Make Your Mother's Day

There are only a few days to go to one of the most important days of the year, a day when to get things even slightly wrong means a lifetime (well, an hour or two at least) of indignant recrimination and snide comments about wicked children and rhetorical discourses about carrying such an ungrateful burden for nine months.
 
If you're anxious to unleash such a whirlwind of resentment about your head on March 10, then feel free to head off down to your nearest pound shop and snap up a box of Maltesers and the cheapest card you can find - or better yet wait until next Sunday and buy some half-dead flowers from the petrol station - and present them to your mother.
 
On the other hand, if you want to give her a gift that you feel is a suitable token of appreciation for all the sacrifices she has made on your behalf, for all the times she's washed and ironed your clothes, fixed the strap on your favourite shoes, assured you that you're the only one in the family with the ability to look good in that dress and generally kept calm and not freaked out when you've raised the possibility of going out in a frock that could generously be regarded as a little short, then we have just the thing for you.
 
More importantly we have just the thing for your mother.
 
Whether you're after a ring that will make her feel like the central character in her favourite period drama, a necklace that will bring a smile to her face, an elegant bracelet that will go with any outfit, or even an evening set that she can wear the next time she escorts her favourite daughter on a night out - or better yet can flaunt in the face of her friends with less angelic children - Glamour & Sparkle have the right gift for you.
 
Drop by the website to see our fantastic range of gifts that will make your mother's day.
 

Frocks & Rocks

February is drawing to a close which means Lent is in full swing and we're counting down to Easter which - if you're like me - means trying not to worry too much about the effect of too many chocolate eggs.
 
It's hard to accept that something that tastes so good can wreak so much havoc on your hips.
 
Anyway, as a girl who has never really seen the point of denying herself anything - frankly life's too short, I don't have the willpower and how could I be mean to myself when I'm so cute - I'm happy to announce that at Glamour & Sparkle we have some new fantastic new items that we feel sure will put a smile on your face and a spring in your step.
 
This might just be our most fantastic ring yet, something so sparkling and frankly so precious that Gollum really would sell his soul for it.
 
This fabulous ring is guaranteed to get the rocks off of even the most jaded of jewellery aficionados (figuratively speaking of course).
 
Our latest ring is ensured to land not just one, but two knockout blows in the style stakes.
 
The large clear stone is certain to make a statement and is the perfect complement to one's outfit on a night out when you're dressed to impress.
 
At the same time the intricate and incredibly feminine diamante detailing around the side of the ring will catch the light and add extra shimmer to your sashay.
 
We'll be at the Cosmopolitan Hotel in Leeds on Friday March 1 to help you kick off LFF with a bang and to help out with any last minute fashion disasters that may have befallen you.
 
Drop by and see us and check out our new range of rings and things and gasp with delight and amazement at our enchanted selection and wonder just how you managed to live before you tried one of our sparklers for size.

Love Is In The Air

 February 14 is nearly upon us once more, which means it is again almost time to commemorate the Martyr Valentinus who died on the 14th of February on the Via Flaminia close to the Milvian bridge in Rome back in the third century by showering the one we love with chocolates, roses and serious bling.
 
Personally I'm not sure what a Roman saint has to do with being treated to the lingerie and perfume I deserve, but then again I didn't have time to study Wikipedia too carefully.
 
Yet regardless of whether you're counting on your other half to treat you to something special this year, or are simply resigned to pampering yourself or stuffing your face with love-hearts on the perfectly reasonable grounds that all men are twats and you're better off without one, Glamour & Sparkle have selected a fabulous range of jewellery to help you celebrate the day in style.
 
So whether you fancy cutting a dash in rubies, sparkling in diamantes or flaunting a spectacular piece of crystal, we have something that's just right for you.
 
Check out our Valentine's range now!
