Review on the Clinique CC cream

Hello Everyone, How has your week been? mine has been all about going to uni, getting work done and preparing for the holiday season. I find that most times I write, I reflect on the impact of uni work on my life but one positive impact is that I have gotten closer with friends and colleagues from Uni and its nice to know that you have people who give 2 British pounds about you. However, back to the topic on ground, I heard of this CC cream craze!!! from a friend at Uni, she had this very obvious dark under-eye circle and she got this product to treat this problem. I am telling you that, in a matter of two weeks this under-eye dark circle vanished and there was an even-toned skin in that eye area. Also, I recommended this product to my sister who had a similar problem and recently I have noticed positive changes in her under-eye area. It will be unfair of me not to speak about this product to you my readers and I will like you guys to leave your thoughts of this product in the comment section.

What Clinique says about Clinique CC cream

This product retails for £28 pounds from the Clinique counter in your local area and can be ordered online from stores such as: Debenhams,Clinique and All beauty.com. This product came in a pastel green rectangular box and a light tan tube as seen above. This product aims to correct redness, sallow, dry and ashy skin and has been dermatologically tested to detect various undertones of skin change. This product is oil free hydration and a sunscreen to protect the skin from sun radiations . Also, you will  have the flawless look after using this product.
 

What I say about Clinique CC cream

I got into the hype of BB creams and CC creams and to be honest, they are a breath of fresh air from the liquid foundations I have used over the years. This CC or BB creams are not suitable alternatives to foundations because they are not full coverage products but it  feels light on the skin.

This product is an amazing alternative to a primer, you can use this product on its own and you will have that no make but make up on look going on. Also, it being used under a foundation would help to correct any redness or sallowness or dark areas on your skin. Also, the product feels very light on the skin [ your face won't feel 5kg heavier]. Finally, for ladies who don't like going through the steps of using concealers-correctors-foundation just to achieve that flawless finish, this product will save you the steps and you will have the flawless look. I suggest the use of fingers to apply this product because the warmth of your skin [fingers] will blend the product properly on your face.

However, this product has its cons. Firstly, I personally think that it is too expensive for what it does but I guess it is a Clinique product and it ought to be expensive. Secondly, it doesn't have a wide variety of shades for women of colour and I personally think that, a beauty brand should make it their top priority to provide a variety of shades for women of colour. Finally, the product may not be suitable for people with oily skin.

I hope this review helps in your selection of beauty products. This particular review was a long-time coming but I have been busy with my preparations for the New Year. If you have any suggestions of beauty products you would like me to review please send me an email.

Thanks for reading and Happy New Year

Best Wishes,

Peace.

Foundation Mania: Nars Sheer Glow Foundation

Hello Everyone, how has your week been? mine has been all about uni work and getting around on campus to different venues for lectures, seminars and all that jazz. I know I have not been posting frequently on my blog and I saw the messages some of you sent me asking when next I am going to post. Well, I am back and I am going to try my best to be quite consistent with my fashion, beauty and lifestyle updates but I dont promise because I know I have a lot on my plate right now.Coming to this post, the review of this foundation is  a long time coming, I saw the feedback on my last review and I noticed that alot of you asked for product recommendation of certain skin types. I have been thinking on your comments and I have decided to do another blog series focussed on product suggestion, how to match your face products and so on. Finally, I will like you guys to read this review and leave feedback in the comment section and dont forget to interact with me on my social media handles at the side of this blog.

About NARS

NARS Cosmetics is a makeup and skin care company owned by Francois Nars, a makeup artist and photographer. This line started with 12 lipsticks at Barneys New York and since then has manufactured more beauty products around the world. The simple packaging was an idea of Fabien Baron which has been seen as a modern  iconic style. Francois Nars started his company campaign in 1996. One interesting aspect of the NARS cosmetics is the erotic names given to the products such as deep throat, orgasm and sex machine and we all who use these products are familiar with the popularity and hype the 'Orgasm Blush' got on the internet. It was awarded the best selling product for three years in a row and because of its massive popularity a collection was created for this blush. NARS products are available worldwide .

