As many of you will already know from following me on Instagram, (@StaceyJSheppard for those of you not already following) last weekend Mr Design Sheppard and I attended the Vuelio Blog Awards 2018 at the Bloomsbury Big Top in London. Now in it’s fourth year, the Vuelio Blog Awards are firmly established as the most respected accolades available to bloggers and each year they recognise the best of the best across a multitude of industries. This year the awards were split into 14 categories from Beauty, Food & Drink, Health & Fitness and Men’s Fashion right through to PR & Comms, Travel & Leisure, Wedding and Women’s Fashion.
The Design Sheppard was shortlisted for an award in the Interiors category for the second year running and it was an absolute pleasure to be able to attend the event again. The spectacular venue makes it feel like a very glitzy event and the entertainment is pretty impressive as you can see.
Unfortunately I didn’t come away with a trophy, but when you’re shortlisted alongside the formidable Kate Watson-Smyth of Mad About The House it really is no wonder. Kate deservedly scooped the award for the third time and I couldn’t have been happier for her. The interiors blogging niche is so friendly and supportive and that is one of the reasons why I’ve been blogging so long. It feels like a lovely little family and attending events like this is made so much more enjoyable as you’re able to catch up with industry friends.
So this is just a short post to share some photos of the evening with you and to say a massive congratulations to Kate! You can check out all the winners of the Vuelio Blog Awards 2018 across all 14 categories here.

Congratulations for making the final. It looks like it was an amazing night. It’s so nice to have an opportunity to get glammed up and see people face to face that you normally converse with via a screen. Love you trying to dodge the camera, too. So funny x
Ha, I felt like it was Kate’s moment and I was photo bombing! lol
I’m gutted I missed it – it looked utterly fabulous again!! Vuelio really know how to put on a party! And I agree – the interior blogger community is so wonderfully supportive so when someone who’s as talented as Kate is recognised, we all get to celebrate together and I’m sure I speak for us both when I say what an honour it is to be nominated! Looks like it was an amazing night :) xxx
It was lovely again but you were definitely missed! It’s so supportive in fact that we had all even discussed that if you won we would all go up together to accept your trophy for you!
