"Eye of newt, and toe of frog...



















Halloween was amazing and I completely loved it! For once there was only maybe one, possibly two, who were not dressed up which is pretty epic! Even though 98% of girls were nurses covered in blood and nearly all boys were just in blood stained white shirts! ahah. Bless. My friends and I were dressed up and of course we went all out! We had Queen of Hearts, Alice in Wonderland, Death on Vacation (Oh yes, inventive) and of course me, I was a Lion Tamer/Ring Leader! I turned more into a ring leader as I didn't take my stuffed lion out as I knew I would either lose it or someone would steal it! I don't have many photos as I couldn't find my camera charger so that died :( I have a few though so enjoy!

 Lawson is a Ninja and Ben is a guy with a few bandages wrapped around. I think the idea was mummy but thats a kinda fail attempt :) lol.
Death on Vacation. Original like.
As I didn't have a lion with me I adapted and decided to include a chair within my costume. Needless to say I only adapted for one photo... My homemade jacket which startd out as a good idea and then took soooo long! Was so frustrating but it worked in the end, yeyy.
Ahhhh loved it :) Things came together as well! xx

A little guess work!


Here's a little hint of what I'm going to be for Halloween!
Did you get it? Okay one last chance!


So as you've probably guessed by now I am going to be a lion tamer! Oh yes! Mightily excited. I am in the process of cobbling together my outfit as we speak. I am completely confused with my days at the moment and today does not feel like Saturday at all! So yes I am living the dream and staying in on a Saturday with some sewing and movies :)! xx

Trick or Treat on this All Hallows Eve.

Halloween is a stressful time these days! Before it wasn't that big in the UK and it's only in recent years that it has become as big as it has. I think I just like the idea of being 21 and the allowed act of dressing up! This year however has brought more pain than joy!
(L-R Grotsbag and Black Cat Tees, French Connection. Thigh High Leather Boots, Stella McCartney. Be Afraid Crop Tee, Topshop. Halloween Fun Bags, John Lewis. 'Boo' Tea light holder, John Lewis. Orange Nail Polish, O.P.I)

Some months ago I bought some costume patterns to start on my costume but of course time escaped me and I've only just realised it is a mere 3 weeks away. So making my own costume may be a little far fetched! Every girl wants that equal mixture of sexy and spooky. They want to stand out but for the right reasons..not for boobs out and covered in fake blood. Which lets be honest is a trending theme it seems. Deary me! I think I'm gonna be something boring like a cat! ahah, oh wow. Eccentric I know! xx

UPDATE: I actually have some photos of old costumes, halloweens, birthdays&other times, that I think I may upload some! Some people may cringe when they see them. But no skeletons in my closet! Beeee Affraiiiddd, ooooo :) lol.