Review on the NARS sheer glow foundation

I first heard of this product from Beauty Gurus on Youtube but what moved me to purchase this product was the radiant  finish of the product on the skin. I went to the store and I grabbed mine in the shade 'New Orleans'. I bought this product from a Harvey Nichols store for £30.50 and Its available in House Of Fraser, John Lewis and Selfridges around the UK. I am not sure of where it is retailed in other parts of the world but I know you could purchase it from the NARS online store Here. The foundation comes in 19 shades and I find this surprising because most high-end products don't have variety of shades, that people of different colours can use.I really appreciate that, the product makers put diversity of skin tones into consideration while making this product.

This product came in a simple black packaging and  a very stylish crystal bottle. However, I don't like that there is no pump for the foundation as you all can see in the pictures. The absence of the pump makes it difficult to regulate the amount of product you get on your sponge and this leads to wastage of product or risking the product spilling in your makeup storage. Nevertheless, I like the overall packaging of this product, it well represents the style and professionalism of its owner.

This product has no SPF [Sun Protection Factor] and it is a water based foundation. Therefore, this product is more suitable in the studio and for nights out rather than daytime makeup.This product is quite oily  and gives  a radiant shine on the skin, its not a matte product and therefore is more suitable for normal to dry skin. I will not recommend you purchase this product, if you have oily skin because it produces more oils as you go along the day and causes a lot of shine on the t-zones of the face.However, for my readers with dry skin, you will enjoy this product because it is quite hydrating on the face and reduces any chances of dryness on the skin. In my candid opinion, this product does not have a long-hour wear and can only last for 6 hours maximum on the face. 

When I bought this product, the beauty consultant told me that it was a light weight product on the skin but I must say, it does feel light when applying it on the face but after a couple of hours, I start to feel the weight of the product on my face.However, a blotting sheet will be quite handy when using this product. This product is very liquid and glides on the skin like water so I suggest that before using this product, you give it a good shake so that you could get a good use of the product and a sponge or fingertips is best way of applying this product so as to get a well blended finish on the face. Also, it is important to powder the face or t-zone areas after the application of this product and you will find that the product sits better on the face with powdering on the right areas. 

Overall, I conclude that this product is an amazing product for people with dry skin. I didn't really enjoy this product because I have an oily-normal skin and I will not be repurchasing this product, if I run out of it. However, I must commend the radiant finish it gives to the face after application and its hydrating feel on the skin.

Thanks for reading and have a blessed life.

Best Wishes,

Peace.

Foundation Mania: Review On The Chanel Perfection Lumiere Foundation

Hello Everyone, how has your week been? mine has been good with not much work to do, I have been looking forward to making a post on my blog. I know that I have been MIA [Missing In Action] for two weeks and I have not made a post on this blog.  I will like you guys to stay tuned to the posts and feel free to leave your feedback in the comment section.Also, do not  forget to interact with me on my social media handles at the sidebar of this blog.

About Chanel

Most people are familiar with the brand 'Chanel' for their luxury fashion line, accessories, make up, perfumery and famous quotes. Chanel is a French company owned by Alan Wertheimer and Gerard Wertheimeer, grandsons of Pierre Wertheimer who was partner with Gabrielle Bonheur Chanel, the original pioneer of this fashion business. Chanel is an internationally recognised designer brand, particularly known for their little black dress, No.5 perfume and tweed suit jacket. Most of their fashion designs are inspired by the founder Coco Chanel. She was more concerned with female elegance in dresses, blouses, suits and jewellery of simple designs opposed to over designed and overly fitted clothes that reigned in the 19th century.She made a name for herself by redefining what fashion is, from the over dressed look to a more comfortable and stylish look. Coco Chanel style has inspired celebrities over the years and left an impact in the fashion world. For more information about the company, you could watch the movie Coco Before Chanel.

