TUTORIAL || ROGUE [MARVEL] INSPIRED MAKEUP LOOK

Check out how you can get this look >> HERE <<

GET THE LOOK || MARY McDONNELL [PHOENIX COMIC CON 2015]

It wouldn't be a Major Crimes Week without a look at something purely Mary related...and she did wear this to an event where Major Crimes was featured so it's kinda related. That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it.

The second that I saw this outfit, I was in love! From head to toe, in love, and it just had to make an appearance on my blog. It was destined to happen sooner or later and here it is.

In this blog are a few ideas on how to get a look similar to the one she sported for her photo op; the black blazer, the blood-orange-floaty top, the skinny jeans and the suede-esque booties. I was instantly in love with the ankle boots. This is why she’s one of my style icons. Plus, her makeup was enviable. I tried to recreate it in the makeup tutorial included.

Check it all out HERE at my blog.

And thus closes Major Crimes Week for this time. There will undoubtedly be one for season 4.5.

With Major Crimes returning to screens in just a couple of days, I dedicated a week of posts on my blog to my favourite show. Two of my favourite things of the show are the fashion and makeup. As a result, I've got a week of 'Get The Look' posts where I provide ways on how to get an outfit inspired by the characters. I looked specifically at the fashion and makeup used in 'The Special Master' two-part season finale. I also included Hobbs, even though she wasn't in those episodes as part of an ongoing request which I'm finally able to fulfill. Below are the first two posts from the series, with two remaining, going live on Friday and Sunday.

The gist of these posts is so that you can emulate the characters and copy their style. Personally, I love to get shoes inspired by Captain Raydor and 'walk like Raydor' because I adore her style. Grey LaVoi dresses Mary McDonnell beautifully. You can embody the characters and maybe gain a little bit of their confidence through some items of clothing and makeup. I know that I do.

Makeup tutorial for Captain Kathryn Janeway

It was Captain Janeway's birthday yesterday. On my blog I simply had to mark the occassion. When else would a blogging day fall on one of my favourite character's birthday? I couldn't pass up that opportunity.

REVIEW: BORN WITH TEETH by KATE MULGREW

I've always wanted to read a book written by Kate Mulgrew because I love the way that she verbally communicates a story or an anecdote and I thought that a book would be just as interesting. Being a fan of Kate's for the guts of fifteen years, Born With Teeth was naturally going to be in my possession. I read it within the space of three days and I had a few thoughts on the book. I decided to share them on my blog which you can read HERE if you'd like.

MARCH 2015 FAVOURITES

March was an eventful month from it being St. Patrick's Day here in Ireland, then I was the lighting designer for the Choral Society's production of The King And I. Plus, for Lent I gave up makeup buying and it was sooooooo difficult with all the new releases happening for Spring so I went through my collection and basically shopped it.

So, check out what I loved throughout March, and it's not just makeup! >>> HERE <<<

STAR TREK WEEK

Hey everyone, in case you didn't know because I'm useless at cross-posting to all the places over the Internet as one usually skips my mind, it has been STAR TREK WEEK over on my blog page. It started on Sunday to coincide with First Contact Day, April 5th. I've been sharing makeup tutorials that are in theme with the department colours of the uniforms and couple of posts centred around one of my favourite characters, Deanna Troi.

TUTORIAL || STORM [MARVEL] INSPIRED MAKEUP

This post marks my ONE HUNDREDTH post at my blog. For this milestone, I wanted to do something different and with that in mind, I took inspiration from one of my favourite X-Men, Storm. I took her iconic colours [primarily from the animated series] and created an eye look that is unlike anything I've ever tried before. LINK
