.Maxi dress, carboot - £3 / Sandals, ebay - £3.50 / Primark Necklace - £6
The actual dress on a hanger is quite boring, so I took a belt and pushed loads of the fabric under and pulled the top over to cover the belt and also hoisted up some fabric from the sides up. It makes the texture much better and flowy, and It makes me less stumpy by showing some more leg. I don't think I'm quite ready for a proper full length maxi, I'm definately not tall enough for that!
Then I wore this whole outfit to an event in London for aussie. It was so amazing! They did my hair and makeup and my hair was literally the most amazing thing ever.
.
Getting all pampered..
My hair, before and after.
.
.The girl who did my hair was amazing! I asked for this hairstyle that I'd seen in more magazine (the one with katy perry on the front!) and she did it amazingly! I didn't know how it would look cause my hairs super duper long. I really cannot wait to try this on a night out! The magazine with the hairstyle actually has a tutorial with it so you'll be able to do it yourself, but because she talked me through it properly and I have the products, I may do a little tutorial for you all :)
My makeup, before and after.
.
.The makeup was fabulouuus. I genuinely thought I was wearing quite abit before (obviously some has come off during the day) but then she wacked loads on and I looked SO different!
We got this lovely goodybag too so I can actually do the hairstyle and all the products smell SO GOOD. Even the hairsprays, which is an added bonus.
.Thanks to all the 1000heads girlies and especially CHARLIE for letting me stop at her house after I ended up missing my coach home (long story, was an experience to say the least!) please go visit her lovely blog for me :)

what a bargain! you look gorgeous and i love how they did your hair! :) x
ReplyDeleteWow you look stunning... Your hair looks amazing too..
ReplyDeleteLovely dress.x
You should totally go for a maxi! Seriously. I thought that same as you as I am short too but if you get a maxi that is a plain print or plain colour then it actually makes you look taller/slimmer because it's all one simple design going downwards excentuating your length. And to be flirty, make sure you get either a bandeau maxi (to show the chest, shoulders and arms) or a strappy one :) Hope that helps! xxx
ReplyDeletei LOVE that maxi! im also quite short, so ive steered away from maxi dresses for a while, but i might try one out now!

i like hairstyles i want to say that i can serme whole life to the hairstyles i can easily do this i like it.hairstyles hairstyles are a primitive one and often linked with the popular and demanding styles in 60s and 70s both in men and women. A bridal hairstyles parallel hairstyles approach is still followed for girls and women in modern hairstyles amazing hairstyle with a little untidy that confers a rock & roll look to your hair. This curly hairstyles. style has gone through slight changes over the time. Unlikely to older styles.
