Creepy lolz.

So, next week, we're going to Ben from work's Hallowe'en-themed birthday party at a bar in town. We've all been told to go in creepy fancy dress, so I thought of the creepiest thing I could.

A ventriloquist's dummy.

Today, I did a practise run, making sure my hair would curl right and trying out the false lashes and I thought I'd share the creepiness. The pencil was kind of blunt when I did the freckles, so they're massive in this pic, but won't be on the day (I hope)...



Perhaps the creepiest thing of all is that I managed to find a pair of little girls' ankle socks with broderie anglaise trim, in a size three, that fit me perfectly...

That is seriously creepy. Those dummies are second only in creepiness to clowns. Quite unique too. I don't think I've ever seen anyone do that before.

I know, man - I hate dummies, dolls and all that kind of crap... So fucking scary!

Scary, with the added bonus of the eye makeup looking actually rather pretty, so go you!

Haha. Thanks. Lashes were definitely a good investment for £2.27 including postage...

I own countless pairs, but I've never found a pair that stuck on long enough for me to leave the house in them. Shame because they look great!

Maybe you need to try a different brand of glue or something... Mine were a TOTAL BASTARD to stick on, but they felt reasonably secure.

I bought individual ones to try this time. Now I just need a couple of hours to myself to try them out. HA.

This website has some tutorials on how to apply them best... http://www.wonderhowto.com/how-to/video/how-to-create-anime-eyes-with-makeup-272007/

Yes, I am looking at the anime one. :|

Cool!thank you :)

[rosiedoes.livejournal.com]

No worries. :D

Those dummies creep me out so much. Your make up is great!

[rosiedoes.livejournal.com]

Thanks - the pencil I bought is a bit lame, so hopefully I'll have a better one next week!

Every time I see ventriloquist dummies, I think of the R.L Stein book.

As a side note, that is a cute dress.

[rosiedoes.livejournal.com]

Hahaha - I used to have so many of his books when I was a kid, but I don't remember that one.

The dress is really sweet; I'll post proper pics on the day.

Argh totally creepy! Dummies are just messed up, I can't even watch that episode of Buffy with the dummy that comes alive.

Also impressed by your false lashes, I fail so bad with lashes.

[rosiedoes.livejournal.com]

They are a major bastard to put on. I'm going to buy some better glue before I go to the party, next week, but I did manage it in the end.

This is SO creepy and SO amazing! I love it.

[rosiedoes.livejournal.com]

Hehe. Thanks!
