Wonderful World Look Book

I made a visit to Wonderful World stores yesterday to check out the stock for their "Create Your Look Carnival 2K11" campaign. It is the first time in my recollection that Wonderful World has gone all out in promoting their range of accessories, makeup, nails and other Carnival related products. Complete with a Look Book that shows you makeup and accessory styling  for various sections in Harts, Island People, Spice, Bliss and TRIBE there are billboards all over Trinidad advertising Wonderful World and their Carnival collection.

The Look Book is really neat in that if you need makeup inspiration the looks created by Nina Alcantara  to match the various costumes are gorgeous, plus the Look Book (priced at $10.00TT) also has a rewards card inside which gets you a discount on purchases ; my rewards card scored me a $30.00TT discount, but please note the amount does vary . I only picked up metallic nails  ($35.00TT) and hair diamonds ($50.00TT) but I am definitely going back to Wonderful World for more stuff, it is like a magnet pulling you in every time I am at the mall!

So, if you were wondering what the whole Look Book thing was about now you know! 

Wonderful World Carnival Collection

Every year Wonderful World rolls out LOTS of accessories such as  body jewelry, glitter spray, makeup, hats,bags, sunglasses, nails and even tights for Carnival; lots of stuff to choose from. This year they  are all over billboards and Facebook with their new Carnival Ad Campaign and I am loving the looks! You can check them out on Facebook or on their website. Makeup by Nina Alcantara.

Wonderful World Opening on Sunday

This is for those of you who still need to get stick on nails, lashes, body jewelry, hats, hair spray, glitter and other Carnival accessories.

Wonderful World will be opening on Sunday at the following branches: Trincity Mall, West Mall, Gulf City and Starlite Shopping Plaza.

Wonderful World for Carnival Accessories

Yesterday I went to Trincity Mall and a few stores are already getting into the Carnival spirit with costumes in their display widows or decorating inside the store. Walking into Wonderful World Accessories was like walking into a Carnival Mecca!

If you need to plan your Monday wear they have a variety of hats, including Silver and Gold Cowboy Hats, as well as belts and hot shorts. They also have on sale the silicone gel inserts, stick on bras and invisible straps for those strapless costume bra tops that may need some additional support.

But, the bounty of Carnival “stuff” is makeup related! They have every imaginable colour of glitter mascara, glitter eye shadow, glitter body sprays, glitter dust, coloured hairsprays as well as regular eye shadow, lipstick and a variety of false eye lashes! From wild and crazy foil lashes to feathered lashes, they have many to choose from.

Finally, they have all types of body jewels and crystals. There are face crystals for eyelids, eyebrows, forehead and bindis. You will also find navel jewels, back jewels and even NIPPLE jewels! I also saw some fake tattoos as well as a variety of navel rings.

The only thing I did not see on display was mas tights, but possibility exists that they might even be selling those because I did not think to ask. On that note, I visited Micles to get a look at their mas tights and the cost is $40.00TT. They are low waist tights, matte, and come in four shades. I tried one of the samples on my hand and found it to be a match to my complexion; however I am not too sure that brand is what I bought last year. The package is labeled simply “Micles” so I am going to visit the Port of Spain Branch to see if they have a wider variety.

So if you are looking for Carnival Accessories to match your costume or to enhance your makeup you do not need to shop online, look no further than Wonderful World which has lots to choose from. What makes it great is that there are branches all over; you can find Wonderful World stores at Gulf City, Long Circular, Trincity and West Malls as well as downtown Port of Spain. The other store which also sells a host of Carnival items is Eye Candy in West Mall (next to the Hallmark store).
