GOLD VISAGE...

What is it about this time of year that makes me start thinking about halloween costumes {nearly two months early}?  Maybe it is the fact that Miss R and myself's birthday is just around the corner and a fancy dress soiree is unfortunately not on the cards {the joys of sharing your birthday with your non-fancy-dress-loving twin sister, only joking Rose - well kind of!}  Anyway it means that I am probably going to be posting alot a couple of All Hallow's Eve costume and makeup musings up until the 30th October - I will try to space them out!  So the question is - gold leaf, glitter or paint...?

The obvious inspiration behind this conceptual catwalk makeup look, Miss Shirley Eaton looking HOT HOT HOT as Jill Masterson, the iconic Bond girl in Goldfinger.

...and whilst I am on the subject of this precious metal here are a few of my fave examples of 

gilded goodness from the A/W 2011-12 shows, gold glitterati gets my vote!
