DISCOVERING IT: MICHELLE PHAN MAKE UP + GIVEAWAY

In BeautyCelebrityGiveaway on October 25, 2013 at 8:09 pm

Flames, I am super excited talking to you today about Youtube’s make up guru Michelle Phan’s make up line emcometics!

Let me just quickly let you into how I could get my hands on these amazing samples from the cosmetic line of the girl who conquered the world with her truly incredible Youtube tutorials, where she is basically fullfilling any make up dream that we could have dreamt of. A friend of mine happened to be at this year’s SMWLA- the Social Media Week in Los Angeles, where Michelle Phan has been amongst speakers like Aimee Song and WhoWhatWear, representing her impressive brand emcosmetics and her role as stylist on ipsy.com, of which she is also founder. My friend told one of Michelle’s assistants about my blog, which has been perused on spot, so that the best shades were chosen for my skin type and look. I was given the power suit out of Michelle’s career life collection from her life palette, which I am wearing in the photos – and I think it was a perfect choice. I completely love my look wearing em and the fact that these colours are rich and intense, with perfect coverage and long lasting too, since I wore my look until late at night

I was also so kindly given an eye palette- the Bali Bronzes out of her artistic eye colour palette and from her shade play lip colour mixing palette the adorable mix it up pinks, which I would have picked for myself for sure. Michelle’s make up range is all-embracing wonderful, making choices hard to the extend that we will say in the end: I want it all! The concept behind all of these wonderful palettes is that – like a true artist – one can mix colour shades and like that play with light, contour and reflection to create the desired look. I eventually decided to treat my lovely Flames to these special make up goodies!

FALL IN LOVE WITH REISS SPRING/SUMMER + GIVEAWAY!

In British FashionGiveawayShopping on February 27, 2013 at 8:02 pm

Flames – February certainly is a very romantic month of the year, if you look at it in a way that it marks the end of winter and very early beginning of spring – finally those dark and grey days do seem to come to an end – and with that the chance to flaunt our cutest dresses and most coveted accessories and – of course – our most radiant selves.

Updating your spring wardrobe is without a doubt obligatory – a new spring season means a new you, wouldn’t you agree? Each time I look at anything new coming in from Reiss SS13 Collection the wait for the change of season and warmer weather becomes unbarable. It is the collection that epitomises everything that I want to be right now: pretty, bold, womanly – and very important: urban – REISS always manages to give us that luxury of having something to wear in an everyday situation, but at the same time – when accessorized or styled differently – something to sparkle on a night out.

December GIVEAWAY: BECAUSE I LOVE YOU ALL!

In Giveaway on December 3, 2012 at 4:16 am

Just in time and as promised I have a very special December giveaway for you lovelies! On my way back home from the British Fashion Awards I stopped by the Smythson shop at London Heathrow to update my collection of luxury notebooks. I found this little red beauty and eventually decided to give it to one of my beloved readers as a present!

Who is the lucky winner of my November giveaway I hear you ask? (Drumroll) KRISTY SAMONE! Congrats! I will be in touch with you shortly. Kristy is amongst the most fashionable Flamboyante readers, who is never too shy to share her thoughts on my blog,  so she really deserves it. Plus she has her own blog Kristy Samone, a news style fashion platform for the demanding fashionista that – if you haven’t already- you must check out!

Smythson is known for refined stationery and luxurious handbags – whilst I am dreaming of one day making a Smythson handbag my own, I’m stacking up on note books to carry in said bag. However, the red ‘Everyday I love you’ note book is reserved for one of you.
