OK so we’ve been to Bestival before. We’ve dressed up. We’ve dressed down. We’ve been face down in the mud after approx 2 hours which is about the same time that our iPhone DIES and we are stuck in said mud making squealing like a pig until someone takes pity on us and returns us to the lost children meeting point (not a highlight of my festival experience/ life).
Even a prolific tweeter (aggressive over sharer) like myself drops off the face of the planet within five seconds of stepping foot into a field due to iPhone spaz out (technical term).
Another particular highlight when plugging my phone in on the train back to London (at 6am, dressed as a leopard, wrapped in a sleeping bag, next to a particularly dapper commuter who turned to me and asked “are you on a school trip”? I was 28) only to receive a text from my mother sent the day before containing only a SAD FACE. when i replied ‘sorry mum I’ve been off my nut at Bestival for the weekend, whats up?’ i was met with ‘it was my birthday yesterday’.
YES I AM THE MOST HORRENDOUS DAUGHTER IN THE WORLD. AND ITS DEFINITELY ALL BECAUSE OF MY PHONE. DEFINITELY.
So when Carphone Warehouse contacted us Le Blow gals and asked us to road test the new Motorola Razr Maxx at Bestival this weekend our first response was: ARE YOU MENTAL?
So appaz Motorola’s long anticipated smartphone has an incredible battery life and all manor of swanky android systems to ensure lightning quick responses and ability to multitask – i.e. update our twitter feed AND locate the nearest bar AT THE SAME TIME. HOLD THE PHONE (literally).
The idea is that it is perfect for those with non-stop hectic lifestyles……. well here at Le Blow we boast a model-come beauty blogger, jet set (ahem) lady buyer, online fashion editor, and Social media Guru amongst others- so I guess you COULD say we smash bang RIGHT into this category.
So, hi-ho, hi -o – it’s off to Bestival we go. and we shall be ONLINE while we are there, tweeting up to the minute informative festival updates (i.e ‘In the mojito tent, send more rum’, ‘I’ve lost my trousers’, ‘is it OK to get off with a boy who’s dressed as a piece of Lego’) from the Motorola Razr MaXx.
NO MORE crawling around the floor of the press tent on our hands and knees (steady) tearing out wires like King Kong to try to get 30 seconds worth of juice to Instagram to shit out of ourselves in fancy dress. YES THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT PRESS BUSINESS.
Wish us luck and Godspeed. Follow us on the Le Blow account as well as @AmyRycroft and @ASOS_Becki to see how we get on…
Aaaand full report when we return. promise (with any luck we will have pictures and tweets to piece together to explain what the ‘eff we got up to – COME ON RAZR MAXX, DO US PROUD…)
