i get home and have a couple of hours to get ready for tonight.
i get the dress out and hang it on the front of the wardrobe so i can see it again and again. i sit infront of the mirror, urgh i look a state. Ali brought me a set of make up for my birthday last year but ive never really used it, its still sealed. i open the seal, and see whats inside: foundation, blusher, eyelines, mascara, lipstick, eye shadow, and some other brushes and tools. i pin my hair off my fringe and apply the foundation with my hand - i have worn makeup before but i guess i kinda like being natural.
the foundation colour suits my own perfectly, and i apply a light pink blusher to the tops of my cheek to emphasis the cheek bone. i carefully draw a line of thick black eye liner along the top of my eyelids and a black pencil along the bottom then coat my lashes in layers of mascara to really emphasise them. i put abit of dark blue eye shadow on and smudge it to give my eyes a smoky look. i open the lipstick and its bright red, hmm, i suppose i might aswell. i apply it to my upper lip and then to the bottom and rub them together, i look in the mirror and am quite pleased with the look so far.
i take down my hair and search online for what i could do, my hairs dead straight without straightening it so i think i wanna give it some volume. i think my mum has some curlers in her room so i go and look for them. i find them in an unopened box under the bed and apply many curls to the underlayers of my hair and then a few on the top. i leave my fringe straight and hair spray the rest of my hair to hold it in place.
i slide into my dress, the silk rubbing against my freshly shaved legs. i shove of a pair of patterned black tights and into my heels. i cover myself in my perfume 'poppy' by marc jacobs and check the time. i have 15 minutes till adams due to arrive. i go downstairs and show my parents and my brother.
" wow remy, you look...different" sais my dad
" abit short isnt is rem?" asks my mum
"well okay its abit different to what i usually wear, but i wanna look good tonight for adam, and for.. ali"
"ah okay, well have fun anyway, and stay safe"
the door rings and my brother rushes to it. i check myself in the mirror and follow him through.
"hi, is remy there?" i hear adams voice and take a deep breath.
"just coming" i shout back.
i go round the corner into the hall way, his eyes widen and he coughs and smiles
"wow, you look.. amazing"
"thanks adam" i smile and take his hand out the door as we head to the party.
