Camo goes glam!

Hey Angels,

Today's outfit is inspired by the recent drop in temperatures and… My recent obsession with all things camouflage!  The key in this outfit is the pops of neon pink that keep this tone on tone look interesting and ultra feminine.  I'm going to find a million ways to incorporate this J. Crew necklace (from their spring/summer collection) into my fall wardrobe, because I do believe in keeping the colors fun even as the layers pile on.  

Gap tank

Express jacket and camouflage pants

J. Crew sandals 

J. Crew statement necklace 

J. Crew Factory pave link bracelet

Stella and Dot "renegade" spike bracelet

Express multi-chain gold bracelet

Michael Kors gold chronograph boyfriend watch (Macy's online) 

I paired this bold outfit look with neutral (but shimmery) makeup choices.  This allows all the attention to be focused on my neon sandals and statement necklace!

Face:

MAC matchmaster foundation 

Makeup Forever concealer palette

MAC warm blend mineralize skinfinish

Eyes:

MAC- pigment in Naked all over the eyelid, sparkle Neely sparkle in crease, Center Stage in outer v, Arena in highlight /brow bone (not pictured)

Black eyeliner on top eyelid, leave bottom lid unlined for a very daytime/work look.  Finish with at least 2 coats of mascara on top and bottom lashes.  I'm currently loving Benefit "They're Real" mascara over Tarte lash primer.  A winning combo that will have people thinking you're rocking falsies!  

Side note: Since I started using this mascara I've probably worn falsies only a handful of times for special occasions.  

Lips:

OCC makeup lip tar in "kava-kava".  

If you want to punch up this makeup look to meet up with friends at happy hour, switch this lip color for something pink to tie in your shoes and necklace.  Our faves:  MAC Quick Sizzle, Candy Yum-Yum.  Or Urban Decay Anarchy.  

Hope you enjoy and are inspired!  Please share your comments, questions and your takes on the red hot military trend!  Let's talk fashion and makeup!!!

The truth about concealer

Hello Angels!!!


I wanted to write a quick not about concealer. In order to choose a concealer you would need to do the same thing as when you choose foundations. (See previous post)
As far as color you need to determine what it is you want your concealer to do.  Let us take undereye circles for example:


For a more natural look you need to use something with a yellow tone for lighter skinned individual and orangey colors for darker skinned beauties. For my everyday look I would go one shade lighter than my foundation. When I want a more dramatic look I might blend out an even lighter shade underneath the eye. I would also match the finish of concealer to that of my foundation.  Concealer is definitely something you should try on. Please do not be scared to try different shades to get your desired effect and shade.
