Outfit and Art!

Hello lovely reader and welcome to Sunday's post!

This will be a short outfit and make-up post along with a photo of my latest drawing! This was taken last weekend, the weather was really bright which made me think of wearing... *le gasp*... white! Shocking. It's just shocking- the goth girl wearing colour! Hehehe.

I was very happy with my makeup (I say that every week, my skills are limited so I just do the same thing all the time hah). I overdrew my lips with a nude lip liner which is why I have that silly pout in these two photos, I couldn't help it! Also I am growing my hair and it is starting to get longer which I am very pleased about, aiming for shoulder length hair as I miss my curls. Hope it doesn't take forever!

Simple smoky eye and winged eyeliner! Just look at those lengths of hair on the left though, finally growth! 

I have no idea why I look so smug in this photo... This was my outfit of choice, super comfy! Quite colourful by my standards. 

These are the cat ears I wear when I do my make-up to keep my hair out of my face! Love these things. I wore them out a few times and got miaowed at by strange men in Dublin so I stopped doing that. True story. 

The light in my room sucks in Winter so it has been damn near impossible to draw for probably two months. I have a daylight lamp on the way BUT we got some decent sun lately so here is what I came up with. Pretty pleased with how it came out. I have since bought an A3 sketch pad as A2 is very limiting in terms of how much detail you can fit in.

I am glad that Spring will be coming soon so there is more light, I love Halloween and Christmas and Winter but they can be very restricting months in so many ways.

Do you prefer the Winter or Summer months? Does the Winter gloom get you down or do you thrive around this time of year?

Hello there and welcome to another post!

Last weekend I put together an outfit around these earrings! I forgot I had them and so I decided to wear them out. I've been a bit wary of wearing dramatic earrings since I got my short hair as they stand out a lot more but I was happy wearing these! They are from Claire's accessories years and years ago. 

I went black and white with my outfit since the earrings were silver and black! Also I am just really into monochrome.

This is the beautiful pattern on my skirt! It's subtle but just adds extra dimension to the skirt and to any outfit. This came from Penneys (Primark) and has been with me for a few years at this point. 

This is a close up of the pattern on my scarf, also from Penneys! I think the skirt and scarf play off one another quite nicely and the overall vibe suits the earrings really well. 

I wore my Beetlejuice bag along with my zipped wedges, both of which are from New Look. 

I kept it simple with a black vest top and lace bolero over the top along with my usual lace gloves and some silver and black jewellery.

My makeup was a black and greyish smoky eye! Sooo predictable. 

I filmed an outfit video! This was lots of fun to make and I hope you enjoy it!
