So sorry for the lack of decent hair in recent makeup of the day post! I’ve been short on time & throwing my hair in a big coconut (what I call the hairstyle) has been convenient.

Today is Day 10 of the Taupe series and here is the look I came up with.

EYES:
-MAC Painterly Paint Pot
-A Silver Base
-LA Splash Heavy Metal Smokey Duo
-NYX Cottage Cheese Jumbo Eye Shadow Pencil
-MAC Feline Kohl Power
-L’Oreal Carbon Black Mascara
-Cover Girl French Vanilla eye shadow
-MAC Wedge eye shadow

FACE:
-MAC Cream Colour Base in Luna & Pearl
-NARS Laguna Bronzer
-Coty Airspun

LIPS:
MAC Fleshpot Lipstick

 

Today was so dreary out so I went all black and added a gray scarf–nothing fancy :)

Twenty-Two Days of Taupe: Day 8 & OOTD

Today’s taupe look is a bit more on the warmer side. Most of the colors used were from the Urban Decay Naked Palette. Believe it or not, this is my first time doing a taupe look with my Naked palette and I’ve owned this palette since July 2010!!!! Shame on me!

On a side note, I can’t tell you how much I’ve been diggin’ my berets! I only own three–very typical neural colors (to go with everything) but I think I may venture into different color ones–they are simply fabulous. Ugh–I can’t get enough!

And here is a breakdown of the look:

EYES-
-MAC Painterly Paint Pot
-UD Sidecar
-UD Virgin
-MAC Carbon
-UD Creep
-UD Sin
-MAC Wedge (You could use UD Naked)
-Urban Decay Zero Eye Liner
-MUFE Smoky Lash
-L’Oreal Carbon Black Mascara

FACE-
-NARS Laguna Bronzer
-MAC Cream Colour Base in Luna
-MAC Lightscapade Mineralize Skinfinish
-Finishing Powder

LIPS-
-NYX Strawberry Milk
-MAC Fashion Scoop

Quick outfit of the day–I’ve been into rockin’ a sweater and jeans lately–my comfy glam look-lol! It’s been so cold–who feels like dressing to the nines in this weather? Spring, where are you? O_o

The beret is from Forever 21, sweater is from Old Navy, jeans are from Forever 21.

My necklaces are from Charlotte Russe & my boots are from eBay. (*insert cheesy pose & smile in*) *lol* I LOVE these boots and need to get a new heel since I’ve worn these heels out.

Today today’s taupe look is a little more on the “dirty” side. Dirrrrty Taupe! *lol*
The colors were a little muddy but I still think it was a nice look–and it matched my sweater! See? *lol* Please don’t mind the messy updo. It’s been in the low 30′s and completely dreary out–I haven’t felt much like “dressing” up–it’s been comfy with a touch of glam for me :)
