Blogger Challenge ~ Fantastic Fashion Gifts for £35 or less

Hello cuties,

I've joined another Blogger challenge from http://www.giftsvouchers.co.uk/. They sent me a personal mail to join this Challenge. I didn't see the message till 2 days ago.
This challenge is about looking for 5 different fantastic fashion gifts each no more than £35.
Well people tend to see the word "fashion" and immediately think about clothes, shoes and jewelry.
Well I thought about other things. Things that would be really usable in your daily life, that will still make you fashionable and don't break the bank. Cause we all know we don't really have to shop till we drop NOW!! December is coming soon and we will have to save the money to do some Black Friday shopping.

So let's start with these gifts. I choose gifts that I could give my fellow Bloggers. Even though its only 5 gifts.

First gift is an Nerd Herder gadget wallet.

When I saw this wallet I went crazy !! I am saving up for an Iphone and I know allot of other friends of mine that are too. And this is a nice way to keep your Iphone safe and your money. All things together in one place. This wallet is so good and it is so affordable.

Nerd Herder Gadger wallet     £18.46
With a shipping of less than £5.00

Nail Affair | Spook me out [Marvel nails]

Hey cuties,

It's almost Halloween, in two days you guys can go crazy and all out with dressing up, make up and nails.
Since I did allot of spooky nail designs I thought of a more cute one this time. The Heroes from Marvel.

Allot of you guys will be dressing like them so why not do the nails like them too.
Or just for the ones that aren't doing anything. Stay home and paint your nails. It's not like you have to get rid of the design by the next day. Marvel nails isn't only Halloween related. They are just something you can wear all year long.

From left to right : Superman, Wonder woman, Captain America, Flash, Green Lantern

To find out how to do this design check the tutorial out:

Have fun doing this design and send me pictures on twitter if you guys try it out.

Nail Affair | Spook me out [Creepy Halloween nails 2]

Hey cuties,

Monday I started the Halloween Nail Affair series, Spook me out!
We did the first set of mismatched nails for you guys to try out. Mix them with each other or just pick one and do that design on all nails.

Now this tutorial I didn't film it. I thought of just showing pictures how to do it since not everything should be video made. I will explain what to do and hopefully you guys will understand.
So let's start with looking at the whole design.

This design consists of 5 different designs. And like all Halloween tutorials I will be doing you get a variety to choose from. And there is always a plain one for the less daring girls out there.

It's my Birthday and I'll cry if I want to.

Hey cuties,

Well I guess the title says it all. It's my birthday today.
I turned 20 so that means I'm leaving the 10 something boat.

I don't really know what to post about so I guess I'm just going to thank God for giving me another day in life. For turning 20 years old, for accomplishing so many goals in life, for not giving up on life.
Also for giving me hope, patience and the ability to love.
Now you guys may think this is not a relevant post to a fashion blog site, but we often forget these and I just wanted to remind you guys that every day you wake up just thank who ever you believe in that they woke you up another day, that they gave you another day to live your life to the fullest.

So now I'm going to try to have fun, since I have school till 5 o'clock ... Not the best way to start off your Birthday.
Follow me on twitter to find out what I did, or just wait till I make a blog post about it... Or not !!

Have a nice day :)

Inspiration from all over #003

Hey cuties,

Gotta love the inspiration we get from all over the world.

This weeks CuraGlammer : Jahzara Accessories

Hey cuties,

This week you guys are going to meet a girl that has her own accessories store. She is getting very successful and I wanted her to share her story with you guys.

 Name: Marvienne Cordelia

Nickname: Vientje, Jahzara

Age: 24

Occupation: Owner at Jahzara Accessories, Co-owner at Kompiutertekniko

Hobby: Writing, Doing nails, Reading, Making jewelries. 

Tell us a little about yourself.

I am a very friendly person, funny and always have a smile on my face. I love to support my people and going out. I also love eating out. 

Describe your personal style.

I love colors allot, but sometimes you can find me wearing black. I love skinny pants and cute shirts. If the shirt is colorful it's better. I love earrings and rings. Sometimes I like to have unique things (everyone right?), like a huge lip necklace.

I don't like wearing heels, I like wearing flats and wedges. (OMG I love wedges) Also I am not into make-up, like foundations and things like that, just my pink lipstick and eyeliner. 

Tell us about Jahzara Accessories.

My lovely business!

The name Jahzara is an African name and it means Blessed princess. 

When was your business founded?

The company was established the 15th of August 2011. It's growing so fast and I'm proud of that. 

Since the store is called Jahzara Accessories it must be that you sell accessories. What are all the items that you sell?

Let me first say that my goal is to sell like everything a Diva girl can think about. One of my goals and that will become reality really soon. 

Now we are selling make-up, necklaces, earrings, wallets, bags and rings.

What or who inspired you to start your business?

I have to say I don't have something or someone that inspired me. Let's say the stores that sell accessories, jewelries gave me some ideas, but not really inspiration. I just wanted to work for myself and sell something I like, like jewelries.

Do you have international costumers?

Yes, I have international costumers. When I started I wished I could have had some international costumers and now I have some, so I am really excited. I hope they keep growing! Here is a video of one of my international costumers, she did a review of the items she bought from me.

Where do you see yourself with your business in 5 to 10 year?

I think I will be bigger in a couple of years. Let's say I hope so. I am doing my best and with God by my side I will surely make it. 

How can we contact you if we want to buy some of your items?

OOTD | October Wedding

Hey cuties,

Last Wednesday my uncle got married. I was invited since May when he proposed so I searched for my dream dress that I wanted to wear.
When I found it it was expensive as hell. A $750 gown that may not even arrive as neat as I wanted.
So I decided to go to my sewer and ask her to make it for me.
The color is a popping yellow that allot of people doesn't have the courage to try on cause they are afraid of using colors.

The dress I chose was this one.
