Daily Face - Week #3

Here with me in my first complete week of blue hair:


Day 15 sees me venturing out for the first proper day with blue hair, victory rolled to the max. I made the silly mistake of wearing a lot of eye liner on a day that decided to p*ss down with rain (I covered my hair with my scarf to save myself turning into some sort of Smurf creature). Ooh la la I got glamorous on Day 17 with the Society of Archaeology, Classics and Egyptology Christmas Dinner. Day 18 was taken just before a cheeky shift at my old work, Aloha - oh how good it was to be back! Not really sure what happened with day 19, I look very happy, and my hair is very curly! I like Day 20 so much I've made it my picture of a few sites I'm on - unfortunately the look went to waste as I then got ill...hence the sorrow in Day 21 =(

Join me next week for Week #4!

Dear Santa...



I think Christmas has been coming since mid October, but I haven't really given it much thought until recently - the mother's been nagging me to get a list to the family so I thought I should get it sorted. So, here is my little list of goodies that I hope to get in my stocking this festive season :)

Utility Jeans from Freddies of Pinewood
Glamour Girdle from What Katie Did
Gold Seamed Stockings from What Katie Did
Saddle Shoes from Rocket Originals
Naked Basics Palette by Urban Decay
And then to top it off I'd love tickets to three weekenders I really want to go:

Hotrod Hayride (obviously!)
The Rockabilly Rave
The Trip Out
That's my list, what's on your's?

Daily Face - Week 2

Here is the second instalment of my Daily Face series!


The week started just as glamorous as the previous week: cleavage was queen when I went to Keiran's surprise 23rd birthday party with a James Bond theme on Day 8, Day 9 was spent recovering, but my hair stayed in relatively well so it wasn't all bad, and then Day 10 was taken just before I went out on a night out rocking some vampy-glam look (I quite like it!). And then, well, uni work caught up on me, hence the boring glasses + no make up combinations of Day 11 and Day 12 (I was reading about Çatalhöyük if anyone cares to know - that's what the book says). Day 13 was spent bleaching my roots for the drama that was Day 14 and the Blue Hair Gate.

Stay tuned for week 3!

I'm Blue (Dabba Dee Dabba *Hair* Dye)

Hello! I hope everyone's doing well and is getting all those lovely festive feelings?

Well, I've had a bit of a hair change for this chilly season - it's gone blue! The photo below (sorry for the quality, I did it on my iPod) was taken the day after I dyed it so it's really vibrant, but it's faded a little to a lighter, slightly more aqua blue - I'll try and get photos of this to you as soon as possible, but at the moment it's all up in rollers as I'm off out for our archaeology Christmas party tonight.

For the dye I combined LaRiche's Directions Hair Dye in Atlantic Blue and Turquoise. You can see the various colours in my hair up close,  it looks like mermaid hair!


I chuffin' love it!

Daily Face - Week #1

I've decided, now I have a fancy iPod with Instagram and that, that I should take more photos of my face and what not. So here is my experiment:
I plan on taking a photo of my face everyday for the foreseeable future, no matter it's state, and report it back to you on a weekly basis.
I don't know how long this will last, but I hope it shall be fun whilst it does!

Here we go...week #1:


As you can see, I've had quite a styled week - doesn't day five (What I shall now term as the Sunday Set) look glamorous? Oh, the woes of being a vintage goddess! (Pah I wish!). I wore my hair up in victory rolls on day one, then set it on day two in an updo that stayed for two days before being brushed out and worn down for two days. Sunday Set came along on day five, and as you can see from both days six and seven it was highly successful!

So, there you have it, my week in my face.

Stay tuned for next week!