Review on Chanel Perfection Lumiere

The packaging of this product is simple and stylish [typical for a chanel product], i liked the black rectangular box and gold lining at the bottom. It retailed for £36 from Debenhams in my local area and is available in other department stores like Harvey Nichols and Selfridges around the UK. I am unsure of where it is retailed in other parts of the world but I know you could purchase it from an online store and get free shipping at [Beauty Lish]. 

The chemical content of this product is oil-free and more of titanium dioxide that acts as a sunscreen for the skin. Its has an SPF 10 [ Sun Protecting Factor] that protects your skin from radiations of the sun which causes early aging, sun burns and skin cancer in worst cases.The  SPF content of this  product assures 2 hours of protection from sunlight, which means that you may not find this foundation useful during warmer months of the year, where people take vacations to exotic places or be exposed to the sun for a long time. However, I like this product because it comes in 20 shades suitable for various skin tones and colours ranging from 20 beige- 154 Ambre and my shade is 114 Ambre. I have seen this product used on asian, caucasian and african skin and it looks radiant on everyone who tried it.

Appearance and texture on skin

1. Before Application, 2. After Application without full face routine, 3 (a&b) After Full Face Routine 

The texture of this product is lovely, it has a light-weight feel on the skin as though it were water gliding through your skin. The manufacturers were genuine as they stated that, it is an oil-free product because it has no thicke or cakey feeling on the skin as opposed to most oil based foundations. This foundation is an illuminating product that gives a fresh and youthful glow to the skin as opposed to most matte foundations like the M.A.C studio fix fluid foundation. In my opinion, it has long hour wear that lasts all day without slipping through the skin. For application, I suggest the use of a buffing foundation brush to apply the product on skin for a more airbrushed appearance. However, the downside of this product is that, it causes a lot of shine at the t-zone areas of the face and may not be suitable on an oily skin type.Also, it is not a full coverage foundation, so there is need for correctors and concealers to cover up  blemishes and dark circles on the face. Overall, I will recommend this product to anyone despite its downsides because its an amazing product that is true to its price and lest i forget that it smells great unlike other foundations that I have tried that have no scent. I will suggest that more shades be made for diverse skin tones of women around the world so that more people get to enjoy this product.

Finally, I will re-purchase this product if I ran out of it and I honestly believe that it is a nice product regardless the influence of the brand name.

Thanks for reading and have a blessed life.

Best Wishes,

Peace.

Store Review 2: Sue Ryder Vintage and Retro Store

Greetings

Hello my dear readers, I hope all is well and you are happy with your week, if you are not pleased with your week, I hope this post will cheer you up and a word of encouragement to you so that you know that I care. 

''A word of encourage given during failure is worth more than an hour of praise after success''

This is uplifting for the spirit especially when things are not going as expected, always know that someone out there is ready to give you comforting words to ease the frustrations of life.

However, I present another store review of vintage and retro store  in my local area Leeds, UK.I have decided to incorporate reviews of places, stores and products on my blog. I feel it is a way of engaging the readers and I have noticed that a lot of the readers are quite interested in the detailed information of reviews on my blog. However, I would like you the readers [especially students] to leave a feedback of this review in the comment section and if you live within the Leeds area, you could visit the store.

About Sue Ryder Vintage And Retro Store

Sue Ryder is a National Charity that provides incredible care for incurable illnesses. They have 13 centers across the country that each provide healthcare and support to people affected by life-ending or life changing illnesses as well as their families.Sue Ryder closest care center is Wheatfields Hospice, located only 2 minutes from the shop in Headingley. Wheat field's needs to raise £2.8million each year to run it's services, this is done partly through fundraising but a great deal is still needed each year which is where the retail side comes in.  Sue Ryder currently has over 420 shops in the U.K. with the profits from these shops going directly back into the charity.

