Fashion Friday: My Valentino Wedding Shoes
Posted on October 12, 2012 | 4 CommentsI wrote about the first pair of shoes I purchased for my wedding back in June -- although my heart absolutely loved the Chanel pumps, my head was constantly reminding me that I would have a difficult time dancing, walking, and even just standing in them. I actually didn't think to consider looking for ankle booties for the wedding, but once I found these I knew they would be a dramatic and romantic alternative to typical bridal pumps/sandals!

Makeup Geek Eyeshadows
Posted on September 12, 2012 | 4 CommentsMakeup Geek contacted me asking if I would like to try out their new eye shadows from their own line that they recently launched. Of course I said yes -- nerds and geeks unite! :) I got to pick 12 eye shadows, and I swatched them all here. These come in magnetic refill pans similar to MAC Pro Palette Refill Pans, but these come with more product. Overall, I'm very impressed, especially with the matte black! Find out more about these high quality eye shadows at a drugstore price! Read more... -

Too Faced Better Than False Lashes
Posted on August 28, 2012 | 2 CommentsToo Faced Better Than False Lashes isn't your traditional mascara -- it's a lash extension system that claims to be like brushing on false lashes. Combining mascara and fiber is not new -- there are mascaras out there that already have nylon fibers built in, so what makes this Too Faced product different is that the nylon fibers are separate from the mascara giving you control of how much you want to apply. Check out my step-by-step pictures, and see if this will work for you! Read more... -
Urban Decay Smoked Palette Look 1
Posted on August 22, 2012 | 2 CommentsFor my first makeup look using the Urban Decay Smoked Palette, I came up with a basic neutral smokey eye that can be worn during the day and into the night. I used three colors: Kinky (matte ivory), Mushroom (shimmery warm pale gray), and Barlust (metallic dark golden brown). Kinky and Barlust are new and exclusive to this palette. I really like how applying Mushroom on the lid turned out -- it's a subtle gray that adds something special to a typical brown smokey eye. Read more...
