Foundations
The Howler Girls were born during London Fashion Week Spring/Summer 10. Natalie and Teresa were sitting in the press room of the BFC tent drinking champagne, thinking of how to get into more shows next season when the idea of a fashion blog was developed. A lot of 'press' at fashion week are fashion bloggers. What more could four girls want than a job related to fashion and all things pretty and expensive?

The name 'The Howler Girls' came about from two things. The first being that else where in the BFC tent a rehearsal was going on and in the background was a Florence and The Machine song (although, now i can't seem to think which one it was) and Teresa, being a fan of Florence asked Natalie if she had listened to their song 'Howl'. The second reason behind the name is 'Harry Potter', for those of you who haven't read the books, there is a type of letter that the wizarding community send each other called a 'howler'. The howler is a letter than screams at you hence the name. Thus 'The Howler Girls' were born.

I think that's all for now. Thanks for reading.
