Tis The Season To Party

 

I am now at home, on my comfy couch, with the tree up and the fire on. It feels so good! I got home early hours Friday morning, and then promptly got really ill over the weekend, so I haven't been able to do a thing. It's the worst time of year to get ill but is also inevitable unfortunately. And, I have loads of work to do, including an essay that's due tomorrow which I haven't started yet! :(

 

Nevertheless - hopefully, if I am better - this weekend is the start of party season for me aka a night out on the town, and drinks in the pub the next two days with friends. Yes, I am actually out on Christmas Eve this year (only for the afternoon though! - true stay at home girl). I am so excited! I can't wait to see all my friends, and have proper hangover food!

 

 

 

Getting dressed up, putting makeup and doing your hair is all part of the fun, especially when there are loads of beautiful clothes and shoes out there to buy! I'm going over to town tomorrow with my Mum for last minute Christmas shopping, and maybe a little something for me too! Like a new outfit...

 



Dead/Tortured Queen Of Hearts

Yesterday was the highly anticipated Halloween! I loved it! My friends and I had drinks at my flat before getting in a taxi down to the local Erasmus bar where the place was fully kitted out in cobwebs, pictures of wolves, black sheets, ghost and bat impressions, and the bar staff were fully made up in skeleton makeup Spanish style! Everyone goes to the next level over here which was fab!

 

I went as the dead/tortured Queen of Hearts. I got out my red dress that I wore for a Disney fancy dress night out first year and last Halloween. I was the 'normal' Queen of Hearts, and the Devil last year. A good buy from Putney TK Maxx! I definitely get good wear out of it each year.

 

 

I would say I looked pretty freaky last night with the weird clash of white and black makeup were it gets mixed into nothing on my nose so I look like I don't have one like MJ. Oh well, that is Halloween for you! I wanted to go all out this year and I did! I've already started thinking about next year when I'll be back in my beloved Roehampton, probably working one of the nights of Halloween festivities. There's an excuse to create at least two Halloween looks for next year!
