Look Of The Day - Cobalt Blue

I wanted to take the time to thank all of my loyal followers for continuing to stick with me despite my lack of consistent posts. Sometimes it is easy to get into a funk and not document what one is wearing.
My schedule has changed and I have not been able to post as frequently. I am working to remember to at least photograph Looks of the Day. I appreciate your support. I have missed you guys!

I finally got around to wearing my blue mock wrap dress which I purchased from metrostyle.com
I paired it with a black shell from Ashley Stewart for modesty.
I also wore my coordinating Peruvian Earring jewelry.

I love this dress!






























I really wanted to make good use of my NK HD eyeshadows.

My collection is nearly complete.
Please look for an updated post soon.

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.
