Incursion: Fairy Tales

Incursion was on again, this time the theme was Fairy Tales. I have a nice ball dress in my wardrobe, but I decided to hire a costume from a costume store. They didn't have much in their collection, and I really disliked the quality. It's funny when my own 'costume' clothes are better quality than a professional costume hire place.

I settled on a blue dress and a white 'powder' wig. It was probably the laziest costume ever, I didn't have to do anything with my hair. I didn't have to put on much makeup. Easy peasy!

I like to think that I was dressed as an 'ugly step-sister' from Cinderella :P

I had a hoop skirt underneath! I was the only person in the whole club dressed in light clothing, hahaha! Silly goths.

 

Lana came from Sydney again to DJ at Incursion. It's always nice seeing her, she's a lovely girl. I wish I got to spend more time with her.

 

My makeup was very easy. I blacked out my eyes and had glitter lips. Glitter lips are very easy to achieve. Just put eyelash glue on your lips and attach glitter!

Incursion PLUS Extra News

This past weekend was a busy one for me! The club night Incursion finally happened, it went really well! Incursion was a costume party with a military theme, everyone looked great.

I have an online friend, Lana, who flew over with her boyfriend to attend and DJ at Incursion. It was a birthday present for her boyfriend, but they've also never been to Perth. I took the day off Friday to show them around a bit, I took them to Fremantle which I hoped they liked.
On Saturday, we all helped set up the club. Putting up posters and making sure everything looked nice.

Here's what I looked like on Saturday night for Incursion!

Nosechain!

 

I don't really own anything military themed. I had this military shirt laying around, it had gold buttons so I painted with nailpolish to make them black.

Top: New Look

Corset: Minx Corsetry

Skirt: Yours Clothing

Winklepicker boots: Demonia

 

Here's what my Sydney friend Lana wore! She looked very nice, and spend a lot of time on her costume.

She had a lot of Nazi imagery, but I hope my readers can understand that she's not a Nazi and it was just a costume.

 

There was ANNOYING DRAMA caused by people taking offence at some Nazi costumes. The people who complained are known trolls/people who cause trouble. They singled out one of my friends and have started bullying her online. THIS IS NOT OKAY. I have a lot to say about this subject, but I really don't want to write on my blog about that.

 

Here we are together in a very blurry photo :)

 

My best friend Merissa DJing.

 

Me and my friend Jane. She looked so CUTE!!

I hope that my Sydney friend, Lana, enjoyed her stay. I loved meeting her and showing her around Perth. She is really generous and kind, and I can't wait to see her again.

EXTRA NEWS:
My best friend has left Perth :(
Merissa has been planning to move over to the UK for a few months now. Tuesday morning she was flying out, so on Monday night a few of us stayed up all night to be with her. We took her to the airport and said goodbye to her. I cried!! :(
I'm going to miss her so much! I don't know what I'll do without her :(

The Halloween That Was...

My Halloween weekend is now over, and let me say it was JAM PACKED! Right now I'm sitting, waiting around for trick-or-treaters (we don't get many, but I'm always ready).

Here are the photos from my Halloween:

 SPACE GIRL!!!
Yep, I made the dress, shoulder pads, wrist things, ray gun holster. Basically everything!

For my makeup I used Stargazer facepaint for the silver side of my face. My lips were done using eyelash glue with glitter over the top. I also added stick on gems, stuck with extra eyelash glue. I covered up my eyebrows using a drag queen trick that I found on youtube.

I sprayed my hawk with white and LOTS of glitter hairspray. I love glitter hairspray.

This was at The Loft, two people dressed as Yip Yips!!
I had a 45min DJ set at The Loft, all my songs had something to do with Halloween.

The awesome coffin at The Loft! I wanted to steal it.

You know what? My costume reminds me of this colouring book: Fat Ladies In SPAAAAACE!

In other news, the band Alien Vampires who played at Club Unknown were really good. I enjoyed their performance and danced to all their songs. My best friends had a huge fan girl moment because they got to hang out with them at the after party. My other friend, Merissa, was in charge of bringing them over the Perth. I think she did a brilliant job!
