Holiday Make Up Guide - Part 5: Cool Blue Eyes, Wind-chilled Cheeks, Plum-kissed Lips

Think cool gunmetal grays and icy blues, and you’ll find yourself the most gorgeous winter beauty in this gray-blue coat. Bobbi Brown’s Midnight Metallics palette is the perfect solution to the look we want: light gray all over lid, medium gray on outer ild, and deep midnight blue in the outer crease. Dust cheeks with Chanel blush in Neroli Rose for a lovely cool flush. Apply either NARS Gipsy or Galaxy Girl lipsticks to lips for a very chilly, but entirely seductive, pout. Keep the skin simple with only the blush and the rest beyond flawless.

1. Tahari Wool Blend Swing Topper @ Nordstrom for $278.00icon
2. Chanel Irreelle blush in Neroli Rose @ Nordstrom for $40.00icon
3. Bobbi Brown Midnight Metallics @ Nordstrom for $45.00icon
4. NARS Gipsy or Galaxy Girl lipstick @ Sephora for $23.00

With a coat like this, one can truly get away with a whole myriad of looks, but this is our favorite. There is something about metallics and cool silvers and blues that just warms this outfit right up. Go easy on the dark blue in the crease for a lighter daytime look, or turn it into a full-blown smoky eye by deepening the color for sultry eyes for the evening.

Oh goodness! I love all of Bobbi Brown’s Metallics palettes but I opted for Laura Mercier’s Petite Palette in Nightfall instead because I love her too! There’s so much, who can decide??? 🙂

I totally love the coat 🙂 Really cute! Might have to hit the Rack and see what they have in coats. I was at Target today and man did they have a ton of nice coats, not as cute as Nordies I am sure but still cute for a big box chain store.
