Feel Unique are a company best known for their fabulous selection of beauty brands available online and shipped worldwide and I for one have use them a lot as they are one of my favourite online shopping destinations. They recently contacted me to share the news of a new and exciting accessory line that they have created so I for one was very excited to see and know more about it. Feel Unique have collaborated with the incredible ' Insta-famous' Fashion Illustrator, Meredith Wing (aka @moomooi ) best known for her floral art work, to turn everyday necessities into beauty accessories thus a partnership of beauty meets fashion. Beauty, fashion, art, flowers ... just a few things that we all love, have been brought to life through Meredith's sketches onto a phone case, make-up bag, soft kabuki brush and travel wallet.
Meredith Wing trained in fashion and architecture which then developed into 3D drawings that celebrated unusual materials. Her #SomeFlowerGirls illustrations rapidly gained a huge following on Instagram in 2014. She uses real flowers, fruits, veggies and many more quirky ingredients in all of her drawings so if you don't know of her then do check her out on IG as she is super talented!
This "Beauty in Bloom" inspired collection is a perfect harmony between #SomeFlowerGirls illustrations and the world of beauty. With these Feelunique accessories, I picture chic women the world over bringing a little whimsy into their daily routine!" - @moomooi, Meredith Wing.
I think we all know the power of Instagram today as I for one use it a lot (you may have noticed!) and it's very inspiring when great partnerships are formed and passions are shared. So let me show you more about this beautiful, creative collection ....
There are 5 pieces in the collection with something to suit everyone ...
A large reusable canvas tote bag with a one of a kind illustration. Great to use as a beach bag, for shopping, beauty storage etc and would make a great bridesmaid or bridal gift. I love the illustration on the front of the bag as it is very 'Sex and the City' so I am obsessed with it. I desperately want to be one of the girls (like we all have our Sex and the City Character) as how gorgeous do they look and I just want those dresses to come to life! Stunning and so girly but perfect whatever your age.
Meredith Wing's beautiful blossoms transform a phone case into a very beautiful piece of artwork. I mean, how pretty are these! Made from durable silicone, this case offers good protection against bumps and drops and covers the back and sides. It is super lightweight and I like that it is clear so your phone still shows through .. the rose gold would look stunning. Sadly I have the 6SPlus so my phone is too big - gutted. This is actually Meredith's favourite item from the collection because seeing as our phones today are so precious, it seemed like a sacred place for her #SomeFlowerGirl to take real estate! Also, how real do the flowers look in these drawings?! Insanely good.
A thick canvas, cotton lined makeup bag which is just the perfect size to fit all makeup essentials, palettes and accessories. This personally has to be my favourite piece from the whole collection as the illustration on the front is just so, so beautiful. Again, I want to be this girl in this stunning flower dress; reminds me again of a wedding dress scene from sex and the city (can you tell I am a fan!). I actually want to frame it! It's such a grown up cosmetic bag but still ideal for any girly girl of any age. The fact that it has a rose gold zip just tops this off for me as being a top purchase!
Could a makeup brush be any cuter? This super soft kabuki brush is made of real sheep hair with a wooden handle and rose gold metal ferrule. Kabuki brushes are perfect for bending your powders, blushers, bronzers, foundation etc and the quality of this brush is superb. I love the Parisian theme and again, rose gold always has me. If you are after a new blending brush then you won't find many as beautiful as this one.
5. Travel Pass & Mirror Wallet £9/€12 (made from pvc leatherette)
For some 'glam on the go' this travel wallet keeps your cards and face happy as not only is it a card holder but a mirror too! What a perfect idea for any beauty fan. This is super handy for those that commute or have a travel card because you wont find a holder any prettier than this one. I love this idea and would make a really cute gift.
So there you have the collection; Isn't it stunning?! I did think at first that maybe it would be a bit too young for my style but it really does fit with all ages as the designs are so feminine in a very grown up glam kind of way but still suitable for anyone that loves beauty and all things pretty and very affordable too!
I love the whole theme and idea behind the collaberation and highly recommend that you check it out as it is such a great gift idea and just something a little different to have in your own beauty collection. I love to look at illustrations on Instagram and now they have come to life on a beauty accessory, what could be more perfect.
Feel Unique, you did good.
