Hallowen beauty buys

Hollowen is when witches, cats (or whatever you chose to go as this winter) come out this 31st october . Most of you will not be uncountable for your actions and some may not remember the night before (ha).


(Lipstisk shades Barry m and lasting fix - shades 160 and 17) in purple and dark rose
                                                         Gothic vampire
The most important thing to remember when transforming yourself into a vampire goth, is that dark shades are what you need!. If your skin is translucent like Edward Cullen in the last insolement of breaking dawn, then it is easier for you to apply purple to black colour lipstick , as a way to emphasis how very pale you are. For girls of ethnicity (tan to dark skin tones) then apply talcum powder lightly around you face, but before lightly smooth moisturiser around your skin ( this would help the powder to stay on your skin longer, and absorb access oil). 

This look is all about the edginess of your eyes, Kohl pencil,and liquid eyeliner are needed in this process ( though I cannot demonstrate this on the blog, YouTube tutorials are located all through the big wide net). The more thickly applied gives you a slightly weary glance ,more or less like Taylor Momsen. Liquid eyeliner pens are espically useful.




Dark acessorize :this is central on hollowen, in creating a tough biker look, I brought a choker and headband ( black choker DIY,metal headband primark £1.50). To add a certain flare to the look
Happy Halloween.

Books to read *My recommendations *

This subject is completely off topic and unrelated to fashion, however these books I just had to inform you about. I am a readaholic when I have the time, the great thing about novels especially are the chapters that hold your attention and how accessible they are becoming to a unengaged society.

The Perks of Being a Wallflower
*Plot Summary *
The book begins with 15 year old boy named Charlie writing letters to an unknown recipient about his life. He discusses how he is beginning high school and his fear of it because his only friend, Michael, committed suicide the year before.
Charlie is a wallflower and he is befriended by a senior named Patrick.  He is absorbed into their group of friends and can begin to control flashbacks he has had about his aunt Helen dying on his Birthday  The book follows Charlie on his recent journey.

This is a coming of age written by American  novelist Stephen Chbosky it is now a motion picture starring : Logan Lerman, Emma Watson and Ezra Miller.



The Fault in our Stars
*Plot Summary*
The story is narrated by a sixteen-year-old cancer patient named Hazel, who is forced by her parents to attend a support group ,where she subsequently meets and falls in love with the seventeen-year-old Augustus Waters, an ex-basketball player and amputee.Hazel was diagnosed with Stage 4 Thyroid cancer with metastasis forming in her lungs when she was 13, but has managed to live with her disease thanks to doses of an experimental drug called Phalanxifor. Hazel finished high school early, and has already begun to pursue a college education. Isaac, a friend, also attends the support group. Isaac lost his eye to cancer at a young age and has just learned that he must have the other removed, which will result in permanent loss of vision. Isaac is close friends with Augustus "Gus" Waters, a former basketball player who lost his right leg to osteosarcoma, and is in remission. The book continues to write about Hazel and Augustus close bound with each other it is a very poetic novel  ...

Upcoming motion picture due for release.


It
*Plot Summary*
The book written by Alexa Chung documents her rise to the influential celebrity she is today, and there is a feeling throughout the book that she is apologizing for her successes as if she does not believe she has quite made it. The "it" girl is what many aspiring stylist's want to be; in this book it shadows her rise to fame.

winters coming - a lookbook guide for you

The foreboding winter is here  (upsetting yes) but there is nothing we can do about that unfortunately apart from layering up. The transaction from fall to winter is done by wearing thick socks and jumpers and high waisted jeans.

Look #1 
classy brown print 
Look #2 
 Casual Monday 
Look #3 Slight grunge chick


Look # 1
This style is centered  on a more earthy, sophisticated day were the sky seems darkly foggy and  your main goal is to cover up your entire exposed skin. The cream jumper is from Topshop priced £12 pound's and the black tightly fitted jeans are from ASOS priced  at £23 pounds'. Telling from the illustration the jumper is more or less cropped so it is in a slender way "teasing"
Moving down those tan suede high soled boots are from Office priced £45 pounds and the murky over-sized boyfriend coat (similar to mine - October haul needed) is at Topshop priced £120 pounds'

Look #2
Casual Monday is a more sloppy/slacky alternative style. This  is for certain days when you cannot comprehend wearing something over-ally accessorized for school or college . The shapeless "mom jeans" are from Topshop for £25pounds' whilst the fluffy thick jumper is from h&m priced at £ 15 pound's. Following the look are classic Coltrane dupes from new look a hefty over - budget between £20  £40pounds'. Not emphasizing to much on the prices though as the outfit is a simple jumper against denim- washed jeans.

Look #3 
The last look is for a night when you are with your mates and want to transform a deary outfit to something chic\fashionable. American apparel disco pants was the thing of the past, that reach a price of £70pounds. White collar button ups can fix a complex jumper, giving it a modern vibe. The black thick legged Aldo boots are priced at£90.

Peace xoxo

Decisions, Decisions, Decisions

ello readers, if your new to my blogs I hope that you find them interesting enough to read on ; today's topic for discussion is  high street wholesales vs Expensive designer. If you are like me and constantly on the look -out for various cheap deals ( either on sale or relatively cheap), then you may no that you can recreate designer outfits following a simple elimination process. As a business student I mainly compare brand to brand and focus on what makes them unique.

It is human nature to expire to want luxurious things, it is however partly down to the media evoking all these different desires in us. DO NOT, despair; here is advice for you.
 

Brown oversized coat - Max Mara £1,876 (expensive)
White oversized coat - Topshop £63 (relatively expensive)
Grey oversized coat - New look £36 ( less expensive)






Coltrane vs cut out dupes

Boots are a seasonal trend this summer' the cut outs make a trendy alternative edge to the all conventional boot leg boots. Coltrane's are all so special; designed and manufactured by Jeffrey Campbell there price is most expensive. If you read my later blog I recently explained how a bidded on eBay for these precious jems (exclusive price of £70pounds). Dupes are circuiting all over scene : pictured above are Topshop river island and new look all reaching between £45 - £50pounds .