Sue Ryder opened their doors in June 2012 with the aim to provide the people of Headingley with a new charity shop experience and with 11 other Charity Shops already in the area, they wanted to stand out and give the charity shop look a make-over.To do this they decided early on to specialize in Vintage and Retro clothing due to it's rising popularity in the local student population.This quirky looking shop attracted not only customers, but also younger volunteers with specific interests in fashion, retail and all things vintage.  With a younger volunteer team they have used their skills to keep the shop current and relevant to our target market, whilst our low prices ensure that customers always come back again.Sue Ryder relies solely on donations,  they have to make the most of every item  gotten, this led us to recruit volunteer seamstresses and start our 'Handmade' section, filled with up cycled items made from items that would have been disposed. 

 The team is  constantly looking for new ideas and ways to use what we have in the most effective way to drive sales.With the student population moving further into the city center, the decrease in customers mostly student has already resulted in the closure of the other vintage shops in the area, leaving us as the only Vintage and Retro Shop in Headingley. Sue Ryder strongly believes that their unique feel, friendly atmosphere and  well priced good quality clothing has been the reason that their sales have steadily increased, despite the competition in their environment.Overall, the ultimate goal for Sue Ryder store has for its customers is to provide an environment where people will enjoy coming to, shop their items without guilt because they know you are spending your money on a good cause.

Pictures of some items in the store

All photographs were taken by me.

What I think of the store

When I first walked into the store, I felt the retro and vintage interior design of the store. The interior was designed in a way that attracts retro and vintage store lovers. The clothing and suitcases sold in the store are contributions of people and organisations in the area. Although, the fashion accessories, musical records and instruments are bought from other stores. I like the arrangement of the guitars and musical records, it completes a vintage and retro store. Also, my favorite part of the store was the accessory section especially the vintage hats. I feel that, it will go well with a little black or white dress and a nice stiletto pumps. However, I was not really into the clothing because I know that, my style is not mainly  focused on vintage clothing and accessories, I just like to get bits and pieces to add to an outfit. Personally, I think the items in the store are selected  mainly for students and some office wear  are available in the store. Overall, I conclude that the mission of this store is to engage people especially youths and students in the Leeds area, provide fashionable clothing for people and provide charity services for people who are in need. Therefore, if you decide to visit this store, you are not being extravagant in fashion, you are supporting a good cause.

Thanks for reading and have a blessed life.

Foundation Mania: Review on Smashbox Studio Skin 15 Hour Wear Hydrating Foundation

Hello Everyone, I hope you had a great week and you are pleased with your goals for the week and if you are not happy with the way the week has gone. I hope this post will cheer you up and make you take life easier, its all going to be fine. Today's post is focused on reviewing one of the high-end foundations in the blog series- Foundation Mania that I posted a while back. I decided to make this blog series because I know that a lot of people like to read reviews of products especially high-end products before purchasing such products. This method is good so that you get the full value of  the money used to purchase products. I will like you to leave a feedback on this review, select the next foundation you would like me to review on the Blog Series: Foundation Mania and if you like tell me your favourite foundation or tinted moisturiser or BB cream or CC cream that you are presently using. 

About Smashbox

The brand Smashbox started as a premier photo and film studio in Los Angeles, where photographers and known celebrities perform various film and fashion photo shoots. Smashbox is owned by two brothers Davis Factor and Dean Factor the great-grandsons of the cosmetic legend Max Factor. This studio was founded in 1990, the business expanded to photo studios, modelling agency, production company, clothing line and later on in 1996 a cosmetic company.However, this company was later sold to Estee Lauder in 2010. In 2002, Smashbox in collaboration with IMG began hosting the Los Angeles Fashion Show. Also, Smashbox hold an annual photography competition called F.A.C.E OFF [Fashion Advertising Celebrity Editorial]. The mission Smashbox had for starting out their cosmetic line is to provide cosmetics that are most suitable for photo shoots. This company has come along way in making an impact in the fashion and beauty industry. 

