Autumn Fashion Preview at House of Fraser
It is been an exciting time for House of Fraser this September, especially when it comes to fashion.

The Bobbi Brown concession based in House of Fraser, Birmingham, was launching a very special new product with a series of make-overs and demonstrations that promised to show the best way to achieve the glamorous smoky eyed look that is always super glamorous for evening. The long-wear Gel sparkle offers all the colour of an eye shadow, but can also be applied as a liner with a brush for a super pretty sparkly eye. The colour can be built up layer upon layer,…
