Loved this shoot, I was so excited I started sending photos to everyone halfway through. I have plenty of photos of me prancing around in my underwear being silly, but I'll post some "serious" ones first.

The mixtape I made for today:

Phenomenal Handclap Band - You'll Disappear
Katy Perry - I Kissed a Girl (this is actually one of my favourite songs ever :X)
David Bowie - Hang on to Yourself
Pet Shop Boys - Rent
Velvet Underground - Venus in Furs ( I just loved the title of this. Not sure I actually like the song)
Britney Spears - Gimme More (no shoot mixtape is complete without britney)
Hole - Samantha
Hole - Skinny Little Bitch
Steve Miller Band - Abracadabra
Razorlight - Golden Touch
Ladytron - Destroy everything you touch
Edith Piaf - La Vie en Rose
Marilyn Monroe - Everybody needs a Da-Da-Daddy
Glenn Miller Orchestra - A String of Pearls

These are still unretouched. I'm loving the makeup I came up with, I'll do a breakdown below because this is one of my favourite looks ever. I was originally going for a very rock&roll black eye, but then I started adding purple glitter and lashes and it ended up more like a 70s thing.

Preen sheepskin leather jacket (above). I get this jacket into as many pictures as I can. Same goes for the one below. And below I'm wearing: trusty Miu Miu clogs, vintage mink jacket, Angie Gooderham necklace, the Great Frog skull earrings

Makeup:
A light layer of Face Atelier Ultra Pro Foundation in Wheat. Love this, the makeup stayed on flawlessly and it did not shine, or look cakey at all.
YSL Touche Eclat
Laura Mercier Secret Camouflage concealer in SC-4
Bobbi Brown Pale Yellow Loose Powder

Benefit Hoola Bronzer as contour
NARS Mata Hari Blush just on the top of the cheek

On the eyes:
YSL eyebrow pencil #3?
YSL eye pencil black as a liner on the top lid
The darker warm brown shadows from the Urban Decay Naked palette all over the upper lid
NARS Mata Hari on top, on the crease and blended to the browbone
MAC Blacktrack eyeliner
MAC Glitter Brillant purple glitter on the lower lid
Shu Uemura Luxe Black eyelashes
Shu Uemura Natural Lower eyelashes

Lips:
Too Faced Lip Injection (always prep with this for pictures)
MAC Creamola lipliner (love obvious lipliner)
YSL Rouge Pur Couture #10: prettiest pink ever

This is what happens on the floor of the studio when I'm doing makeup.

I let my hair dry naturally and then used 5 big Babyliss hot rollers this morning