Review on the Smashbox Studio Skin 15 Hour Wear Hydrating Foundation

The packaging of the Smashbox foundation is a black velvet rectangular box with the image of the foundation on the front of the box. I was not drawn to the packaging because it is not as fancy as other brands packaging that I have seen. Most high-end foundations that I have seen usually have a fancy packaging or bottles to appeal to customers to purchase the product but for this foundation, it seemed that Smashbox was going for a simple and classic packaging. However, the most appealing fact of this product for me is its content. It is a water-based foundation that has a long hour wear on the face, this fact encouraged me to purchase the product when I tried the sample on my face. This product retails for £27.50 from Boots and you could also purchase it from the online store Click Here, it is pretty costly, so its important to read reviews on the product.

This product is cruelty free and environmental friendly, its chemical content is fully water based and oil free. It has no SPF [Sun Protection Factor] that means, it not suitable for the summer period or places of more sunlight. The absence of SPF in the product is to prevent flashbacks in photos, this product is more suitable for photo shoots than for everyday wear and if you still like to wear this foundation out, it will be suitable for night outs because there is no sunlight and even though you had a long night, the product will last on your skin because it has a long hour wear. This product has a limited variety of shades from light- dark, its shades starts from 1.1-1fl.oz./30ml -4.2-1fl.oz./30ml, I was lucky to find my shade but I feel that not everyone can find their shades from this product.

Appearance and Texture  on skin

Before Application  

After Application

The product has a light weight on the skin, it feels like water on the skin. This product has a light to medium coverage in my opinion and cover most blemishes on the skin. I love this product because of its long hour wear and light feel on the skin. This Foundation goes very well with the Smashbox Finish Foundation Primer but if you have any other primer, it will go well with it. I recommend that if you like using foundation on your skin, its best you use a primer before placing the foundation on your skin. The downside to this foundation is that its most suitable for oily to normal skin types. I will not recommend it for someone who has dry skin because your skin need some moisture to eliminate the dryness. Finally, I am pleased with trying out this foundation and if you feel that this product is for you then try it out.

Disclaimer

I was not paid to make this review and I bought the product with my money. Therefore, all that I have said is my honest opinion of the product. Also, all photographs were takes by me.

Thanks for reading and have a blessed life.

Best Wishes,

Peace

Store Review

Gossip Store: ''Its Worth Talking About''

Hello everyone, I hope you are all well and you are happy with your goals for the week, if you are not pleased with your week. I will like you to seat back, relax and reflect on the happy moments in your life and remember that life is one step at a time to get to where you want to be. According to Joseph Campbell ''Find a place where there is joy and the joy will burn out the pain''. I hope this post will cheer you up and make you interested in the information I am about to give on this blog. 

I was walking through the city center of Leeds,UK looking for new outfit pieces to put in my idea book and I saw this vintage store called Gossip. As I walked into the store, I was surprised by the accessories and design of the store, it had this vintage feel, with pictures of vintage celebrities like Marilyn Monroe, Audrey Hepburn and African antiques that greatly inspired my future fashion posts. I walked around the store, looking at the jewelry, bags, clutches and shoes, they were quality materials inspired by pieces of famous designers like Vivienne Westwood, Celine and Alexander McQueen. These items were sold at inexpensive prices which is suitable for students, workers or people who are on a strict budget or do not want to spend too much money on fashion items. I was pleased with the quality of the items I saw in the store because they looked similar to the items we see on models in the runway. Also, I imagined the pieces in one or two future outfits I would wear to go around the city and I used one or two of Gossip items to style some previous outfits that you all have seen in on my blog[Vintage Mix and A story to tell] and I took the photos of those outfits in the store. Gossip pieces are suitable for both casual and evening outfits, each item have individual characters that give a statement to what you are wearing, I was fascinated by the interior decoration of the store and was surprised that such a small retail store could carry such character.

Mission and Vision of Gossip

Gossip store was opened last summer with the mission of providing fashion accessories and selected clothes all in line with the concept of providing boutique clothes without boutique prices. The Gossip store sells its brand items exclusively. The items of this store are carefully selected by the brand owner,his selection of items for the store is determined by his mission for the boutique. The vision held by the brand owner for Gossip is to incorporate a men fashion line called 'SHOUT' to his store. Also, he has a mid-season sale around the corner, so if you live around Leeds you could visit his store.

