Summer Shoe Inspiration

Hey guys!

-

I'm doing a summer shoe inspiration post today because today it was so sunny it was amazing! I realised I actually have no summer shoes when I was looking for something to wear walking the dog. Sure I have the ankle boots, Ugg boots, and the hi-tops, but no sandals or flip flops. I have been looking at some styles that I was thinking for summer, and here they are.

-

-

So at the bottom are some T-Bar sandals with real leather and multicolours beads. I have never brought any T-Bar sandals, but they look a little more supportive and comfortable. 

The other pair of flip flops are black with a heel strap with some sparkle on the front. These are similar to the style what I usually wear, however I would prefer these in tan because they are more summer.

The pair above that are a style that I have never tried before. These are better for evening wear as they are a little more robust and expensive. I wouldn't really wear these to the beach because again they are a little too expensive for that.

Next are the classic white converse that have been in my wardrobe forever. Unlike most, mine are pretty clean and in good shape. However people that don't already own converse often wonder which colour to get as the whites the dirty easily, however grey/other colours aren't too summery.

Finally the mary-jane style shoes are a pair that I have always wanted to try. Especially today when I saw a cream pair with some pretty spring pastel blue frilly socks. 

-

I hope you guys have seen some shoes that you like, because I am really excited to buy some summer shoes. Thank you for reading everyone and have a lovely day!

Love Claudia

Seeing Red

Hello everyone!

-

Today is a different post to the usual beauty posts because it's my very first fashion post! I say that All That Sparkles is a beauty, fashion and lifestyle blog but I don't think I have ever done a fashion post. So after reading OK! today I saw their fashion edit and a couple of pictures of celebrities wearing red on the red carpet and I thought I would write this post. Now this article says 'Punctuate your winter wardrobe with shades of scarlet' and I know that it's getting into spring and everyone's buying pastels but it isn't officially spring until about midway through March.

-

Valentino Scalloped Heels - £465
I have honestly never seen scalloped edged shoes before but I love these!

Topshop Red Coat - £75
I saw Tanya Burr wearing a baby pink version of this coat in one of her vlogmas video's and I loved it so if you were looking for a spring version of this coat if you prefer

Alexandre Herchcotvitch Autumn/Winter Collection
Was a ready-to-wear collection that including many different trends and he used a lot of black and a bit of red in some of his items
Rimmel Scandaleyes Rockin Curls Mascara - £4.99
Was a mascara that I saw in OK! but I really don't like the fact that they are calling the wand 'Broken hear shaped'.
 Asos Pencil Skirt Wrap - £14
Is absolutely gorgeous and I am really getting into these wrap-styled skirts and this colour is gorgeous.
Catherine Tyldsley BAFTA Awards
Catherine wears red a lot mainly because I think it complements her skin tone beautifully and this dress is a more coral colour but it's still lovely. The famous fashion faux pas of wearing red on the red carpet was long forgotten when Catherine showed off her flawless size 10 figure at the BAFTA's.

So I hope you guys liked my first fashion post on my blog which has been long overdue and thank you for reading! Just to let you know Tanya Burr's Lips And Nails collection is coming out on www.feelunique.com at 6pm tomorrow!

Little Make Up/Beauty/Everything Haul

Hi guys!

-

If you saw my google+ post this morning then you will know that I was doing the photo every hour challenge today so because it isn't the end of the day yet I haven't stopped taking photos yet so that post will be up either later or tomorrow morning. Anyway today I went shopping and brought a load of products from body butter to nail varnish and here are some photos of what I brought.

