Fall Look Book 2015

So I Decided to make this Fall look for you guys because these are one of my favorites videos to watch. I love seeing how other people put together outfits to use as inspiration. Remember me saying on my last post about my wardrobe being 95% black and grey? Well the other 3% is probably white and various other dark colors.

For the first look,

 I put together something that was comfortable to wear but still looked very put together. I paired a baggy grey long sleeve top with leggings. (leggings are THE BEST!) Since the bottom sides of the top had high cuts, I wore a white camisole underneath. To make the look feel more like fall I wore these awesome riding boots I found at Marshalls. What made these boots stand out was that they are meant for people with larger calves. I have pretty average calves but these are great when you want to wear boots with some cute chunky leg warmers. For jewelry I wore a chocker just to give it a bit of an edgier look.

Second Look

For this I put something a little dressier but still very comfortable. I wore I grey turtle neck and high waisted jeans and some BEAUTIFUL little booties from Guess. To accessorize I wore I big chunky purple scarf and a long dangly necklace underneath. this look is great of you're going out for a date night or any occasion where you might need to dress up. aside form this being a very cute outfit it is very cozy and warm.

Third Look

Here I wanted to put together something I wear often when on outings with my family. I wore I long cardigan and underneath I wore I light pink basic tee from Forever 21. Again I paired this look with blue jeans and a little booties. Thus time the booties did not have a heel. These are actually my favorite boots. I received them as a gift from my brother and these are the most comfortable boots I own! the are convers booties so they feel just like the sneaker. this look I great because of the comfort and style.

Fourth Look

So for the fourth and final look I wanted a look that was "cool" lol. I wanted something that was very easy to throw on an run out of the house. This would be something I wear on a day of running errands with my girls. I wore a white cami with a grey jacket over it and some jeans. For shoes I wore my, surprise, grey converse sneakers. It is such an awesome casual, street style look with minimal effort.

I will leave here the link to the video! Make sure to give it a thumbs up and comment any other thing you would like to see from me!
Thanks DR❥
 

Fall Look

It is no secret I love dark colors! My wardrobe is 95% black and grey so its no surprise fall is my favorite time of year for makeup. Its the time of year I get to play with blacks, burgundies and all of those beautiful fall colors. I have put together this tutorial on my FAVORITE look for fall.

This look is probably over used by me but I LOVE it I love the dark colors on the eyes and the neutral lips. (Granted my lip color choice is almost always the same color, or atleast in the same spectrum.. NUDE! I blame my brother for it cause when I first began wearing lipstick was when I purchased my first high end lip product. I bought the Nars Velvet Matte Lip Pencil in Cruella in a Sephora in Kansas City while on a trip with my husband. I wore that lipstick every time I got the chance. One Sunday morning over posole with the family he made a rude comment as to why I always wear red. Since that day I try to resist from reds and only wear them for special occasions. He has yet ta make a comment on the nudes.)

ANYWAYS got way off topic..  This look can be worn in the day time if instead of black shadow on your lid, you wear a soft brown. I would think it is easier to use black liner for all over the lid for application of this look such as NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil in Black Bean and just set with black powder. For this look I used NYX Jumbo Eye pencil in Milk so I could pack on the black shadow. The Naked Basics palette is pigmented enough but I need the exrta help the Jumbo pencil provided. 

I did I full face tutorial and I will list the products I used.

Everyday Make Up For Hooded Eyes

I know that for a lot of people with hooded eyes it is hard to wear eye shadow. I know, because I have hooded eyes.. and NO it is not a bad thing, but when you wear eye make up on an everyday basis it can be a little troubling to spend so much time on your eyes and no one see it unless you close your eyes or you are looking down. At least that was my issue. For me it took a lot of trial and error on figuring out what looked best on me so I would just love to share my technique on applying a look you can wear on an everyday basis.

This technique can be used with any colors but I am creating a soft everyday look. What I use is the Naked Basics Palette and only used 4 the shades. Before Applying the eye shadow I used a primer to ensure I would not have any creasing and a long lasting finish. After applying the shadow I winged out my eye liner and applied a coat of mascara.

Now the first thing I did after applying the primer was pick up the shade(1) "Naked 2" and applying that all along the crease to use as our transition color using a dense blending brush.
Next I applied the shade(2) "Faint" with a small smudge brush only using the tip for precise application. When applying I look forward and apply the product right above my actual crease. Once I have mapped out where I am going to "create" the illusion of a new crease I blend that out. 
Then I take the shade(3) "W.O.S" and apply that on the center of the lid and blend out using an angled blending brush. Finally I use the same brush and apply the shade(4) "Venus" on my  brow bone. Now that I have the product in place I use my fluffy blending brush and blend everything together.






Now my look is complete! I love this for an everyday eye look. It is very soft and you can quickly turn it into a night look by adding the black shade "Crave"  to the outer corner of the eyes and making a sexy smokey eye. This look is great for people with hooded eyes because we are creating an illusion of a higher crease with this technique. That way our makeup doesn't get hidden by the crease in our eye.

    

 

 

This is the final look! Thank you so much for your time and I hope you have learned something new (: Make sure to follow me on instagram @_oohmydarlin

I have provided a video to further show my technique! Make sure you thumbs this video, comment and subscribe! My very first video.. how exciting! lol



Hard Candy Lipstick in 'Thunder' Review

Lately I've been into BOLD lip colors! On a trip to Wal-Mart I saw This beautiful collection from Hard Candy called "Fierce Effects Lipsticks". They were completely out of all the shades except a hot pink shade called "Provocative" and the purple shade "Thunder". There was one of each left and I had to have the Purple one. I had been on the hunt for an inexpensive lip color in a dark purple shade and when I saw this I knew I had to have it! I had it for about a week and a half until I worked up the courage to wear it. When I put in on I felt some type of way I hadn't felt for a lipstick. The name of the collection says it all cause I really did feel ~fierce~ *hair flip*. Of course my family had things to say about it but they could not change my mind on how I felt about this color! My husband was not a fan but he saw how good it made me feel so he accepted it. My mom is not a fan of dark colors so she was the most persistent that I take it off but there was no way! (sorry mom) 

This picture was not edited. Taken in natural light.

When applying this lipstick, it went on so smooth and kept my lips hydrated. It felt like wearing a normal lip balm so it was a weightless feel. I must say that the wear was not very good. I had to reapply several times through out the day. No big deal! BUT, yes there is a but... when I would go to reapply I noticed the color had bled out of my natural lip line and had a smudged effect. All I had to do was use a small concealer brush and a concealer the same shade as my skin tone and clean up the edges. Although that was a hassle that is my only complaint for this drugstore lipstick.




The tubes they come in are very flashy and beautiful. These are also great if you display your lipsticks.

I would recommend this lipstick if you don't mind fixing the smudging on the outer line of your lips. of course I haven't tried any of the other colors so I cannot speak for those but I defiantly want to try then. As soon as I get my hands on them I will review and swatch again. Thanks!