What I think about the store

The Gossip store is not like your regular vintage store where you buy old items but this store has its vintage items with a modern feel and a touch of African decor that appeals to me. I love the statement  jewelry and accessories in the store, they are affordable, chic, and classy. The store sells clothing, but I wasn't really interested in the outfits because it wasn't suitable for my curvy nature. However, the store is good anyway and I did a video of the store.I would like you guys to feel free to drop your feedback  of the post in the comment section.

Thanks for reading and have a blessed life.

Foundation Mania: Review on the Lancome Teint Miracle Foundation

Hello my dear readers, I hope you all are well and you have met your weekly goals, if you are not pleased with how your week has been, I hope that this post will cheer you up and make you take life easily because you deserve to be happy no matter the condition you are in.However, I have kept my promise to making a review on the foundations I showed for 'Foundation Mania'.The topic of today is focused on the Lancome Teint Miracle Foundation, one of the beauty products of Lancome Paris.

About Lancome Paris

Lancome Paris is a French luxury cosmetics house that sells and distributes its products world-wide. In 1964, this luxury house was bought by L'Oreal and till date L'Oreal owns this luxury beauty brand. Lancome was originally owned by Armand Petitjean in 1935, Petitjean started this company with the intention of establishing a beauty brand that shows French style and elegance around the world. This brand has been represented by actresses, celebrities, make up artists, models and perfumers. All these representatives have given positive reviews about this beauty brand which has gone along way to boost the brand name of this company and increase the distribution of  its beauty products internationally.

Review on the Lancome Teint Miracle Foundation

The Lancome Teint Miracle Foundation is appealing to me because of its crystal-like bottle and its silver packaging. I was drawn to this product for its packaging and the good reviews I heard about from beauty and make up bloggers on YouTube. This product is retailed in stores such as House of Fraser, Harvey Nichols, Debenhams, Selfridges, Covent Garden around the UK, but I am not sure which stores retail this product in other parts of the world. I am certain that, you could purchase the products from the Lancome Paris online store available here. This product is a high-end product, that means its more expensive than other drugstore foundations. This foundation retailed for £27.50 from Boots and I found out that it is more expensive than my regular MAC studio fix foundation that retails for £21.50. I  have studied reviews given on this product and many people had positive things to say about the foundation in context of its packaging, chemical content and durability on the skin.Also, I found out that, this foundation has 18 shades from 005 Beige Ivory to 15 Acajou [ that means from the lightest white to the darkest black]  Finally, I decided to buy this product and use it, for six months to form an opinion.

This foundation is oil free, instead it is an alcohol based foundation. This is an advantage because it reduces the appearance of excess oil on the t-zones after application and reduces your chances of retouching the make up after  hours of applying the foundation. The disadvantage of using an alcohol based foundation is the increased chances of having wrinkles before the right time to have wrinkles, increased breakout on the skin because the alcohol blocks air from entering into the pores of your face.However, don't be discouraged because this foundation contains SPF 5 [ Sun Protection Factor] that protects your skin from the UVA [Ultra Violet A]  and U VB [Ultra Violet B]  rays of the sun that causes sun burns, skin cancer and wrinkles to the skin. The SPF content is gauge to the period of time that a person can be exposed to the sun before getting burnt. SPF 5 means that 50 minutes of how the product will protect your skin from the damages of exposure to the sun. However, if you must know, SPF is one key content that should be found in a skincare product and make up foundation product. In my opinion, the product has a 6 hr wear before wearing out on the face. Also, this product gives a radiant finish to the skin.

Texture and Appearance of the Lancome Teint Miracle Foundation

The texture of this foundation has a light liquid feel on the skin which is expected from an alcohol based foundation. This foundation provides medium-full coverage over the skin. This foundation has a reddish undertone and gives a natural finish to the skin. I prefer using this foundation during the cooler seasons such as Autumn and Winter, because the reddish undertone of the foundation matches the weather and amount of SPF is suitable for these seasons were there is less sunlight. Overall, I like this foundation and though it has some disadvantages like not being suitable for warmer seasons of the year, I believe that it is worth the money.