-

 Barry M Nail Varnish Left to right - Gelly Mango, Peach Melba, Ridley Road - £9.98

 Lasting Perfection Concealer By Collection in Shade 1 - £4.19

 The Body Shop Passion Fruit Body Butter - reduced to £5

 MAC Satin Taupe Eyeshadow Pan Palette Re-fill - £10

 Keri Smith Wreck This Journal - £8.99

-

So I think what I love the most that I brought was my Wreck This Journal which I LOVE already! I also really like the concealer it is amazing after I brought the wrong colour last time I had dismissed it but I am so glad I gave it another try! Also I love the Satin Taupe colour from MAC to add to my palette however I have had to remove Sumptuous Olive and Sketch now because I have a quad. The Body Shop Passion Fruit smells like really fruity, summery yoghurt. That sounds really weird but if you get chance to smell one you will know what I mean. I am wearing the Barry M nail varnish Ridley Rode in my photo challenge post and it is a really cool texture like sugary-ish or something!

-

Just a little disclaimer I don't do these posts to show off or promote any products I only do them because you guys love them and I get requests to do them all the time! Thanks for reading everyone and I apologise for not posting recently do two posts today to make up for it! Check you g+ feed for when my next post goes live or follow me on google+ using the g+ icon on the right!

Pucker Up: Edition 2

Hello everyone!

-

This is another edition of Pucker Up this time including a range of lip glosses rather than lipsticks. If you missed the first edition you can either see it below this post or go to the post direct from my g+ page (find it using the g+ picture on the right). So I will be using a range of glosses from different brands and the pictures will not be my own.

-

-

MAC Lipglass In Fashion Whim is my idea of the perfect coloured lipgloss. This colour almost matches MAC Blankety which is one of my first lipsticks I every brought from MAC.

Nars Orgasm Lipgloss is a beautiful lipgloss that was featured on my 'First Lust List of 2014' post a few days ago and I mentioned how much I wanted it but found it too awkward to ask for the product from my parents.

Rimmel London Apocalips Lipgloss In Luna is actually product I have not tried yet but I think my mum has it so before I buy it I will give a test run!

Bobbi Brown Lipgloss In Baby Pink is a shade that has just been released that I love and it looks like the kind of colour that it substantial enough to wear without a lipstick underneath.

Tom Ford Lipgloss In Peach Absolut is kind of similar to the Topshop orange lipstick I featured in edition 1 of pucker up so I would probably wear this £32 gloss over that lipstick.

-

Thank you for reading and the lovely amazing comments and emails about how much you guys liked the first edition of this small series. The final edition is coming tomorrow!

First Lust List Of 2014

Hi guys!

-

As you may know I love 'lust lists' or 'wishlists' so I decided to write one for you guys!
-

The Essie Summer Collection 2014 was recently shown to me by my friend Meg who brought one recently. She wore the purple colour 'Full steam ahead' today and it looked amazing!

Nars Orgasm Lip Gloss is a product that I have wanted for a while now but I don't really want to put it on my christmas/birthday list or even buy it myself because I will have to say the name of the product and because I look a lot younger than I am I think it will be pretty embarrassing.

Jo Malone Blackberry And Bay is one of my favourite Jo Malone scents. This product is actually on my birthday list this year but it is quite expensive so I will use this product lightly!

Nars Laguna Bronzer is something that everyone talks about as the be all and end all bronzer of all time!

Topshop Glow Highlighter as a product that really interests me as I have never owned a really good highlighter before so I hope this one will be a stand out product of 2014.

Zoeva Buffing Kabuki Brush is so intriguing because I have never owned a kabuki sized buffing before.

MAC Hang-Up Lipstick is in a colour that I have craved for a while. I have always wanted to dare myself to buy this colour but maybe sometime in the near future I will be more confident to try this product.

-

So I hope you guys liked this post! Thank you very much,

My Favourite Cosmetic Products At The Moment

Hi everyone!

-

I know I have done a lot of these round ups/lists recently but I had a few favourites I wanted to share with you guys!

-

There are 5 items that I may have used/mentioned before in posts so sorry if some are repeated.

 Left to right - Clinique Superprimer, Rimmel Match Perfection Foundation shade 2, Garnier Roll on shade

 This is a mini version of the Charles Worthington heat protection spray and unlike other products it doesn't leave my hair feeling sticky

 I have been loving this mini Dior Addict lipgloss. It came in a set I got quite a while a go but I still love this product. It's quite a light pink colour and I wear it over my MAC blankety lipstick. I also think this gloss will look really pretty in spring/summer.

