has just scooped the prize of a lifetime with a new Fiat 500 courtesy of online fashion retailer boohoo.com

Laura who works as a receptionist for Rudding Park Harrogate is sure to be the talk of the town as she drives around in the car of her dreams, a boohoo electric pink Fiat 500. Laura simply entered a competition on the boohoo Facebook page to win the car and is now the very happy winner of the nifty little motor.

Laura says “My current car is in desperate need of a little TLC with a hefty repairs bill in the not so distant future, winning the car of my dreams means so much as a new car was financially out of the question. Winning the boohoo Fiat 500 has been a lifesaver for me. I’m a singer so my car takes me and my equipment between gigs and given how my old car was on its last legs, this car couldn’t come at a better time.

It is also allowing me to visit my best friend and her new baby who live in Hastings. My old car wouldn’t have made it so my first adventure is a road trip down south. I’m also attending a few festivals where I’m performing so look out for me in my bright pink boohoo car! I’ve even named her Bella-Boo – every good car needs a name!”


Didn’t win the car this time? Don’t worry - Fiat  re also selling a bespoke boohoo Fiat 500! Check it our here
