FOTD: Bright and Tasteful

I had an urge to wear yellow eyeshadow on Tuesday, and I needed something wearable for work. Not that bright yellow isn't wearable at my job where no one really cares, but I do try to prevent my boss from saying something so that I then have to watch my hair colors and makeup and tone them down. I used Robyn as inspiration as she always does lovely yellow looks.

I love the lid shade, but I'm not a huge fan of the liner. I originally wanted to use my bright blue Sephora liquid liner, but I thought it would be too garish. Now I wish I had -- the glitter just isn't doing it for me. But the look is still pretty, and I hope you enjoy. (I also included another outfit picture, lots of people ask for them!)

BTW, Violetta looks like this. I promise.

Inglot Look #1: Spring is Definitely Here!

I haven't played much with my Inglot palettes because I have this thing where I won't toy with something I'm unfamiliar with if I'm low on time. I'm in a rush most mornings to get out on time so that my husband isn't late (we carpool) so that means usually relying on stuff I use all the time and am comfortable with.

Well... boredom at work ended in this. I like the Inglot shadows, they need a good base but they are easy to blend out. It took a little work to pack on the lighter purple, but I like the overall look.

As for the lipstick, I picked it up last night looking for another "my lips but better" shade. I tend to buy really vibrant lipsticks and then have no natural looking ones. Needless to say, I love it! I wanted something like:




















I love the shades of lipstick she wears, even though she's blonde... so that being said, Cover Girl Lip Perfection in Darling would be good on a blonde ;-)
