Texture

Ok, so after all the festive fun, I'm feeling the urge to actually start doing something now (wow) especially after the countless Roses and Quality Street tins I've gone through...so I thought I'd start with a blog post and move on to school stuff a little later(hopefully)

So for this outfit I was really looking to create texture. The mohair jumpers are really popular these days and this one is surprisingly, not itchy and really soft  (WIN WIN!) The shoes were such a lovely little bargain piece , they were reduced to €20 from €30(I have no idea why) and are in mint condition! The picture doesn't really do them justice but they are pretty chunky. Everything is from New Look by the way!

So there you go, happy new year and bring on 2014!

It seems like any post I do, I complain of being broke! To be fair..it is the truth! Anyhow  here's the usual, I will have these one day but until then I'll continue to dream...or pray Fr. Crimbo  is reading this now....

Just a few bits and bobs I've picked up lately. Since it's starting to get pretty chilly i decided it would be a good idea to get some umber-comfy polo neck jumper, and what better place to pick up these fab basics than  Pennys! They have a tonne in at the moment, along with a 'gizillion' different colours! They're actually pretty good material especially considering the price.( €6 each.. bargain!) 

The boots, I featured in my previous post, they're so chunky and add an edge to any outfit. The dress is also another gem from Penny's. It was in the sale reduced to €7, and with the cute daisy print i couldn't resist! Can't wait to style these!

Thanks for stopping by!

So if your not in the Halloween mood yet (what the hell is wrong with you?!) then maybe you can get some last minute inspiration here! Halloween is definintely one of my favorite times of year.Who doesn't want to dress up as some weird zombified creature and get sweets for it?! 

Anyway my outfit/costume thing..didn't take very long at all contrary to what i thought. It was my first time doing a proper Halloween makeup look, as i was going to a Halloween party and wanted to make the effort.
All you really need for the makeup is tissue, adhesive(you can use eyelash glue or even non-toxic glue),Berry lipstick,red/purple toned eyeshadows and fake blood. The key to this look is definitely blending.Once you put any eyeshadow on, you should blend it completely so that it really gives the zombified and realistic look.
Just be carefull as to what glue you use, if you use non-toxic glue it's probably best not to wear makeup on underneath it because it won't stick for very long. As for clothes, i went for a kind of creepy doll look but again my main focus was on the makeup.

(Also, has anyone else checked out the google home page, if you haven't do it now!)

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
