Looks - Subtle Gold and Teal with a touch of Patina Eye

This is a look from a week or two ago! I'm about to get my butt in the shower so I can get ready to dash over to Nordstrom's to check out Naughty Nauticals, so you can definitely expect to see reviews and swatches galore in a bit ;)

I used Soft Ochre paint pot on lid, Sunny Girl eyeshadow (LE) on...

Prom 2008: White and Light Colored Dresses & Makeup

Prom 2008: White and Light Colored Dresses & Makeup

I love this shimmering white dress, because it's not so white that it looks plain. I think the length is adorable, and it is a nice option for those who have some killer legs or don't want to wear a full-length prom gown. White is as flexible a color as black, so the three looks shown are merely...

Looks - Experiment in Black and Blue

This is from last night, where I was just playing around with makeup in order to avoid studying. :) I was trying to do something super over-the-top, and when it all finished, I was like, "You know, I could see myself wearing this out!" Not for everyday of course, but you never know!

Prom 2008: Vibrant Red Dresses & Makeup

I adore red dresses, especially these deep, elegant ruby red dresses. They're completely royal and classic, rather than in-your-face kind of red.

Prom 2008: Pale and Pastel Yellow Dresses and Makeup

Prom 2008: Pale and Pastel Yellow Dresses and Makeup

One of my favorite colors, especially on deeper skintones, is this shade of pale yellow; it's not too sallow nor too bright. It has just enough oomph to bring out your natural glow, while still being quite spring/summery. If you want to go big, try an eye that has primary yellow on the lid--you can...
