Ok. First of all, this look is not coherent. I just threw together an outfit and then randomly selected a palette to do an eyelook with, so the make up & the clothes don’t match. I don’t care though, as I don’t think make up & outfit should always match. In fact, I think that’s kind of boring. Initially I wasn’t even going to do my make up, but then I found myself with quite some spare time on my day off and decided to play around anyway. Here are the results.

Full face snapshot

I made this look using the Urban Decay 15th Anniversary Palette. My camera has a tendency of washing out colors, so this look is a bit more intense in real life, but I really liked how it turned out. You can see the colors much better in these pictures:

  • Rust colored top (New Yorker)

As you can see I figured out a way to now take pictures of outfits. I just take my mirror from the wall and stick it near a window. Hoozah!

Which do you like best? The make up or the outfit?

    Oh you need to start showing the eyeshadow colours you used I think 😛

    Can’t decide which I like best, your style is so quirky – makes me feel boring!

      I put the link to my first post about the eyeshadow palette I used when I first mention it. It includes pictures and swatches of the eyeshadow colors!

      I’ve always been a bit crazy when it comes to clothes. It’s just me I guess.
