Spook Boutique



This halloween I went to a haunted lodge party hosted by Shapes and Native Tongue, where the location was kept at a secret until the night and we had to do a haunted ghost walk through a graveyard to get there. There was a strict fancy dress code so we decided to go as creepy dolls. We followed this great make up tutorial to get the doll type face and after a practice it ended up pretty easy to do. Although trying to cover up eyebrows is a nightmare, we used so much pritt stick and our heads felt tight and crispy for the whole night! In terms of the outfit we just picked up some socks and leotards from Primark and the tutu's came from this eBay seller, we added some ribbon and it turned out to be a fairly cheap halloween outfit. What did you do for halloween this year? 

Don't forget to enter my REDROCK competition here.

Halloween #3

I went a bit Halloween crazy this year and I absolutely loved it, everyone I went out with looked so cool and creepy. I saw a girl do sugar skull make-up last year and literally thought it was the best idea ever, so this year I didn't even have to think about what to be!

Dixi's 'funny bones' tights were perfect for this outfit, I bought them in a flash sale which meant they only cost me £6!! and I got free shipping! If you follow Dixi on Facebook they always run mini competitions to get free shipping or 10% off- soo good. They have such nice items on sale, my favourites at the moment are the Adele Dress and this 'Deer Me' Antique Ring.

Here's some pictures from the night, hope you all had (or are having if you're out tonight) a great Halloween.

Halloween #2

Last night was the inter-intern night out for everyone on placement in the Reading area and it was soo much fun. Not entirely sure what me & Melissa were meant to be, it varied from 'spider queens' to 'black widows' aha. The boys I live with dressed up as mimes which isn't really Halloween'y but they looked cool- best dressed was definitely a guy dressed as Edward Scissorhands, such a good idea.

The night started out with one too many strongbows and a party in our taxi ride to town singing along to 'barbie girl' and 'Saturday Night'. It ended up with me walking home barefoot in the rain- all in all a pretty good night seeing as I don't really rate Reading night life. On this note in Revolution last night saw 'Skint Mondays' advertised which had Crystal Castles play recently (for only £3.50) and I'm gutted I missed them, they've got a pretty cool line-up leading towards Christmas, might have to check it out. They were my highlight of Glastonbury this year!

Halloween #1

So tonight me and my house mate Melissa have been getting all creative for Halloween; we've got an inter-intern social tomorrow night in Reading to prepare for and Saturday we're of to The Blast vs Digital Soundboy to see Breakage and Jess Mills. I have so much love for Jess Mills-
check out her song 'Live for what I'd die for', it's amazing. 

Thought I'd post a picture of the mess that will make up two sets of Halloween outfits, aha exciting-
