Having always admired companies who work hard to be different, I have followed Trollbeads for quite some time. Earlier in the summer I entered a competition of theirs to win a beautiful 2016 bracelet, and I was extremely lucky to be chosen as a winner.
Once I had received the bracelet I was over the moon with the details and the quality. So impressed in fact that I have decided to review the piece, and photograph it in macro detail so that you can see the quality first hand.
Once I have shown you my photographs I will give you some information about Trollbeads and where you can purchase a bracelet and charms for yourself. And I will give my final review scores of course. I hope you enjoy looking through my set of images.
As you can see from the images I have made of the bracelet, the quality and the attention to detail speaks for itself. Beautiful craftsmanship of the bracelet and the charm, as well as the unique looking clasp. The intricate bracelet itself with the chain is stunning against the skin, and with the addition of charms it can be made to be unique for the person purchasing it. I won the clover charm and clasp, which are three dimensional, highly detailed pieces.
Trollbeads sent me this stunning bracelet in its very own bag, which brands the logo and date of the original founding of the company. Trollbeads originated in Copenhagen in 1976 and integrates beads with a variety of jewellery types such as necklaces, bracelets and bangles. They also work with earrings and rings made predominantly of metal. At the time of the first beads being created, it was popular to wear a bead on a piece of leather around your neck. Nowadays the Trollbeads company makes beads in all manner of shapes, colours and unique styles to accompany an array of jewellery. The first glass beads were created in 2001, and since then their collection has grown and grown. With more than 600 beads in collection now, Trollbeads has become popular in over 30 countries and has more than 90 international designers.
My final review for the products available from Trollbeads are;
Design of Products 5/5
Quality of Items 5/5
Variety Available 5/5
Value for Money 5/5
Appearance when Wearing 5/5
I am giving Trollbeads a full 5/5 due to the quality, variety and appearance of the items.
Trollbeads features so many beautiful pieces, I can recommend you taking a browse at their website which can be seen here http://www.trollbeads.com/en-gb/shop/

Not only are these tops good for summer but you could also layer them in the cooler months. I would utilise them by putting one underneath a pinafore or a variety of other dress styles.
Here is a photograph of me wearing a New Look ensemble including the white cardigan and the red striped tee shown in my image above. I have paired them with a pair of my New Look skinny jeans to keep the red/purple theme running through the outfit.
In this shot you can also see the sleeve length of the jersey striped top. I really like the style of this tee on my figure and was happy with my purchase.
As well as this jewellery I discovered I had been sent some items used in the process of skin stretching. Some female designed Oil, Butter and a Stretching Guide were included for me to review. It’s excellent that Piercing Mania do these sorts of packages for people to begin this process at home.
So let me show you the products in detail now using my macro photography. Then I will show you how I applied some of them to my own ears, and how they looked. I will also give my full review at the end of this post and include the links to items if you wish to purchase any of them for yourself.
Overall I am more than impressed with the service and the quality of the jewellery from Piercing Mania. I will be ordering from them again without a doubt.
Cats Makeup Pouch
Hello everyone, if you’re reading this then you’re here to find out what was inside the amazing Treatbox for August 2016! Yes it’s that time of the month again where the postman knocks on the door and hands me the post that I always look forward to getting. The box that always seems to help me start a new month off in the right way.
As some of you will know I love to photograph these fabulous boxes in great detail and outline every inch of its contents. This months wonderful theme is ‘Dream Big’ which has aspects of Magic, Dreams, Unicorns, Rainbows and Love (among other things). I was really happy with all of the items inside this months box, check out my photographs and descriptions below for this Treatbox for August.
My favourite items in this months box are the notebooks, the lights and the quote card ‘Follow your Dreams’. I love the notebooks because they are not only pretty but so useful to have around the house. Because I blog so much if I don’t have my phone to hand I often write myself notes, these are the perfect size for slipping into a handbag or travel bag too. I love the lights because for battery ones they are super bright, see my image below for just how amazing they look when placed into a dark corner. And finally I adore the inspirational quote card, I am a huge believer in seizing the day, and following your dreams, even if it takes you a while to achieve them, don’t give up and believe in yourself, this beautiful card is something to read and remind you of that.
If you would like to order a TreatBox for yourself or for a gift then you can find Treatbox by searching that keyword on Facebook and/or visit their website in order to get your very own TreatBox 
I hope you have enjoyed this reveal and my review of the August Treatbox, who knows, there may be more reveals of them in the future. If you do decide to subscribe then please leave me a comment, I would love to know what you think of your own TreatBox. Thanks for reading!
When it came to trying it on I first noticed how flattering the shape was, a sown waist line allows the skirt of the dress to fall in a flowing manner. The design sees thick shoulder straps and a high round neckline, which leads on to the cold shoulder sleeves. The skirt is knee length and the dress is of reasonably thick material. I found the piece to be soft and comfortable to wear because it is 96% cotton. The botanical print is highly detailed as you can see by my image below.
I recently purchased some BarryM Nail Paint, something I had never used before. If anyone entered my recent giveaway you’ll remember I gave one of them away, a lush pink colour. But another of the shades that I kept for myself was this incredibly bright turquoise colour. Like the shade that the sea is in faraway climates. I adore these sorts of colours; in fact the majority of my nail varnish collection is a mixture of blues, greens and reds.
No7 Mystery Prize Gift Bag
When I opened the tape on the beautiful purple bag and looked inside, I saw a selection of items inside including samples, No7 items and what looked like some full sized products too. I decided to photograph all of the items together before testing or using any of them, so the next image depicts a flat lay of the things inside the prize. This is the reveal of what was contained in this prize.
Item 1. Estee Lauder – New Dimension Serum Sample
I’m looking forward to trying these products and the samples, if I’m impressed with anything I will probably write a blog post about that specific item. Although most of what was included seem to have one time uses unfortunately.
I’ve been very lucky this month because I have another Treatbox reveal for you all! I am happy to share this months theme with you first of all which is a Tropical theme.
As I carefully opened up the tissue paper I noticed the smell getting stronger and I could see something made of material, what I guessed was the party bag with spots on and in the corner was something covered in pineapples!
Inside this months box you will find some wonderful items including the little party bag mentioned in the description in celebration of a year of TreatBoxes, which had bubbles, confetti and sweets inside it (cute!), a ‘Hooray’ flag (which is great for any celebrations), a badge that has melons on it, a lovely makeup bag which has the slogan ‘and so the Adventure begins darling’, a heart and arrows sign which reads ‘Go Your Own Way’, a bracelet from Wish Upon A String which is a Pineapple, an inspirational card that says ‘Oh The Places You’ll Go’, and a candle which is Pina Colada scented from Simple Candle Co. (it made the whole box smell lovely).
My favourite item in this months box has to be the quote bag. I really like the delicate font on the front. I’m a huge fan of storage items no matter what the material, and I’m positive that this little bag will go away with me on holidays and long weekends. It’s a versatile size and I love that it can fit a lot of different items in, because it isn’t designed to be makeup specific for example, but I would most likely use it for that, or perhaps weekend accessories such as jewellery and things of that nature.
I have thoroughly enjoyed all four of my TreatBox experiences. Although I haven’t loved every item in every box, the great thing about these wonderful items is that the gifts that you receive that are unwanted, can become gifts for others who will love them. I know I won’t be purchasing too many little presents on the run up to this years festivities because I am saving a few of my TreatBox items to give away.
I hope you have enjoyed this reveal and review of the July Treatbox, who knows, we may have more of them in the future. If you do decide to subscribe then please leave me a comment, I would love to know what you think of TreatBox.
