BEAUTY BAR: Modern Hollywood Glamour

The year 2016 gave us a lot of intense makeup looks (think Kylie Jenner). There’s nothing wrong with wearing heavy makeup, but as we enter 2017, the most outstanding and unique looks will be the simple ones. There’s beauty to be found in simplicity. The easiest way to stand out in the new year is to do the opposite of what everyone else is doing. Amid the intense contour and eyelashes that might just take flight, stand out by going for a more natural, but still glamorous, makeup look.

This Fashionista let her natural beauty show while still looking made-up. Her foundation is light enough to let her freckles show; this look is refreshing and perfect to ring in the new year and new semester. A red lip adds glamour and an old Hollywood vibe reminiscent of our favorite stars of the silver screen. Simple eyeliner and mascara complements the lips perfectly—they add definition but they don’t fight to be noticed. This look is quick, easy and beautiful; it’s ideal for those days when you want to add something extra without putting in too much effort!

The sweater is perfect for the chilly morning walks on the way to class. Here in Mississippi, the weather doesn’t get awfully cold, so a sweater is the ideal cold weather garment. Knee-high boots offer a trendy touch to this outfit and pair well with the neutral color scheme of this look. Keeping this look simple, she adds eye-catching but sparse jewelry. Natural stone jewelry is trendy and beautiful—it’s an accessory that’s definitely here to stay. You can’t go wrong with a glamorous and timeless look.
