It's My Turn To Be The Black Swan

Everyone all over Facebook, Twitter and Blogger land has already gone out over the weekend for Halloween, and I've loved seeing what everyone has gone as!  My friends and I decided to go out on the Wednesday - actual Halloween.  They're all still students and I'm still searching for a job now I'm qualified, so we can do the whole, nights out in the middle of the week thing.  In fact I might do a post on finishing uni and trying to find a suitable job soon, because it hasn't been fun and a good rant should sort me out!  Anyway, this Halloween my main goal was minimal budget, because of course I'm not working at the moment.  So I looked through my wardrobe and had a bit of a dilemma.  I have a long black dress, so I thought, I'll go as Audrey Hepburn a la Holly Golightly from Breakfast at Tiffany's - but the dress isn't anything like that at all.  It's all ruched at the front and actually looks more like something one of the gals from Downton Abbey would wear - but I thought if I dressed up as that everyone would be asking me who I am all night - and feebly explaining that "I'm dressed like someone from Downton Abbey" while not actually being specifically dressed as one of the characters would make me look stupid.  On to the next!

What's in my Travel Makeup bag?

I was going to try and take minimal makeup with me on holiday, especially because I plan on buying some in duty free at the airport.  When I photographed it all it looked like a LOT, but then I realised that in the grand scheme of all of my makeup, this is actually only a small amount! I probably wont use it all either, but you never know what you'll feel like wearing.  I've linked any reviews to products I've included - anyway on to what I'm taking!

Illamasqua Cream Blush - Lies

Hello my lovelies!

I bought this a couple of months ago, and I've been loving it!  It's from the Illamasqua Cream Blush line, but it's more of a cream highlighter.  If you look at it on the Illamasqua website here, you can kind of see that's what it's intended for, as I think it's far too pale and there isn't a genuine colour pay off with it either!  As it was a highlighter I wanted I'm happy with this product.
For all photo's I took one with and without flash.
