Halloween makeup- pop art

Hey guys!! I hope you enjoyed yesterdays skull post, this is another idea for Halloween but less scary and very easy!

So step 1, put on your normal makeup- foundation, bronzer, blusher, mascara then use a brightly coloured eyeshadow- I used green and yellow as it stands out, then put your eyeliner on.

The next step is to colour in your eyebrows- the darker the better and make them bigger than you normally do, then choose a bright lipstick, the one I'm using is 'girl about town' by mac and this will be the base colour for your next step.

Step 3- use eyeliner and make little lines on your face, like I have. This will create more shape and structure to your face. Then using eyeliner again, draw around your lips, flicking it out at both ends, using black eye shadow, shade in the corners of your lips making them look bigger and bolder, then using white face paint add little bits to the centre of each lip to make it look like light is hitting them, making them look even bigger and in your face! (close up below)

                                                                                                                                                                                                     

Step 4- using the white face paint, add white dots all over your face finishing this pop art look off, I used the end of a brush to create these as it was the perfect size for the dots.

The final step is to draw a tear shape under which ever eye you want, use eyeliner to do this, and colour in the shape you have made in blue eye shadow.

DAH DARRH! Finished!

I hope you have enjoyed this tutorial, see you again tomorrow with my third halloween makeup idea and check out my instagram for more photos and videos on these!

Enjoy!

My 21st

 

Hey Guys, how is everyone?

So I have been so busy over the past few months planning my 21st birthday party which was James Bond themed! In case you hadn't noticed, I wore a very bold red dress!!

So I had been looking for a dress for a while and I knew I wanted a red dress, so after hours of looking around in shops and online I found the perfect online shop where I got this made, which I highly recommend using if you want any style/ colour dress, they have pretty much every style and can make them in any colour and it will be made especially for you, this is the website- http://www.dylanqueen.co.uk .

 

So the dress I chose was called 'A-Line/Princess High Neck Long Sleeves Applique Floor-length Chiffon Dress' I chose to have it made in 'Red' (obviously) but I didn't really know how it would look because the picture on the site was in silver! This dress is an Ellie Saab dress, but rather than it being in the original silver/grey colour it is red. I love this dress so much, I love how it sparkles in the light, I love the neckline and of course the fact that it is backless. As I have big boobs (its a nightmare) I didn't really know how to go about wearing a bra with this, so in the end I just didn't wear one as the back is so cut out that what ever is worn will be seen which I really didn't want, but it all worked out in the end!!

 

This dress has a small zip below the end of the back so it is easy to put on/ off it also has a little fabric belt like Chiffon ribbon around the waist to add a little shape between the top and lower parts of the dress. With this dress I wore the shoes that I have photos of in my 'DIY Louboutin's' post which looked fab with my dress, but I took them off after about an hour because they killed my feet!

 

If anyone was wondering, the dark red/ purple lipstick I am wearing is 'DIVA' by M.A.C which I only applied once over the whole night as it didn't come off once!!

 

If you have any questions about anything in this post, please leave a comment or email me and I will get back to you asap! As you can see, there are photos of Bella up here too so I have got her to write a little bit about her outfit below, but for now I hope you have enjoyed this post and I will see you next time!!

Hey! Its Bella here, so as Em said, it was her 21st birthday at the weekend and she had a James Bond themed party which was fab and she looked amazing!

 

So the outfit I wore was a monochrome jumpsuit from Quiz that has a very pretty diamante waistband which is so sparkley!! I love the halter neck neck on this jumpsuit and it fits the theme so well as I was going for a 70's Bond vibe.

 

The shoes I wore are from New Look which were really comfy and looked so good with my outfit!!

As Em said, if you have any questions please just leave a comment or email! 

See you next time!

Outfit 5.

 Hey guys! I hope you have all had a glorious summer!

I am back from my holiday! I went to Turkey for the first time (with my family)!

We went to Fethiye, Calis Beach which was so beautiful and definitely one of my favourite places to go! While we were out there I took photos of most of my outfits so I could show you guys what I wore on trips out or for the evenings, the outfits here are the my top 5 favourites, as I went for two and a half weeks, that is an awful lot of outfits to blog about so I have chosen my top 5! Bella will be doing a post on some of her favourite outfits in the next couple of days too!

 

Outfit 1- This is the outfit that I wore on the plane to Turkey, as I have said before I am a big fan of wide leg trousers and these are the perfect things to wear on a plane as they are so comfy and are basically like wearing pyjamas, these ones are from Tesco! I wore them with a white Miss Selfridge bell sleeve off the shoulder crop top and black Birkenstock sandals.

 

Outfit 2- My second outfit is what I wore on the first night of being in the glorious Turkish heat, wearing again a wide leg garment this time being my monochrome palm tree culottes from Primark combined with my Primark ribbed off the shoulder crop top and Birkenstock sandals, I also used my cute tassel clutch that I bought in H&M.

 

Outfit 3- So my third outfit is what I wore to the massive Fethiye market- this day was boiling, I mean I can handle the heat- I love the sun and the hotter the better but on this particular day it must have been about 40 degrees, it was so damn hot I couldn't even be bothered to shop!!! But I'm glad I wore this orange halter neck crop top from ASOS with my trusty monochrome pompom Primark shorts, again with my Birkenstock sandals and a black bumbag from Tiger.

 

Outfit 4- so my second outfit I have blogged about before, but it has made my top 5 holiday outfits because I love these Missguided shorts so much! I wore them with a Missguided black off the shoulder crop top and again.. my Birkenstocks with my tassel H&M clutch bag. I also wore a little sun necklace that I bought in the mountains whilst on an excursion trip! (helping out the local trade and all)!!

 

Outfit 5- My fifth and favourite outfit of the holiday is what I wore for my brothers birthday meal. This gorgeous faux suede off the shoulder tassel playsuit is from Missguided (of course), it is so comfy and soooooo soft I couldn't help but stroke it all night! I also wore it with my Birkenstocks as they were the comfiest shoes that I took on holiday as we had quite a walk down to the promenade to the restaurants and shops.

 

I don't know if you guys have noticed but I love off- the - shoulder garments.. I have only just realised how much I wear them! (Incase any of you were wondering, the bikini I'm wearing in the second photo down is from River Island, but I bought it last year so I don't think it will be around anymore!)

 

I hope you have liked this post on my favourite holiday outfits, Bella will be doing one on her faves too as I have previously said!!!
