Have a very Glam Christmas!

My friend Mikey was playing a glam themed gig on tuesday, so I dressed up all Christmassy. Also a you can see I've dyed my hair. On the packet it was bright bright red but it's come out sort of Burgundy. I still think it's quite pretty but it's almost the same colour as my Mum's hair which makes me feel a bit weird :P

Here's mah face:






Wearing:
Face: Illamasqua Skin Base Foundation in 02, ELF Studio HD powder, Sleek blush in Salacious
Eyebrows: Sugarpill pressed eyeshadow in Love +
Eyes: Darling Girl Blitzen Eyeshadow, Darling Girl Honeypot eyeshadow, black mascara, the liner is just some loose glitter mixed with ELF Studio Makeup Lock and Seal.
Lips: Red lip pencil (offbrand :P), Darling Girl Jolly Holly Hologloss 

Here's my outfit. I know I probably 'shouldn't' wear something like my plausuit, it's too high cut and not particularly flattering on my little round body, but I like it so who cares?



 Wearing:
Polka dot Jacket and diamante tights -  Topshop
Sequin playsuit - Asos
Hair bow - Dolly Dagger
Badge and necklace - Callooh and Callay
Shoes - Office (I would have worn more interesting ones but I cut my foot on a bit of smashed bauble :( )


For some reason here in the UK a disproportionate percentage of our Christmas songs are from the Glam Rock genre of music.  Wizzard, Mud, Slade, Bowie (with Bing Crosby who is, of course, totally glam) and of course this which you never here anymore. I wonder why...

Glamracket

A few weeks ago we went to Glamracket again. It was a lot more fun that time as I didn't end up having a panic attack and crying (well I did but it was on the tube. I had fun at the actual club).
I decided to wear my sequin playsuit again as it's the glam-rockiest thing I own that fits me at the moment. It seemed to fit a lot better than last time (in fact it kept falling down) but I don't look any less poured into it :P


Here's my face. I actually did a video tutorial of this but haven't bothered editing it because it ended up just being a hideous mess of me dropping things and failing :P If anyone would like to see it then I will do it though :)


Wearing:
Face: Primark Prime of your life primer, GOSH x-ceptional wear foundation in Porcelain, ELF complexion perfection, Illamasqua Sin powder blusher, Shiro blush in Potion, Mac Wonder Woman blush in Mighty Aphrodite, Mac Cherry lip pencil, NYX Candy glitter Red, Hard Candy Bling Bling glitter, Hi Fi cosmetics glimmer gel in Superstar.
Eyes: High Voltage Cosmetics brow powder in Redhead, Illamasqua Medium pencil in Sophie, NYX cream glitter pallette, Fuschia/purple glitter from TKB Trading, Illamasqua pure pigment in Static, black mascara
Lips: Morgana Cryptoria lipstick in Valentine, Mac Dazzleglass in Funtabulous
Here is Claire looking pretty:
Here is my new friend Tom. He insisted I did his makeup (I was rather drunk, that's my excuse) but here he looks none too impressed.

And here's my bessie mate Xenia, Claire did her makeup.


We all had a real fun time jumping around to Glam rock hits.
And now some silly outtakes of me behind the cut.
