It's that time of year, the ball season has commenced and even the archaeologists get one! And so we present to you our Spring Ball essentials...
Bex...
My look was inspired by a photograph of Marilyn Monroe I had came across in a book. Monroe has always been a style icon of mine and I adore the modest sexiness of the early 60's. I'm huge fan of Estee Lauder make-up, finding it always stays in place and you can't go wrong with a hint of Chanel No.5 darling.
I love any excuse to dress up and the archaeology ball was the perfect opportunity...I got to have my very own Marilyn moment!

I'm a LBD and red lips kind of girl, you may even say I'm obsessed. But what's wrong with a classic look that you know isn't going to date? I try my best not to create those outfits that I'll look back on and think 'Oh good lord Kathy, why did anyone let you go out like that?!' (Sadly, it has been done). I'm a complete make up snob, I'll admit it. I only want the best and I'm prepared to pay pretty stupid prices for it (Hence the reason I'm a poor, poor student). My ball recommendation is Mac Fix+ spray (£13 a Mac counters), applying after the application of make up or as a refreshment throughout the even will leave your face intact and looking all glowing and healthy!
Dress-Zara, Shoes-Zara, Ring-Whistles, Necklace-
a present from Egypt, Eyelashes-Eylure, Lipstick-MAC 'So Chaud', Foundation-Benefit 'Hello Flawless', Primer-Benefit 'Porefessional', Perfume-Daisy by Marc Jacobs.
(All photographs taken by Bex & Kathy...expect the one with both of us in, that was taken by the beautiful Shauna Platt)
