If you're like us, over the weekend you may have found yourself on the sofa in front of the car-crash television that is Eurovision. If you did, you weren't alone – 120 million people across Europe tuned in to catch a glimpse of the outlandish outfits, the questionable dance routines and the scary make-up.
Talking of outlandish outfits, we couldn't help noticing that there were a couple of performers who might have found themselves very at home on the Sparklecandy website. Take Germany's Lena, for example, who won the competition with the song “Satellite”. She has a great rock-chick look that we'd love to emulate, and we've already got some pieces in mind!
We bet Lena would love some of the more edgy items from the Sparklecandy range. In particular, she might like these Disaya safety-pin earrings which come in silver or gold (£80). We reckon she'd also find this Butler & Wilson dimante skull necklace (£26) pretty hard to resist – it would go perfectly with her long dark hair and gothic-inspired tattoo.
For those of you who like your jewellery a bit more girly – you were probably more impressed by Belarus' glitter-studded entry. Incase you didn't see it - halfway through the ballad “Butterflies” the three female backing singers' dresses transformed into stunning butterfly outfits.
We think that these butterfly beauties might be tempted by just about anything in our Disney Couture and Girl Prop collections. We can't help thinking, though, that there would be something wonderful about them pinning one of these pins to their butterfly wings....
So what do you think about Eurovision? Do you love it? Hate it? Let us know! Also, don't forget to give us a shout if you noticed any other performers who might have appreciated a bit of Sparklecandy!
