Press Release: Rockins for Eyeko VIP Party / Collaboration

ROCKINS FOR EYEKO LAUNCH EVENT

TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 25th

THE SCOTCH OF ST JAMES

ALEXA CHUNG, KATE MOSS, JAMIE HINCE, RITA ORA, 

MARY CHARTERIS AND JAMIE WINSTONE

Last night saw Eyeko, the award-winning go-to brand for eyes, unveil their partnership with Rockins, a cult collection of 1920's inspired bias cut scarves, and classic handkerchiefs with a modern yet quintessentially British edge.

Rockins for Eyeko was born of a meeting of minds, when Tim Rockins, a London based artist, illustrator, musician & DJ, created a monochrome design, paying homage Eyeko’s global trademarks, the ‘Alexa’ eye and the Eyeko plectrum.

Guests were treated to a live performance from the Rockins for Eyeko dance troupe. Top make-up artist James O’Reiley created a dramatic eye look whilst James Brown coiffed their locks courtesy of Premier Hair & Make Up.

Nail care: Probelle Nail Hardeners

PROBELLE NAIL POLISH

TOUCHN'GROW 2-STEP SYSTEM 

My nails are one of my best accessories and one of the first things you notice, especially since I always have a camera in hand; either taking pictures of products at home, work, or while covering an event. My nails are also natural (no acrylic or wrap - just good ol' polish) so in-between daily polish changes and wear-and-tear, they chip or break constantly and deserve a lot of love (plus I'm also guilty of opening packages using my nails!) 

My preferred "active length", but they grow longer...
