LOLA Promo Girls at the 5th European Water & Wastewater Management Conference & Exhibition

Photo-2_-_copy

A wide range of speakers, delegates and exhibitors were trying to find a solution to the problem with management of water and wastewater at the 5th European Water & Wastewater Management Conference & Exhibition. The event was held at The Barbican Centre, in the heart of the City of London on 26th and 27th September.

For the duration of the 2 days conference LOLA promo girls spoke with delegates and distributed relevant literature. The promotional staff were expected to become familiar with the Prince Sultan Bin Abdulaziz International Prize for Water and its conditions before the event. Sounds serious? Well it was, but our promo girls were more than happy to oblige and according to the client’s feedback they were amazing! Check it out yourself:

‘Just wanted to let you know that both Hazel and Osberta were absolutely brilliant at the event last week. Both girls were very enthusiastic, they have excellent people skills and dealt with the delegates in a friendly, professional manner. Overall they were a great asset to the team and made my job much easier! Please pass on our thanks to them both.- Sarah

Well thank you very much Hazel and Osberta! You did a great job!

VEVO is an exciting partnership with Universal Music Group (UMG), Sony Music Entertainment (SME), and the Abu Dhabi Media Company with offices in New York, London, Los Angeles, Chicago, Detroit, and San Francisco.

Our promotional staff were asked to assist at the VEVO summer party and of course we were very happy to oblige. The team worked as hosts and hostesses and provided excellent service including giving technical support for the VEVO app that the guests were trialling.

The VEVO Summer Party 2011 took place at Altitude 360 at Millbank Tower on Wednesday 7th September. It was a corporate music event with a host of celebrities and key media in attendance. Celebrities on the red carpet included: Pixie Lott, Talay Riley, Eliza Doolittle, Loick Essien & Chantelle from Six D, Matt Cardle, Idris Elba, Chipmunk, Emeli Sandé and The World Famous Dixon Brothers. Jessie J was also a hit and took the opportunity to sing her brand new single “Domino” live for the very first time.

Our LOLA promo girls looked stunning in their red dresses from American Apparel and we hear that our promo guys, wearing the red t-shirts, made a great impression on the ladies too! LOLA promotions models were not only the hosts and hostesses for the night, but they supported and advised the guests on a number of products throughout the evening. Primarily our promotional staff worked in the ‘App World’ where they were helping the guests to use the VEVO application on iPads and iPhones.

Many thanks to VEVO United Kingdom for the booking and for a great night to remember!

Here is a picture of 3 of our gorgeous promo girls that took part in the promotional activity for Harlequins Football Club in Kingston Carnival last Sunday!

The theme of the event was: ‘One Kingston. One World. Celebrating Diverse Cultures!’ and LOLA promo girls definitely could feel the spirit! Their colourful uniforms and huge smiles matched well to the overall atmosphere of the Carnival.

Chilly weather and occasional showers did not stop our lovely promo girls from doing a great job even for a minute!

As you can see, LOLA promotional staff brightens up even a rainy day!

Kids Company Superheroes Fun Run

Last Sunday’s Kids Company Fun Run was a chance for the LOLA team to both help a worthy cause and honour some true superheroes.

While most runners on the 5km course went for Superman, Batman and Spiderman; Duncan and Kate decided on The Hoff & Pammy. The justification? They wear less clothes, have more muscles and save more lives than your average superhero.

Some other notable mentions we saw on the day were Gingerbread Man, Buzz Lightyear (and mini Buzz) and Wolfman.

Hoff and Pammy finished credibly somewhere in the middle of the pack, ahead of a slightly chubby Wolverine and behind and elderly Wonder woman.

It was a lovely day and a pleasant Sunday run through Regent’s Park for a great charity. Well done guys.

LOLA's Grace is music to MUFC's ears

Dr. Dre’s L.A. office called on the LOLA promotional team last week to help them make an international delivery.  LOLA’s lovely new promo girl Grace got the call up as they came to Manchester to launch Dre’s new Beats headphones at the Manchester United training ground.

Sets were personalised for the full Manchester United team, and presented by Grace to each individual player in between their very busy training schedule.  A lot of fun was had by all, though we’re not sure who was the bigger hit, Grace or the headphones…

FIA - A great campaign and a great cause

Here’s one of our lovely promo girls Ella as the face of an FIA campaign that’s going worldwide!

Very exciting to see a giant Ella on the side of a major London landmark.

A great cause to support.

LOLA Team Supporting our charity - Kids Company

Some of the LOLA team escaped the office for the day and joined the gang from Kids Company at Falconbrook Primary School in Clapham for a day of cooking with the kids.

The kids were a very happy, very fun band of sixth graders who revelled in the attention from the LOLA ‘so-called cooking experts. We made omlettes, cous-cous and smoothies. Most of the food went down very well and anything green on the plate went on the floor or in the bin! It seems we still have a way to go to encourage healthy eating.

Nevertheless, it was a fabulous day and a very worthwhile cause. Anyone reading this blog we urge you to get behind Kids Company, a great charity doing some wonderful work for many children across the country.

The Only Way is Essex - Vajazzle launch

Mark_3

Some of our sexy LOLA promotional staffing ladies had the pleasure of being ‘Vajazzled up’ for the launch of a TOWIE collaboration with Vajazzle Me (www.vajazzle.me.uk) last night.

One of the show's stars Mark Wright seemed more than happy to promote the product as he posed with a group of our gorgeous promo girls at the launch in London yesterday.


Grinning as he pointed to the diamante embellishment on our promotional staff member Elizabeth Eastman's stomach, Mark lived up to his player reputation at the event, held at Signor Sassi Italian restaurant in Knightsbridge.

The popularity of the vajazzle, where diamantes are placed delicately on a woman's nether regions, has increased massively and of course we here at LOLA were only happy to be on hand to help.
