Look Of The Day (LOTD) Soft Canary Yellow Earrings

My goal was to wear coral lips and cheeks. I did not want to over power them with bold eyeshadow. I figured MAC RockIt Yellow would compliment the corals. However,
I was having a really hard time getting MAC RockIt Yellow to work. I ended up dabbing it off and applying NK HD eyeshadow in 3026. I had to apply that with my fingers. I think I may have used too much fix plus. Or maybe the brush I was using was not the right one.

Smokey Gray Eyes, Soft Gold Cheeks and Nude Lips

I love neutral eyeshadow. I am completely obsessed with it.
I am however looking forward to trying some brighter looks in coming weeks.
I could not resist the urge to do a smokey gray eyeshadow look.

I decided to let the eyes be the star of the show.
As a result I opted for a wash of sheer gold on my cheeks and nude lips.

Look Of The Day (LOTD) - Orange Lips, Feather Earrings, Funky Belt

I have been wanting to sport orange lips for weeks.
I finally got around to creating this look today.

I got these feather earrings from my local ethnic beauty supply store.
They cost me $1 US. I think they coordinate well with my new belt.
I got it from DOTS for $8 US.















You might be able to find this belt at Forever21's plus size store Faith21.












I love stacking bangles.
These wooden bracelets were also $1 US each at my local ethnic beauty supply store.

I'm wearing Sally Hansen Chrome
Nail Polish in BLACK PEARL.
