Smoked Out

You guys aren't gonna believe how beautiful these next pictures are… (and the girl in them, of course) Jasper and I really had no expectations of what look we were going for when we sat down yesterday afternoon to glam her up for an evening out on the town… So I just picked up my Vice 2 palette and just kinda wung it… which let me say, I'm so glad I did because this intense smokey eye complimented Jaspers baby blues in all the right ways. BAM:


Am I right or am I right? *swoooon*

Pop!

I don't know about you guys but I am feeling soooo good to have finally made it through the long, cold, wet, depressing, pale winter months and finally have sprung into spring! I actually sat out in my backyard for 4+ hours enjoying the sunshine a few days ago and it's amazing how a little sunshine can just bring you back to life. With that being said, now that the sun has come out to play, I've been feeling much more colourful as far as applying my make up goes. I've been playing with blues, greens and purples on my eyes and have been grabbing for my bright pink lippies more than ever. Last night while I was getting ready for date night, I was drawn to a bright blue smoked out under eye and some luscious lashes. I grabbed my Tarte Golden Days and Sultry Nights palette and started to play… This was the final result…


Super fun, right?
