My Halloween makeup idea number one. Zombie/witch /green creature.

Halloween is literally three days away and I am so so excited, I think I may love Halloween more than Christmas. Anyway if your like me and not very organised and you're currently scanning the interweb looking for last minute ideas which to be honest aren't very expensive and where you can use things you have in your makeup bag so that you don't have to drag yourself to the party shop, which to be fair are mahemic at the moment. Then I think I may be able to help you out . (Apologies in advance for really bad photos as I didn't take alot) This is not really a tutorial but if you want to see how I did it I might make a YouTube tutorial if ye would like (comment below if it is something ye'd be interested in.)


So this was an attempt at a you tubers (ill edit her name in later ) zombie makeup tutorial and I failed at it but I don't think I completely failed as I feel if I added a witch nose and a pointed hat I could be yer one from wicked (I think the wicked witch of the east I'm not positive). If you were doing it, I think you should consider latex wounds like the one I did here: 


I did do contouring for the first time ever and not too shabby if you ask me.
Creepy stare whoooooooo the eyeshadow is basically my eye colour 
What I used :Green eyeshadow (light green and an isadora khaki from one of their quads)
                     Black eyeshadow (hammer and ruby I think that's what they are called)
                     Maybeline liquid eyeliner
                     Red liquid lipstick (not the best description but I'll write a post about it later)
                     Brushes and that's it .
I would recommend continuing it down your neck as it looks kinda odd if you don't. (But of course ye know that already ) 
I will probably do two more of these if I come up with anything else.
Ps:I'd recommend face paint as using eyeshadow takes about two and a half hours.

Annoying things I do/ my faults.

I know every single person out there has at least one fault (Atleast I hope so ) personally I've got a good few. I actually enjoy reading these sort of posts as let's be honest you either get a really small ego boost or you get that sense of association/ feels (can't believe I just wrote that ). Anyway I'm going to get started before I go off topic.

1: Cracking my knuckles: I'm preety sure a good few people now hate me because of this
2: Speaking: I have a high pitched voice, not chipmunk-like but fairly close. My friends don't mind but there are a few people that make a point of telling me every time we talk.
3: Tapping: I tap my hands or fingers off tables 
4: Clicking pens
5: Over-packing: I'm a 10 outfits for two days kind of girl.
6: Hiding food: I've no clue why I do this but when I have pre-packed food like chewits or peanuts even bottled drinks, I hide them around the house. Never fresh food of course and I always eat it the day after. But still I've put it in the book case, in the press even in vases. 
7: I'm loud: Actually that's not true, if you don't know me you'll probably think I'm shy and slightly awkward but the people who do know me know that I am really loud and extremely awkward.
8: I ignore people I don't know: I honestly don't do this intentionally, but If I have to be paired with randomers or I'm with a group of friends and some people I don't know come over I won't talk to them or make eye contact with them. You can probably imagine how 'easy' it is for me to make new friends. But I am starting to grow out of this one.

I think that's about it. It's probably not but ahhhwell.

Edit : I'm extremely clumsy so I break things a lot including a glass snow globe which costed 30 quid.

A little explanation...

My blog has been "dead" for about two weeks now and all I can say is between another family problem and finishing my childcare project for my big exam, I've had literally zero free time to do anything. Still no excuses I've got a very big game of catch up on my hands but bear with me. I've got a few post ideas and they will be up A.S.A.H.P. 

Anywho good-night/morning/evening

2-Modern shirt dresses 
3-Metalics

Stella McCartney 





Alexander McQueen 
Andrew Gn
I feel like I've been living under a rock because I've only heard of Andrew Gn quite recently. I really love his designs. 
Especially the dress below..


Rochas

Dries Van Noten
Felipe oliveira
Oliveira's collection consisted of clothing in all hues of blue.
Alexis mabille
Mabille took a western approach to her collection and I must say I do love the combo of the glamourous dress with the western belt and boots.
Anthony Vaccarello
Damir doma
Doma is one of many designers who mixed fabrics but I think her pairing of the soft fabrics with the tweed is fabulous really. 
Ellie Saab 
Valentino
Two of the main things seen on the catwalk were parallel lines and male tailoring.
