event

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'it happens' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'a woman's not' is the wordplay.
'a woman' becomes 'eve' (Eve is an example).
'not' becomes 'n't' (synonyms).
'eve'+'nt'='EVENT'

'loveless as' is the link.
This may not be correct. Some or all of it may belong to another bit of the clue.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for event that I've seen before include "special occasion" , "Fixture" , "'Occurrence, occasion (5)'" , "What will happen" , "pole vault maybe" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
