Swansea Sparkle

It's a big weekend for the Glamour & Sparkle team.

Not only are we taking the glamour to Rotherham for the Beaumont Society's 21st anniversary weekend, we are thrilled to announce that we will also be taking part in the inaugural Swansea Sparkle festival.

This promises to be a wonderful day out for everyone at the magnificent Brangwyn Hall. The day gets underway at 11am and is expected to roll on past midnight, so don't forget to rest those tootsies when you get the chance!

As ever we will be bringing a wide range of items with us for you to enjoy. In addition to handbags, earrings, bracelets, bangles, necklaces - pretty much everything a girl could possibly need on the jewellery and accessory  front - we will also have an assortment of glamorous evening sets and tiaras that are just perfect for the party season.

We will also have Miss Lexie Lixx making her bow (that should be curtsy, surely?) as a salesgirl so make sure you come along and say hello.

See you in Swansea!

Rotherham Glamour

On Saturday November 17 Glamour & Sparkle are delighted to announce that we will be at the Beaumont Society Weekend in Rotherham.

This is the 21st anniversary of one of the biggest events in the calendar and promises to be a fantastic weekend, with plenty of opportunities to glam up and enjoy Saturday night's Diamonds & Tiaras theme.

We will have our customary wide range of jewellery for you to peruse at your leisure, an outstanding selection of tiaras and evening sets that will be just perfect for Saturday night, as well as some special festive items that are guaranteed to put a smile on your face this Christmas.

We look forward to seeing as many of you as possible.

Diamonds And Demons

It's close to that time of year again where failing to dress up in something suitably outrageous and fun is little short of a dereliction of one's duty as a girl.

The occasional pair of comfy shoes can be excused as a necessary evil and Bridget Jones pants can be regarded as just about acceptable in the direst wardrobe emergency.

However, when a girl turns her back on Halloween and passes up the chance to cast a spell over her dream man, then she forfeits her basic Female Rights.

Female Rights are a bit like Human Rights only more fun (and have absolutely nothing to do with real witches like Cherie Blair).

A girl's inalienable Female Rights include the right to bear mascara and lipstick; the right to carry a gorgeous handbag and the right not only to wear, but to look damn good in doing so, a short skirt.

Anyway, it's Halloween. So it's a time for naughty witches and sexy bitches, for slutty pumpkins and girls who like sins, for Snow Whites and Cinderellas and the girls who like the fellas to break out their most outrageous fancy dress costumes and enjoy a night to remember.

Of course, anyone can wear a costume. But can they accessorise it correctly?

Somewhere in the back of her wardrobe, our very own Lexie Lixx has a glamorous musketeer outfit - the girl has always been rather adept at handling a sword. On its own the outfit makes her look like the darling of 17th century Paris.

But throw in the right accessories - a pearl choker here, the right earrings there - and the girl would have D'Artagnan snapping his sword in his enthusiasm to get to grips with her.

Not that he'd have much luck; our girl may have a penchant for French lingerie and perfume but when it comes to the French themselves it's a definite, "Non, monsieur," with the possibility of a, "Peut-etre, mademoiselle," depending on how much Chardonnay she's sunk.

Anyway, the point is that the right accessories can take all you horny devils to higher levels when it comes to applying the finishing touches to your Halloween outfit.

Glamour & Sparkle are delighted to announce that we have a fantastic range of Halloween-themed jewellery available this year.

We've got skull rings and bracelets, coiled snake rings that will help you wrap your prey around your finger and a wide choice of seductive spider jewellery that will help you weave a web of intrigue and leave the world at your mercy.

So check out our exciting range (we don't do cauldrons) and allow us to help you cast a spell this year.

The devil's in the detail, girls.

Eastbourne Bound

With the days getting shorter - good news for all the girls who like to party all night - it's the perfect time to head to the coast to catch a little late Autumn sun.

This weekend the magical Glamour & Sparkle boutique will be appearing in Eastbourne for the Transliving Autumn Weekend.

The event runs from Friday afternoon through to Sunday evening at the picturesque Haddon Hall Hotel and is regarded as one of the highlights of the calendar.

Glamour & Sparkle will be in residence from 11:00am at Haddon Hall on Saturday and we have some fantastic new items for you to look over at your leisure, including our range of Halloween goodies that are guaranteed to raise an eyebrow or two.

For those of you who prefer your jewellery understated, we will have a wide assortment of rings, necklaces and earrings on display so there's sure to be something that catches your eye.

For full details of the weekend please check out the www.transliving.co.uk webiste.

We look forward to saying hello to you in Eastbourne.

Sparkling Spider

Little Miss Muffet was afraid of spiders. Consequently conventional wisdom suggests that all girls should be afraid of spiders.

Of course, if we're seeking inspirational advice from nursery rhymes and fairy tales, we can all rest assured that we're destined to end up with a handsome prince.

Life being what it is the average girl is more likely to wind up with three bears or doing the cooking and cleaning for seven dwarfs - especially if she likes wearing heels.

Yet regardless of what fairy tales and nursery rhymes claim to have in store for us, there's no reason for any girl to be startled by this particular arachnid.

This black eyed diamante spider ring is a stunning piece that is guaranteed to sparkle and catch the eye and also strike fear into the heart of any unwanted admirer who seeks to get too close.

We can't guarantee that wearing this ring will enable you to spin a silken web of intrigue and mystery and leave your prey helpless, but we do know that anyone lucky enough to feel this delightful spider's touch will instantly lose any fear of creepy crawlies.

What's more, at just £9.99, this sparkly spider is even cheaper than the average bowl of curds and whey, so there's no excuse for all you glamour girls, black widows and Miss Muffet-wannabes not to add this piece to your collection!

A Big Thank You For A Big Weekend

We'd just like to take this opportunity to thank the organisers of the Big Weekend at Pink Punters.

We had a lovely time and would like to thank everyone who put so much hard work into making it a real success. Thank you also to everyone who stopped by to see us.

We're already looking forward to the next event and can't wait for our next trip to Pinks.

In the meantime we will be back on the road in our familiar location at the Cosmopolitan Hotel in Leeds for the next First Friday event.

We're bringing the bling and have plenty of new items that we feel sure will put a spring in your step and a glint in your eye as you prepare for the party season, so stop by and see us on Friday night.

The Big Weekend

Well, girls, we hope you're ready for a long weekend of partying.

This weekend we're heading south to Pink Punters for the Big Weekend extravaganza.

It promises to be a fantastic event, kicking off on Friday 14th and then spilling over into the early hours before the girls regroup and reconvene for round two on Saturday afternoon.

Glamour & Sparkle will be there on Saturday - we'll also be there on Friday night, sashaying rhytmically across the dancefloor with a glass of something fizzy and fruity in hand - and we'll be bringing plenty of goodies with us.

In addition to a wide range of earrings, bracelets and brooches, we'll be unveiling our latest collection of evening sets and tiaras.

We have some beautiful pieces on offer - just the ticket if you're looking for something to ensure you stand out at the Enigma Ball in November.

So whether you're looking for a choker you'd be choked to miss out on, a tiara to bring bitter tears of jealousy to the eyes of your friends or diamantes to die for, drop by and see us on Saturday afternoon! 

We look forward to seeing you this weekend - check out the Pink Punters website for more details.
