"Is it Halloween......?

....cos there certainly are a lot of witches out tonight!" That's one of my favourite Pete Burns quotes!

And indeed there were many witches out on Sunday night at Ponystep! Who cares if we were a week early? I was going for a Bonnie Parker-meets-goth look.....gave one of my old wigs a shake out (the boys have been playing with my collection of wigs a little too enthusiastically, I could hardly get a brush through it!), and stepped out gingerly in a beautiful old 20's dress Nanny Van gave me a few years ago but manages to shed sequins with every step....

Rudy and Nahid had surpassed themselves with Burton-esque half-face skeleton make-up - I was so impressed!

Richard chose to accessorize with a pumpkin-coloured Giles scarf.....has to be said he didn't last long, as his head got hotter and his neck itchier he decided to retire it early....

Jonjo gave it subtle-yet-effective-fatal-wound.....

And some (i.e.Jack and Troyboy) gave a nod to the proceedings with a slutty smokey eye...

Gwen's concession to Halloween came by way of Lene Lovich-style screams while gyrating in a black leotard - utterly AMAZING! Here she is hitching a lift to the bar....

This isn't the last you'll hear about Halloween on this blog I'm guessing....I'm off to Kent for some more childish shenanigans at the weekend. Kids are a great excuse to give it a bit of American overboard! But then you don't need an excuse to wig-up and don a bit of black....ask Stella....

Oh. My. God. Your Bonnie Parker dress!!!! Swoonorama. I spent to long deciding if I wanted to go out to Ponystep or not on Sunday. Had I known you'd be there looking like this, I'd have definitely got out of the house!
Next ponystep I will come say hello.
Or at the George on one of your nights x

Oh yes doooooo! I'm not at the George this Thursday due to the fact I'm seeing Antony and the Jonsons but otherwise every Thursday is a Madame day!....and you've got to get yourself to Ponystep! There isn't another party like it! x
