So...too early to be thinking of halloween?

So....too early? Noooooo don't say that ;)
It's never too early to be thinking of your costume!!

And I've learnt my lesson from last year - as you can see from these pictures - I was so busy with Uni work and my weekend job I didn't have time to come up with an amazing outfit. Now anyone whose ever looked at my photos closely might notice I have a little fang ;) so I thought ahha! Vampire! Perfect quick solution.
So last Halloween I raced home from work, slipped on my tightest black skirt, skin tight black meshtop and backcombed my hair into oblivion! :) My sister looked amazing - her outfit was a murdered Miss World, wonderfully grim and gory with a knife sticking out of the middle of her chest.
Me, Aimee and my Mum stood outside our kitchen door in the back garden justthrowing fake blood on her! Such fun :P

Aimee was a kind of Sailor/Zombie/Lady GaGa...I think it worked! I did her make up ;) (p.s how weird and scary does my eyelook here!!??? Suppose it was Halloween though :p)

The entire night there were hardly any smiles for the cameras - it was gory grins, snarls, and screams! :D
Wealso swapped parts of our outfits!
One too many lemonades for Olivia here ;) How confused do I look?:P

Rawghhhhhhh!!!!!!
:D
Sooo this year I need a bit of planning. I have always, and probably always will, love mermaids. I adore them. Little Mermaid was (and still is ) my favourite film and I always thought they were far more magical and interesting then just some plain boring princess or fairy ;)

SoI've been thinking...why not go as a mermaid this year?

Not as saucy as this one obviously ;) I would have to cover up a bit!
I like this type of mermaid...not as clean cut and a bit wild...



wonderful Pre raphaelite painting of some cheeky sirens

Heres a mermaid from the wonderful Mermaid Parade held on Coney Island New York every summer...if you've never heard of it, google it! Its amazing I hope I can go one day!
How ace does she look!? Don't think I could do the full body paint though...maybe just some shimmer on my collar bones and shoulders?
I know she's not a mermaid haha, but I love this style make up for a mermaid, but maybe replace the purple for a greeny,blue? or maybe a coppery bronze to make my eyes look blue-er? What do you think?
My favourite painting probably ever, I've loved it since I was a child. Were lucky enough to actually house it in our local Art Gallery, and its stunning.


These girls are paid to be mermaids in aquariums ! Can you imagine that, going to your local aquarium, cheking out the fish, and a mermaid floats by....

How cool! :D

How beautiful does she look? :)
Retro Mermaid! :)

This womans called Hanna, and she's a mermaid in the Mermaid Lagoon in Sydney aquarium, she looks really realistic doesnt she? :)



Mermaid hair :) thinking I should do my hair all wiggly and curly and string glittery thread and pearls through it :)

:)



Hhahahaha thought I'd finish with this funny picture ;) Although he does look a little odd, I love the stars in his hair and am thinking of stealing this idea!

So am I the only one who loves and adores Halloween? :) What is everyone else thinking of going as this year? Or what did you go like last year?
Hope everyones ok, and thanks for all the tumblr advice on my last post!

Lets Go To The Seaside


So I was working all day Saturday unfortunately, so I didnt have a chance to bask in the sunshine, but I was off all Sunday so Alex and I set off for Scarbourough :)

However we headed up to Bridlington, where it was bright sunshine, and the second we head past Brid, its all black clouds and rain! Yes, RAIN. We couldnt believe it, he was in shorts and t-shirt and I was in a tiny summer dress! Luckily we only got caught in a few big splotchy rain drops before the sun broke through again :)

All this pictures are back to front, with this gorgeous moon picture at the start, it was actually taken on the way home! So these pictures are our day at the seaside - only backwards :)








Sand Art :)








Feet! :)









Alex et Moi :) Havent got a clue what that redline is across us, it wasnt like that on my computer or camera! :s

This was the quiet beach, the one I much prefer :)







I loved this rock, it stood out so much from the sea, I could imagine a mermaid sitting on top of it combing her hair :) instead this seagull seemed pretty happy perched there looking around at everything.

Fun Fair!




All the sea weed floating about in the harbour.





Alex buying a crab (bleurgh) and my odd shadow!





I loved this little bike, its so cute! It was parked outside of a craft fair, and the basket on the front was filled with wooden, paper and real flowers! I also quite like the steps its parked near.
