Ted Baker Lip Crayons

Hello my berries,

So, I got a set of 4 lip crayons recently and I have been absolutely loving them. All 4 of them are for the girl who loves bright and bold lip statements so if your into subtle shades then these definitely aren't for you.
Firstly, the packaging is lovely, all 4 come in a little tin and there all displayed nicely. The tin is beautifully decorated and a great thing to put on a dressing table as its so dinky and pretty. I really love the formulation of them as they are very creamy and glide on easily, without clinging to dry patches which is one thing I hate about really matte lipsticks. They are very moisturising and make your lips look a lot fuller than they are, and who doesn't want plump, kissable lips? They also last amazingly well on the lips, and when they do start to fade they don't go all patchy and make your lips look weird which is another thing I love about them.
I highly recommend picking them up as soon as you can because they are a really great buy for any girl that loves bold lips and a great present to as the packaging is so nice, they are quite affordable at £12.95, which I think is amazing considering Ted Baker is a higher end brand.
Enjoy the pictures of me modelling all of the lip crayons!

These 2 shades are definitely my personal favourites, the bright red and the light pink!

Unfortunately the shades aren't named, but going anti-clockwise, the red shade, the dark pink shade, the light pink and the deep purple.

See you soon! I hope you all have a wonderful week :)

Fashion trends for Spring time

Hello my berries,

So as said in my last post, spring is here! I mentioned a few makeup trends so I thought that it would only be fair to mention a few fashion trends for spring time. Now, I'm sure like me you have all spent your time all cosy in your home, locked away from the outside world in woolly jumpers and furry socks, hibernating. But now, its time to get back outside and here are a few ways to be fashion ready!

1. PASTEL colours!
This is a really big trend this season and pastel colours look beautiful on any skin tone. Minty greens and baby blues are definitely the most frequent to come up in designs and they really do look sophisticated and put together. You'll have no trouble finding pastel pieces either they are everywhere- I recommend ASOS for finding pieces though because they are all over their website!

2. Boxy jackets
The fit of boxy jackets somehow really flatters the body, and gives you a really beautiful silhouette. They come in a variety of patterns and prints so you can find one that really suits your personality, they can also jazz up the plainest of outfits. A tank top and jeans paired with a textured boxy jacket would be a really lovely outfit.

3. The Shift blouse
The shape of a shift blouse is just like a boxy jacket, more masculine fitting clothing is all over the runway. They make your shoulders look more broad and add shape to your body. Again, they come in all different patterns and textures so what are you waiting for, go out and get one!

That's just a few of the trends this season, other trends include collarless coats, wide leg trousers and bomber jackets!

See you soon
Beauty Berry xoxo