Requested: Comparisons of this foundation to the Estee Lauder double wear concealer and the Lancome Teint Idole Ultra 24h foundation.

1. Lancome Teint Idole Ultra 24hr Foundation: The Lancome Teint Miracle foundation is a fraternal twin to The Lancome Teint Idole Ultra 24h wear foundation. Both of these foundations are oil-free and alcohol based foundations. The both gives a radiant finish to the skin and have similar feel to the skin. The differences between these products are: the Idole Ultra foundation doesn't have a reddish undertone, the foundation has a 24 hrs wear compared to its fraternal twin. Overall, if I was to suggest the best product among this similar items, I suggest you purchase the Lancome Teint Idole Ultra 24hr foundation, Read More.
2. Estee Lauder Double Wear concealer: Some Ladies, prefer a light- medium coverage look, therefore the use only concealers on their problem areas[ such as under eyes, spots, blemishes and pimples] without the application of foundation. This concealer is an amazing product, it is light on the skin and has a flawless finish. In comparison to Lancome Teint Miracle foundation, I will suggest you chose the Estee Lauder Double Wear concealer if you like that light coverage look. Overall, I love all these products and I hope this review has motivated you to select the kind of foundation you would prefer to have on all year.

Thanks for reading and have a blessed life.

Best Wishes,

Peace.

Meet Kathryn Floral!!!!!!!!

Unwrapping my new love

Kathryn- Size 8- Shoe mint-Stylistpicks.

About Kathryn Floral

I know that you guys would be thinking 'who is Kathryn Floral' but the question is 'what is Kathryn Floral' well let me satisfy your curiosity by saying that Kathryn is a shoe. She is a beautiful stiletto pumps designed by ShoeMint co-owned by Rachel Bilson, Nicole Chavez and Steve Madden.This online store is based in  USA, sells only within the borders of the US and Canada.I bought these shoes from an online store owned by a panel of stylists called Stylist Picks who sell selected designs of ShoeMint shoes in the UK. I wasn't pleased that ShoeMint did not ship internationally because their shoes are gorgeous, thats a thumbs up to Rachel,Steve and Nicole. I chose Kathryn because of her  lovely design, style, pastels, florals,prints and her ability to make the legs longer. There are stiletto pumps designed by both affordable, high-street and high-end designers but I love Kathryn's unique design. You could pair her with a little black dress and warm brown fur or a nice white or lilac peplum or body con dress or skirt but be sure to use colours of the pastels on her.I hope this review was helpful to the readers and have a blessed day.

Night Walk Shoes

Hello to the beautiful viewers of this blog, I hope you all are well and have successfully carried out your regular routines.I decided to post a review on the night walk shoes which I recently purchased.This pair of shoes are available in the regular shoe stores around you and come in both affordable and expensive prices.The images above shows the pair of shoes that I am referring to.The image above shows a heelless shoes with spikes at the rear end of the shoes, the shoes have a high platform at the front but I am unaware of the inches of this platform,it has a strap use to buckle the shoes and the shoes are made of leather.This pair of shoes reminds me of the exact design made by Jeffrey Campbell, his design  is quite expensive and not affordable for every one.Although, his design of this pair of shoes is made of suede material and does not have spikes at the rear of the shoes yet is very similar to the  image above.The image below shows the night walk shoes by Jeffrey Campbell.

I know most people will think it is insane to wear this pair of shoes or may argue that these shoes are highly uncomfortable.On the contrary, I have tried these shoes on and they are very comfortable, this pair of  shoes are like wearing wedge shoes and they are steady and balanced.These shoes are suitable for any edgy outfit of the day and night.It is a trendy shoe and quite classy, if properly matched with a nice gown, clutch bag and beautiful hairstyle to go with it.This is a short review of the night walk shoes and I hope this will encourage the readers of this blog who are interested in my fashion posts to purchase these shoes.Thanks and God bless you all.
