Happy Halloween!

Dress - ASOS Revive
Tiara - Topshop
Gold heels - Red or Dead


Happy Halloween everyone! I hope you are all having fun dressing up and scaring your friends! I love that people get so creative this time of year and I can't get enough of the photos that fill up my Facebook, Twitter and Instagram with crazy costumes and faces painted. 

I have previously dressed up as characters such as Wednesday Addams and Alice in Horrorland, and this year I decided to be an evil queen! This was inspired by a gothic dress which I already had in my wardrobe and a black tiara I found at Topshop that matched my dress perfectly. All I had to add was smokey eye make-up, lots of hairspray and a pair of gold heels.

I had a lot of fun going out that night and getting into character with deathly stares and an evil laugh! Also, I love my tiara so much that I wish I had an excuse to wear it more often. It's probably a bit too fancy for a trip to Tesco!

What did you decide to dress up as for Halloween?

The Halloween Edit

If you're anything like me, and love an excuse to dress up, you will be spending this month planning your Halloween outfit. This year I will be celebrating with my zombie bride flatmate! She has a beautiful lace wedding dress from Edinburgh's vintage store Armstrong's. It will be hard to help her ruin it with fake blood and ripped holes but it's for a good cause! As for my costume, I will be an evil queen, wearing a black regal looking dress with a gorgeous black tiara I bought today from Topshop. Smokey eyes will also be a must. I can't wait! 

If you are still trying to decide on your costume, this season's trends may help. There are spiked studs, printed skulls, velvet and lace all over the high street so get shopping! 


Bodysuit Topshop £35, cat mask Accessorize £3.50, 
spiked heels River Island £65, feather cape Topshop £85,
lace skirt River Island £30, skull blouse £20 with skull
 necklace £8 Boohoo.com skeleton jumper ASOS £30




I will be channelling Charlize Theron's character Queen Ravenna (who you may remember I have previously blogged about!)
