Aside
Beauty Gifts That Will Spoil Your Sister Rotten!
Aside from the metrosexual men and the pretty party pals in your life, it's the most fun to swarm your sister with all kinds of fun beauty products. The bonus is that she'll share them all with you, so essentially you get to test out everything you've ever wanted and bask in the happiness of allowing your sister to keep everything. OK, well, maybe she's not quite into sharing just everything, but it's certainly worth a shot!

Trend Alert: Tassle Handbags
Whilst out and about on the High Street, I have noticed a growing number of tassles adorning handbags. I find the addition slightly distracting and if I see a friend with the style, I feel the need to play with the adornment slightly!
The distraction aside, I like the style and think it's a great way to give your accessories a unique feel.
Trend Alert: Polka Dot Bikini
