Fashion, from my point of view…

Makeup… September 29, 2008

Filed under: Fashion — marytomlinson @ 7:29 pm

Make up is so expressive…it can be a mask, and cover up the “real” you, it can be an expression of a mood, and it can magnify your beauty.

This first picture is of me, with just some very natural looking makeup on.

This second one is of me, I am listening to Pink’s “So What”, and was feeling frisky so I did up my makeup in a very dramatic fashion…check out the metallic red lipstick!

The important thing to remember is to pick colors that look good on you and work with your natural tones.  Also try to keep in mind placement.  My mom and I wear our makeup very differently…our cheek bones and eyes are very different, and because of this our blush and eye makeup go on in a very different fashion.  But always remember to play with it, and have fun!

 

Accessories! September 22, 2008

Come on ladies, you know you want to talk about it…Accessories!  Lets all just admit it, we are obsessed with them.  We all know that an outfit is NOT complete with out it, be it a little chain with the perfect stone, or a BIG CHUNKY necklace and super sized earrings.  We all love our accessories.  But here is one thing to consider, not everyone can wear the same accessories.  Lets compare my mom, and my self…My mom is delicate, she requires delicate jewelry, coupled with a great wrap, and/or broach…where I…oh my!  I can wear BIG BOLD…AND a wrap, AND a broach…heck, drape me head to toe in accessories, who needs clothing!

RED…do you ever wonder why the writer of the Wizard of Oz decided to have Dorthy wear Ruby red slippers?  Here is my theory…EVERY WOMEN should have some RED high heels!!!  This is a MUST for EVERY wardrobe.  I must admit, I did not get mine until recently, and my closet was strangely bare until they arrived.  Even my mom has them…talk about fashion forward.  Let me tell you about the pair that I got.  They are RED!!!  Paten leather with a lacy cut out, peep toe with a bow, sling back…completely adorable!  I love them…Here is a picture of my lovely shoes:
