Gothic Fairy Costume | Halloween 2014


Hello lovelies!

A different post for you all tonight. This weekend at work we are having a Halloween themed weekend for charity as next week is a big sale so we couldn't do it then. Anyway I thought I would show you a little snippet of what I wore for the evening. I decided to go as a gothic fairy as this was what I had lying around in my box of fancy dress gear and was easy to put together in a small space of time. I enjoyed this look as, if you know me enough you'll notice I love wearing anything floral and lots of colours and this look is the total opposite to my style which was fun to play around with. Tonight there was only three of us who dressed up but apparently more are getting involved over the weekend after seeing the three of us all dressed up, so I'm looking forward to seeing what everyone else comes up with :) Also a few people actually thought this was my real hair at first and thought I'd suit black hair which was funny, I honestly wish my hair was this long in real life! It's like my dream hair length...maybe one day.


What I Wore  


My outfit consisted of my black mesh crop top by Missguided layered over a plain black Marks & Spencer vest and then my black velvet Topshop leggings. My wings, wand and crown I got from Ann Summers and my wig is from Dr Funkenstein costume shop.

Makeup



The key elements of my makeup was using my Urban Decay NAKED palette eyeshadow in 'Creep', then I used my Front Cover eyeshadow palette in 'Moonlight' under my eyes and Rimmel London Kate Moss lipstick in shade '04' which is a dark purple colour.


Thank you for reading! <3
Let me know if you are doing anything for Halloween and what you are dressing as :)
