BEAUTY BAR: Throw A Little Shade

Skies are looking gray lately, but that doesn’t mean your style has to replicate them. Wearing colors that pop is a great way to beat the cabin fever that accompanies this time of the year. Walking into your morning class looking fab doesn’t have to be a challenge with this easy look!

This Fashionista’s outfit adds some intensity to winter’s dull landscape. I love the way her turtleneck contrasts the rest of her look. Turtleneck sweaters are an extremely versatile cold weather staple. She keeps the rest of outfit simple and chic. Wearing a cardigan keeps her cozy while not being too bulky to walk around campus. When the temperature drops she can easily add a pair of wool tights or trade her booties in for some trendy thigh high boots to keep her warm.

To get this makeup look for yourself, this Fashionista’s advice is to start with Mac’s Matchmaker foundation. It adds a luminous glow to her face without looking too ashy or chalky. To get those envious luscious lashes she starts by using a lash curler and then adding a few swipes of her favorite mascara.  She recommends using the Too Faced Totally Cute palette in shades “Storm Cloud” and “Bunny Fu-Fu,” which complements her eyes perfectly. With her eye shadow perfectly blended, this Fashionista is ready to take on anything the day may throw at her!

So walk across campus like it’s your runway and as a bonus snap a selfie outside to take advantage of winter’s fantastic lighting and show off your style!
