ahoy!


I thought I'd post it before it got too far away from Halloween... Last week was my course's Halloween party and in true Rose Tinted Uncertainty fashion I went as a 1940s pin up sailor. I really wish I had a good picture of the whole dress because it is indeed my favourite dress. I'm sure I will make an excuse to wear it again and then there will be photos, I promise.

Anyway I thought you'd all be interested in my attempt at victory rolls. Tricky little buggers indeed! Mountains of hairspray and patience were used. I was happy with the results though and I am planning on mastering the art so I can wear my hair like this more often (without the teeny sailor hat of course). I also had little white gloves as well... I looked awfully cute!

Hat: Made myself
Dress: Vivien of Holloway
Lipstick: Rimmel Alarm

  1. That is SUCH a great costume idea! I think the victory rolls look pretty awesome, I need to attempt a 40s hairdo this weekend and I'm very worried about how it'll turn out..
