Hello all!
Please excuse the dodgy hair, but this is what a load of dry shampoo will do to it.  Also, please excuse the fact that I am dressed in the same outfit as my previous post.
Last night I went to a costume party for a friends 21st and we had to be an historical figure.  I racked my brain over who I could be and decided in the end to be Mary Quant.  She is a huge icon from the 1960's and she even created the mini skirt.  I remember researching her in my early teens and I knew it was a good decision.  I did very sixties inspired make up (including little gems which you can't really see).  I just went for a monochrome striped knit and my suedette skirt.  It's a mixture of sixties and seventies.  I don't have a pair of full length boots, so I just paired this knee high socks with some suedette ankle boots.  I just finished off with a 'pork pie' hat.  I have been after one of these hats for ages, so I'm glad I found this one in Primark over the summer.  I just chucked on my usual jewellery to finish off the look.
It was a really good night and I'm just heart broken that my make up will never look this good again!
(I still dress like Puglsey Addams - even by accident!)
