Hi guys,
I'm not normally one for posing content not created by me,
But simply be just sent me this to post and I thought It was a great read
and might help inspire you if you are going out this week!
Hope you enjoy :)
"You've been good all year and now it's time to let your wicked side out… and look devilishly good while you're at it!
You don't have to be scary this Halloween; the best outfit inspiration comes from some of the most stylish - and sexy - characters in history, so why not look even hotter than usual by taking inspiration from some of these bewitching characters?
Cruella de Vil
Greet the witching hour with a glint of pure glamour-loving evil in your eyes as Cruella de Vil. You'll need the biggest fur coat you can get your mitts on - faux fur, obviously - and a slinky figure-hugging black dress. Faux fur is in right now too, so it'll be a wardrobe investment not a one-night-wonder! She may be a tyrant but Ms de Vil knows how to get glam, so reach for the elbow-length gloves and statement rings to wear on top.
Let's face it; the most recognisable thing about this puppy-snatching meanie is her two-toned hair. You don't have to reach for the dye - are you mad?! - just get some spray-in colour or hotfoot it along to the wig shop. If you can't find the perfect monochrome tresses, why not cut a black and white wig in half then sew them together?
When it comes to makeup, thick dark brows with a suitably evil high arch are pretty much all you'll need, but feel free to slick on a coat of red lippie if you want to get people wondering why they never realised Cruella was sexy before!
Cat Woman
You don't have to be stick-thin to rock a skin-tight look; in fact, womanly curves just make this outfit a million times better! Black leggings and a matching polo neck jumper are perfect, then just pop on some cat ears or make your own with a headband and felt triangles. To work the mysterious look, create an eyemask from a piece of wide ribbon with large eyeholes.
For that feline allure, define your eyes with liquid eyeliner and wing it out at the edges - meow!
Bride of Frankenstein
Being the love-interest of a series of patched-together body parts may not be a particularly glamorous pastime, but the bride of Frankenstein had her charms. Work her hauntingly beautiful look with an ethereal white dress and bandages wrapped around your arms. Hair should be swept up with a hint of curl or crimp to reference that spark of life you've been ignited with - at last, frizz is acceptable!
Go as dark as you dare with your lipstick and eye makeup, and forgo the blusher or bronzer - there's only a mad scientist between you and the grave, remember!
Elvira
The Mistress of the Dark is possibly one of the sexiest characters you could channel this Halloween, and it couldn't be easier. Grab yourself a long black skirt - thigh-high split optional - and team with a low cut top to show off those curves. Make sure you go for a top with long sleeves so you can attach some pieces of torn black material to give the jagged look Elvira sports. Good news girls: semi-opaque tights are a key feature of this look, so up the wow-factor with some body-shaping beauties.
You'll need lashings of eye makeup for this one. Use liquid liner to create a winged shape in both the inner and outer corners of the eye. Use blue and purple eyeshadows on the upper eyelid and socket to create Elvira's multitonal style and get the wide-eyed look by using white eyeliner pencil on the inner corners of your eyes.
Use dark maroon-coloured blusher in a thick line underneath your cheekbones to define them in a way that'll slim your face right down but is only really acceptable for fancy dress - boo!
Next comes the final flourish - deep red lipstick for a darkly seductive pout.
The White Witch of Narnia
If all you blonde-haired beauties out there often feel a bit underrepresented in the pure evil stakes, the White Witch is here to, erm, save the day. To make her icy style your own just get your shimmering Christmas dress a little early! Team the cool-toned frock with a snowy white faux fur stole for queenly opulence then set to work twisting or plaiting your tresses to copy the White Witch's long dreadlocks without the long-term commitment.
Ok, so you might not be able to lay your hands on a crown made of icicles, and even if you could, who would want the associated brain freeze? So stick to a silver hair accessory and go as big and dramatic as you fancy.
Makeup should be used to create a pale, uniform look for the face. Use foundation and loose powder as a base, but go over the eyebrows and eyelids, too. Lips should be as pale as possible, so get hold of a peachy lippie. Now all that's left is to practice those bone-chilling gazes…we've got goosebumps already!"
Aren't those illustrations gorgeous!
Thanks again to simply be for providing me with such a brilliant post
Happy Halloween everyone!
Milly

Bad Blogger! and Instagram round-up :)
As if I haven't blogged for over a month!!
I apologise for being a bad blogger,
I just think I've lost my blogging mojo a little bit.
I'm working a lot at my new job, and I really love it there,
it just means I don't have much time to myself.
I'm feeling quite poorly and sorry for myself the past couple of days
so I thought I might as well do something productive!
I have however been using instagram quite a bit when out and about
So here are a few pics of my my face with various different make-up & hair over the last month.
Went for a lovely dinner for my besties birthday.
Had a holiday in Scotland for a family wedding,
this is my make-up for one of the meals we went out for.
Whilst in Scotland my aunt and cousin taught me how to knit
here is the start of the best scarf ever!
The day of the wedding.
My big hair the morning after the wedding!!
This is what I look like when I wake up in the morning.
Got my hair cut, with a lovely new V fringe
(that often looks wonky in pics but it isn't in real life!)
And wore a vintage headscarf, allsaints owain jacket and tatty devine white tiger necklace.
My hair and make-up one morning before my weekend job :)
That's all for now
I'll blog again soon... hopefully!!
xXx

New Year: Things I Love
Why hello there,
nice to see you again!
Please excuse my lack of bloggingness,
Christmas retail, means not a lot of free time!
So I thought I'd do a little catch up kind of 'Things I Love' post for you :)
I'm loving:
Orange Hair -
Dyed my hair a lovely shade of copper/orange
and I love it, just wish it was as gorgeous and thick as this girls!
Neutral Eye-Make-Up -
Working a lot means I am really appreciating a 15 minute make-up routine,
including a neutral eye, not as nice as this one though!
Magnetic & Glitter Nail Varnish -
I got loads of magnetic nail varnish for Christmas and I'm loving experimenting with it,
also cant get enough of my Deborah Lippmann glitter polishes!

Snuggly Pyjamas ftw :) Got some gorgeous M&S ones.
Christmas Socks -
Whether it's just around the house or peeking over the top of my boots
I'm living in patterned Christmas socks right now.
Biker Boots -
I'm Milly and I'm addicted to biker boots
real leather of course and the more studs the better
Clashing Prints -
there are so many different kinds of prints I love right now,
galaxy, fairisle, aztec, navajo, floral, digital, graphic etc
and there is nothing I love more than wearing them all at once!
Rucksacks/Backpacks -
I got the ahmahzing Lazy Oaf Space rucksack for Christmas
and it seems to just go with everything!
I also appreciate that it doesn't fall off your shoulders all the time.
Diet Coke -
I love it, nuff said!
Clinique Chubby Sticks -
Part of my afore mentioned quick make-up look are my clinique chubby sticks,
I have 4 and they add a great pop of hydrating colour

EEEPP I got this urban outfitters printed blanket duffle coat for Christmas
and I am never taking it off EVER
Snoods -
Chunky knitted snoods wrapped round tonnes of times
make me happy.
Skull Necklaces -
I was also lucky enough to get 2 different skull necklaces for Christmas
and I love wearing them with otherwise demure outfits ;)

New Pastel Lilac Hair
You may have seen on Twitter yesterday,

I'll have to keep topping it up regularly
Lipstick: Mac Morange
Eyeliner: Urban Decay 24/7 in Baked
Skin: Laura Geller, Balance 'n' Brighten in Fair
Balance 'n' Brighten is my HG face product btw,
it covers my rosacea in no time, and makes my skin look how I wish it did naturally!
