Halloween 2014

I was going for a skeleton makeup look but ran out of face paint after the first half so I had to improvise lol



'Lidl Wayne' haha!

 
 
I don't have many pictures to show for last night due to the tragic loss of my phone last week, but here are the ones I did find :)
Halloween is one of the best times of the year and I was worried that the excitement would wear away as I got older but i'm always pleasantly surprised at the atmosphere!
there was so much good costumes last night including Maleficent from sleeping beauty, Bananas in pyjamas, Orange is the New Black characters,  Bane from Batman, The game 'Twister', along with the usual dollop of Zombies, Cats, Army girls and Police men.
I hope everyone had a safe and spooky Halloween and I promise better quality pics when I invest in a new phone, since my blokia doesn't have that advantage :)

Halloween Spider Nails


 
These are my Halloween Spider nails that didn't turn out quite so perfect but look pretty funky from afar lol. Really quick and easy to do and cute with a black dress, smokey eyes and a little spider hair piece, for the person who doesn't want to dress up, but doesn't want to be boring either :)
 
First I painted all my nails in Gosh 'Holographic' nail polish that I used in my previous blog post. This colour is so flipping cool and the picture does not do it justice!
 
 
 
I dipped the point of a pen in black nail polish and drew small curvy lines diagonally on my thumb and ring finger. I would suggest using a skewer or tooth pick but I didn't have any. You can also leave it here is you aren't going for a Halloween look as I think this looks pretty cool as it is!
 
 
 
 
I then drew as-thin-as-possible black lines through the curvy lines to make the web-ish look! I messed up and had to re-do this twice so don't worry if you do that's what nail polish remover and patience is for :)
 
 
 
I decided to take it a step further and add an itsy bitsy spider on my index finger, which didn't turn out the healthiest looking of spiders, but oh well! For this I painted a small blob and dragged out 6 small legs with the same pen.
 
 
Finish with a clear top coat and there ya go! Hope you enjoy and Happy Halloweeeeeen 💀

Halloween is approaching!

Hellooooo!
 
 
So, since Halloween (one of my FAVOURITE times of the year) is fast approaching, I think it's time... to decide on a costume. This is one of the best and most exciting things to do for me because there is so much fun and creative Halloween costume idea's to choose from! I think that it is even funner to dress up in a group because 1) there is so much funny tv show/movie ideas to re-create and 2) if the costume fails you wont be the only one laughed at! :D
 
 
Here are some fun and festive Halloween costume idea's to get ya started:
 
  • The cast of 'Recess', with a group of friends.
  • Telletubbies, if you have a little extra cash as it is hard to make yourself.
  • Adam and Eve, if you're feeling scandalous and don't mind walking around in only leaves.
  • Thing 1 and Thing 2 from the 'Cat in the Hat'
  • The Mario Kart gang would be so good!
  • Minions from Despicable me
  • Edward scissor hands
  • An X-Ray machine (draw an X-Ray on a cardboard poster and carry it in front of you)
  • Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles!
  • And my personal favourite that I've tried and failed multiple times to pull of... The cast of Toy Story! ( of course I would be Buzz as he is my king)
 
I can't wait to start plotting and planning for a craycray costume this year :) Here are a few things I've dressed up as over the years!
Hope your costumes go well, happy haunting and I'll speak to y'all soon! see yaaa <3
