Happy Halloween 2013!

Happy Halloween Sweetheart Fashionistas!
I don't normally dress up but this year I thought I'd give it a go. This is what I quickly created! The sexy skull nurse:

Yes it's not the best but it was really good fun!

I thought I'd go as a skeleton nurse so on top of porcelain foundation, I used lots of black soft pencil eyeliner all round my eyes first. I then used the smudging end to blend in and make my nose black as I didn't think having a totally black nose would have looked good on me.

Then I put brown eyeshadow on my checks and some more of the eyeliner mixed in on top. Finally I put pinky-red lipstick on and used the eyeliner to line my lips and put lines across like skulls' teeth! Overall, a fairly sexy looking skull nurse AND it all washes off easily leaving nothing behind. That was especially significant as I have a very important weekend ;)

What did you dress up as?

Planned outfit for romantic meal

On Friday I'm having a romantic meal with my boyfriend for my birthday, so I thought I'd put together an idea for what outfit I could wear using Polyvore:

Birthday meal with boyfriend <3 by sweetheartfashion featuring ASOS

ASOS dress
£22 - asos.com

DAY Birger et Mikkelsen straight jacket
£290 - farfetch.com

Yves Saint Laurent black pumps
£495 - ysl.com

Tiffany Co bracelet
£405 - tiffany.com

Isabel Marant gold jewelry
£355 - forwardforward.com

Oscar de la Renta belt
£365 - modaoperandi.com

I brought the Asos dress and if you've seen my previous posts you'll know I have the gorgeous Tiffany's bracelet thanks to my lucky find in a vintage market. Unfortunately I can only dream of owning YSL heels at the moment as well as that specific blazer, belt and necklace but I plan on wearing items similar. 

I absolutely can't wait and will of course load pictures of my final look from the night as well as from all the other events planned.

What's your favourite outfit for an event?

Lace Bandeau Dress

Today I ordered two gorgeous dresses from ASOS for my various birthday events next week. One of them I've made into a set on Polyvore to show you. I got this stunning one for a wondrous price! And I even brought the belt too which was also on sale and all with 10% off too thanks to student discount.

Autumn Wishlist

My birthday is next month and I know exactly what I'm buying to complete my wardrobe for this season!

These are some of my favourite pieces.

Autumn Wishlist by sweetheartfashion featuring leather look pants

Black fur collar coat
£55 - missguidedus.com

Leather look pants
newlook.com

GUESS by Marciano black leather boots
£120 - guessbymarciano.guess.com

Topshop red handbag
£45 - topshop.com

Mulberry black glove
£200 - mulberry.com

Woolen hat

I love that fur coats are in this season! So warm and such a luxury look! I particularly like ones like the one I've featured here from Missguided that are leather jackets with a big fur pelt. So chic!

Leather gloves are also so in and I couldn't be happier. They are a timeless classic of elegance and I cannot wait to get a pair of my own! I doubt I'll get some as lovely as the Mulberry ones shown here but there are plenty of gorgeous ones around.

What key pieces are you wishing for this season?

Rouge Romance

Today I discovered a new app called Polyvore which is for the website polyvore.com. It is such a great site! It similar to stylefruits (if you've seen that website) but this is far more user/community based and creative as not only are you able to put together outfits, you can completely decorate your page with accessories, backgrounds, images and writing. Just like editing your own page or advert for a high-end magazine! This is my first creation and I can't believe how well it turned out, in such a small amount of time too. It's so pretty!  

I called it Rouge Romance. Definitely my dream outfit for a date or red carpet event!

Cute Hair Day

I love the end effect from having my hair in rollers! It can take a while but it's so worth it. 

I put in TRESemme volumising mousse while it's still wet to add body and volume, and some S Factor heat defence spray to prevent frizzing. After using my Remington curling volume styler to get a sleek finish, I put my hair in jumbo velcro cling hair rollers. Because my hair's so long I have to use some clips to hold it in place better. 

Jumper - Next

After leaving in for as long as possible, I quickly run my GHD hair dryer over it to make sure it's completely dry and take them out. It's always a good idea to add some TIGI Catwalk volumising hair spray for extra root boost and all day hold.
