Outfit and makeup of the day

 Just a quick little post today as I'm off to the Christmas markets in a few minutes to meet my friend! This is what I'm wearing -

White jumper - Hollister, Jeans - Topshop, Scarf - Matalan, Nail polish - Barry M Lychee, Necklace - forever 21, Daisy bracelet - local boutique.

I'm also going to wear my new faux fur coat from new look, is huge and fluffy and so cosy, perfect for the Christmas markets!

What are you doing to feel festive?

Happy (sorry it's late) Halloween

   

Hello everyone, I hope you all had a great Halloween! I thought I would do a little post to show you all what I did, so here you go. My best friend Lily came round and of course we had to dress up and do our makeup! I decided against doing my half skeleton makeup that I showed you in a previous post and just did dark eyes, white skin and red lips. I attempted to do some fake blood drips from my lips, why did nobody tell me you can't put nail polish on your skin :| woops! I can safely say that I would not advise any of you do this as it really burned and I had to wipe it off pretty quickly. So in the end I used lipstick and then put lipgloss over it to make it look shiny, however this was very sticky so I wiped it off and settled for having on blood drips! 

I had carved my pumpkin into a VW capmervan (do you sense a slight obsession?) and it took me forever but I was pretty impressed I managed it! I carved my other pumpkin into jack form the nightmare before Christmas but it seems everybody and their mother did that this year! My brother also did 2 pumpkins that were your typical pumpkin face made from triangles. We also made Halloween chocolates and jelly that we later mashed up and put sweets it which we had to fish out with our mouths lol. We made Halloween skeleton cookies too, however the decorating them part didn't go so well (picture both me and Lily using syringes to try and decorate them) and you can see how they turned out from the photo (the song 'fix you - Coldplay' comes to mind, when you try your best but you don't succeed...' One of the gingerbread men also lost his legs in an unfortunate accident that involved me dropping him on the floor... but fear not I scraped him up and glued him back together with icing!

P.s - we may have got a little ginger kitten the other day (appropriately named Pumpkin) and also a little (well actually it's quite big) bunny rabbit! So expect a post on them soon!

P.P.s - My eyes aren't really brown (obviously) and Lily's aren't blue, but neither of us were allowed contacts :'( So we went for editing them in photoshop instead!

My Halloween makeup

This is just a quick little post to day to show you all what I am planning to do my face like for Halloween (I was going to say makeup but it's not really makeup is it?) To do this half skull look I used white face paint to paint half of my face (sorry you can't really tell because of the effect on the photo, plus it was only taken on my iPhone), I then used a mixture of blakc paint and black eyeshadow to make a ring around the eye and fill it in, then I used eyeliner to fill in my waterline. I drew the teeth on and filled in the gaps between them again using black paint,and lastly I used black eyeshadow to make my cheekbones look hollow! Sorry this is very brief but I didn't know how this was going to turn out so I didn't take proper photos, but now I wish I had! If you follow my on instagram you will have already seen this, and I am only 5 followers away from 100, so please take a look, my name is rosee_petals.

Tag, 8 Fall (Autumn) loves

Hello Everyone, today I am doing a tag! I was tagged by the lovely Khadija to do the '8 Fall loves Tag'

 

1) Favourite nail polish:

My favourite nail polish for Autumn is probably, 'My Private Jet' by OPI! It's such a pretty browny/gold shade that's all sparkly :D

 

2) Favourite Eyeshadow:

I don't really have a favourite eyesahdow as I never wear it because it doesn't really suit me! But if I were to pick a colour I would probably go for a browny, gold orangey shade.

3) Favourite Blush:

 I only own about 2 blushes, but I really love my Sleek one in the shade 'Flushed' which is a really lovely deep pinky/red.

 4) Favourite clothing item:

I would probably say a big knitted jumper or cardigan, but I also love my Leather Jacket I got from Zara, it's so warm and comfy and I wear it everyday! 