 Just a closer look at the products

Make sure to comment your favourite product because I love to read your guys comments!

Revlon Creme Brulee Lip Butter Review

Hi guys!

-

Yesterday I brought a Revlon lip butter after I heard Tanya Burr say how much she loves them! Personally I am not very daring with colour so steered away from the neon orange and hot pink and went for the subtle colour 'Creme Brulee'. This colour actually reminds me of my MAC blankety lipstick because it's quite a dark pink nude colour. The product was £7.99 which is quite a lot for basically a tinted lip balm, however I do think that pricing them higher than a Baby Lips is correct because Baby Lips are lip balms where as Revlon lip butters a more lipstick-like and they are packaged much more tastefully.

-

So as you can tell the packaging is pretty classy for a drugstore product. I think Revlon really excel in their packaging because the products look pretty counter-worthy to me. 

 The packaing of the actual lip butter is not what you would expect of a normal lip balm type product because this is more lipstick-type packaging, also my Chanel lipstick has a very similar tube part except you get a lot less with the Chanel lipstick.

 As you can tell from the swatch the product is quite shimmery and not matte at all. I would wear this over a lipstick for moisture and shine and maybe on it's own for a daytime look.

 If you can't see what the writing says it's - 095 Creme Brulee

 Sorry about the little chip on the side of this lipstick, when I was putting the case on the lipstick I wasn't looking what I was doing and chipped it (this has happened twice now). The one thing I don't like about this product is the amount of product you get. In the picture this is about half way rolled up, add about half a centimetre and that is literally all the product you get so I would find myself re-purchasing this a lot.

-

Overall this product is one of my new favourite products and I can see myself buying quite a range of colours from this line. Comment below your favourite colour!

Beauty Bucket List

Hello everyone!

-

I was planning to write another post today but the video wouldn't upload so I decided to write a beauty bucket list! I'm just going to get straight into this post because I'm really excited to write this one!
-
1. Own one of every MAC product for a daily routine
I'm actually half way there with this and the only products I'm missing are - Primer, Foundation, Liner and Mascara then maybe a Lipgloss if it was really necessary that day.

2. Wear a red lipstick in the day
I'm far too scared to wear a red lipstick in the daytime. At night I would wear one but I have no confidence to wear one out and about say to go shopping.

3.Have a spa day
I'm only 14 so this is pretty difficult at the minute but when I get older I want to spend one day a month at the spa for a package like massages, facials and just relaxing.

4.Dye job
I know I recently got a new hair colour but it was pretty subtle so in the future I would like to go for a dramatic change in colour just because I love experimenting with my hair colour.

5. Own one of every scent from Jo Malone
Jo Malone is my favourite brand of perfume and even though it's a little pricey, for me it beats every other brand of perfume and my favourite scents are blackberry & bay, and pomegranite noir.
-
So there they are! Comment your beauty bucket lists! Thanks for reading everyone!

Fashion Q&A

Hey everyone!

-

If you follow me on google+ (use the icon on the right) then you would have seen my post about today being a fashion Q&A saying you guys can email me questions! I got lots of lovely questions so here are my answers!

-

What should I wear in spring when the weather's cold?

This is quite difficult to keep up with pastels in the freezing cold so I would suggest buying spring coloured jumpers so lilac, baby blue, light apple green, and baby pink. 

What is your favourite Topshop collection at the minute?

I love Topshop so this question is very easy - Tokyo Bloom. The items in this collection are gorgeous and my favourite item is a satin rose champagne coloured camisole with black, purple and yellow floral print with a subtle marble print.

Favourite winter bag?

I usually love tan bags for some reason but black bags are for winter so I would say it's my French Connection black Clarissa shoulder bag which is £89.

Summer sunglasses?

These are actually again from topshop and they are really classic sunglasses. I used to have Raybans and I loved them but I lost them on holiday so this year I'm going straight to Topshop for these!
