Outfit of the night 'Goth Night'

I am off to see my friends burlesque show in Glasgow tonight. It is a goth themed night, there will be burlesque performances and I will be assisting my friend on stage, my part is a nun. This is what I'm wearing to the event, I will be changing into my nun costume when I need to.

Dia de los muertos sugar skull girl on canvas

I have not made a blog post in quite a while. Alot has changed, I have been trying to draw in my spare time. I also found out I got into the course I applied for! HND visual communication/illustration. Very happy about that! I got a canvas yesterday and decided to do a day of the dead (dia de los muertos) inspired painting. I'm fairly happy with this!

Volume 'Rock Chick' Hair

I really like the rock chick inspired, volumous, big hair look! So today I tried to get this effect, I'm pretty happy with the results!  I was inspired by these two hair styles.

After blow drying with a round metal brush. I split my hair into three sections. Starting with the lower section I used my Babyliss Total Freedom curling tong, not on every part of my hair just random bits. Then did this for the rest of the hair. For styling it and volume I used VO5 Extreme style matt clay. For extra 'oomph' use some 'dust it'. Then I just styled it about with my sticky fingers from the matt clay and blasted it with hairspray. Here are the results. :)