5) Favourite Autumn Lipstick:

I love anything deep red for Autumn! SO I would say my Rimmel lipstick '480 classic Wine' or a deep red one that I have from MUA, I don't know the number of this one becasue the label has rubbed off, sorry. 

6) Favourite Auntumn Jewellery item:

Oooh I don't really have one for this, because I just tend to wear whatever goes with what I'm wearing! But I think my gold collar necklace from Kukee is quite Autumnal.

7) Favourite Autumn Perfume:

I think it would have to be either, the body shop Vanilla perfume, because it is so lovely and lasts for ages or another body shop perfume called 'Amorito' because this one is such a lovely scent, I can't describe it all, but it reminds me of Christmas and my Mum because she always wears it too!

8) Favourite Miscelaneous Autumn Item:

My fingerless elbow length gloves form H&M! They are knitted and deep burgundy and I think they are called 'hand warmers' but I just love them! 

9) What is th ething you look forward ot most in Autumn?

HALLOWEEN HALLOWEEN HALLOWEEN!!! :D I get so excited because I love any excuse to dress up really! I always dress up as a witch, not in one of these revealing costumes that people wear to parties, but in a black dress with tights and hat haha!

10) Do you go trick or treating, if so what are you planning on dressing up as this year?

I don't go properly trick or treating, but we take our next  door neighbours little girl around our road to the neighbours hehe! She is only 3-4 and last year she dressed up as Tinkerbell, and I was a witch (again) so I will probably do the same this year. I also love to paint fake injuries on myself, a bit like I did the post on the ripped nail I made, so I could do some more blog posts on that sort of thing for Halloween perhaps?

I hope you all liked the Tag, I tag anybody who wants to do it because I don't want anyone to feel left out so feel free to just do it and say I tagged you :) 

Get ready with me (video)

This is my first ever video so I am quite nervous! I wasn't sure how to set it up so I hope it looks ok? (the video is also flipped incase you are wondering why my nose piercing is suddenly on the other side of my face :P ) I also don't know what the rules are about using music, but the song is 'Holocene - Bon Iver) I am sorry that it's very small, but to be honest I'm too scared to upload it to youtube! So this will have to do for now :( I am also sorry (I have many apologies) that It's not always in focus and I'm always looking away but I couldn't really see what I was doing. Hope you like it x

I Love Carboots

Easter is over... so you know what that means? CARBOOT TIME!  I do love car boots, especially when I find a bargain. Admittedly sometimes they are full of junk or just things from house clearances but occasionally you spot a jem. Today I went to the first one of this year and I found a few little things that caught my eye! What are the best things that you have found at a car boot? Let me know in the comments, and there is a little extra at the end!

This Rimmel eyeshadow was in a box of 5 things for £1. It's not something I would have normally bought but I couldn't find a 4th item so I thought why not?

 These were also in the box of 5 things for £1 and so was the little black pot and the makeup bag below. The colour trend lipstix is by Avon, (I hadn't realized this at the time)

 

I bought this little matte black glass pot to put my makeup brushes in.

 

 Rose truffle, Siren, Totally Teal

I have never tried a No7 nail polish before, I don't know why but I never look at the No7 counter either. Perhaps I should! But anywhooo  the two on the left were 50P for both! They look quite similar in the photo but the one in the middle called Siren is definitely much more red, whereas the Rose ruffle is a much softer pink. The totally teal polish was 50p and is a mini one.

 This pretty little hanging heart was only 30p! I love things like this to hang in my room.

 

And here is the little surprise, (he wasn't from the car boot, don't worry!) This is the little kitten I mentioned in my last post, we got him yesterday and I just love him. When we went to pick him up there was also a little tiny black kitten who was just a few weeks old, I wanted to get him too, but he would have be too little to be around are bigger cats. We have now changed the name of this little black cat from 'Inky' to 'Pickle', purely because we have another cat called Indie who is a bit daft to say the least, so we thought he would get confused when we call them. I hope you like him, and don't forget to let me know what your best car boot buys have been!
