You have to be in a state of play to create and do amazing things! (as says Paula Scher…) – Usually I go all out for Halloween dress up but this year it was actually quite tame for me! There was no dress up at work this year like previous years, so I settled for a night out and a few photography pieces for my blog! (I thik its secretly kus they don’t like me winning every year! ;p)

I’ll let you into a secret… I weirdly have a latex allergy – It literally gives me third degree burns and blisters like CRAZY! (I almost got blood poisoning and sepsis the last time I got it bad!…) so unfortunately I cannot use the magical liquid latex to give me amazing scars! – I would like to keep my body parts!! Instead I use a special fx wax by Snazaroo! Without fail it works great year after year for £3.99 on ebay for a small round palette of it!

There is a fine art to creating scars! – let me tell ya you have to warm this wax up well in your hands because trying to smudge it into your skin hurts!! I pride myself on creating some realistic scars though!

I love Halloween, love dressing up! LOVE IT!

Let me know what you think!

This year I went on a night out (was supposed to be a classy, sensible ish night out – 4am I roll in!! *eyeroll) as a fallen angel. My best friend wanted in on the act and we dressed up identically. I already had the most perfect dress for the occasion that had been sitting away unused in my wardrobe, so my bestie went out and brought the same one and we pretty much rocked identical outfits! Emma is the tomboy out of us both – she rocks short hair and an undercut and is basically the opposite of me. Don’t get me wrong – I like alternative and arty looks; my music and art taste definitely do not match my exterior! – but I would never be anything other than pink and blonde so we decided to switch! I was going to rock short hair, an emo look and Emma was going to do girly and have long hair like me.

I LOVED my new look (complete with nose rings!) let me tell ya.. if I ever have to cut off my long blonde locks (at knifepoint mind!) I would deffo rock this look! Sometimes it’s good to dress up and be someone completely different! I loved my arty alter ego.

Let me know what you think to my looks! 🙂
