Competition: Win tickets to the London premiere of Confessions Of A Shopaholic!

Confessions 1-sheet with release date 05 01 09.jpgThanks to the lovely folks at Touchstone Pictures, Catwalk Queen has managed to get hold of two tickets to the London premiere of Confessions Of A Shopaholic, the new film starring Isla Fisher. And we're giving them away to one of you!

Based on the bestselling novels by Sophie Kinsella, Confessions Of A Shopaholic is the tale of Becky Bloomwood, a shopping-mad fashionista living in New York who dreams of working for her favorite fashion magazine, but can't quite get her foot in the door--until ironically; she snags a job as an advice columnist for a financial magazine published by the same company. As big fans of the books, we're really excited about the film and very jealous we can't keep this prize for ourselves!

If you can be in London in your best frock on Monday night (16th February 09) you and a friend could be schmoozing with the stars on the red carpet. Keep reading for details...
