Cherry pie MAKEUP

Hello hello sweethearts, today i would like to share with you my makeup of the day.
I love cherry toned lipstick and i think they look particularity flattering on pale skin tones, they give that snow-white-innocent look i really like.
In this look, the eye makeup is very simple, a very fine line of eyeliner and a vanilla eyeshadow, maybe a little bit of highlighting in the crease area and on the brow bone. A little flush on the cheeks and then the cherry lipstick, i recommend using a cool toned one because it will make your teeth look whiter.
As for mascara i used the Rocket because it gives a lot of volume and it's very black.
I hope you like this look. Oh, the lipstick i used is from the Zoeva "Sweet love" lipstick palette, it's great because it has a lot of different colors, all very pigmented, the only annoying part is the application.

Get the look: The Carrie diaries


Hello everyone! As many of you might already know, few weeks ago it was launched "The Carrie Diaries" the prequel of the very famous Sex and The City. I could not resist the temptation to create some inspired outfits. The show takes place in the 80's, so the key world is color blocking!
Some of the outfits might look kind of unusual to you guys but that's because i tried to stay as close as possible to the 80's style that is very fancy and extravagant.
In the young Carrie's style we can find something in common with her grown up version: they both share the love for tulle, sequins and puffy dresses.

If you want to look like teenage Carries living in the 80's, all you need is:
- Point flats and heels ( a must have in the 80's)
-Colorful skirts, shirts and tights
-Colorful blazer, possibly with shoulder pads
-The iconic black bag with nail polish splatters
-Skater skirts with a polka dots pattern
-Black round sunglasses 







This first look is all based on color blocking, as the main trend in the 80's, almost everyone was wearing bright colors mixed together. If you want to recreate this look don't forget to wear tights, it was very inappropriate to go out with bare legs. The dresses were mostly to the knees and they were all  cinched at the waist and loose on the bottom. 
This second look was inspired by the outfits she wears when she's not in NYC but in her town. She pares skater skirts with colorful tops and shirts and then she adds on top a cardigan or a hoodie. Again, don't forget to wear tights and to rock the black sunglasses. 



Last but not least, her NYC party outfits. These are the most funky and sparkly ones. She loves wearing puffy tulle dresses, possibly with some sequins on it and she pares them with animal print cardigans or colorful jackets. At this point, she doesn't wear tights anymore because it wasn't fashionable in NYC. Her shoes have always a little bit of heel and of course, they are pointy. 


Carrie takes NYC



I hope these outfits got you in the 80's mood, if you have any requests for my "Get the look" posts let me know! Have a great day, i'll see you next time.
Bye Bye!
