Summer is almost over and with it that horrible tan you got while falling asleep at the beach, the never ending crush on the lifeguard who is suddenly less cute without his uniform and those reckless nights where you throw flip flops on when leaving because you're too lazy to actually look cute. It's time to get back into tip top shape for
fall and here are the highlights, suggestions and fashion you should be looking for when you venture into the well known realm of
BACK TO SCHOOL SHOPPING!
Makeup
When it comes to make-up I tend to let my lips do the talking. For fall I have the best of the best suggestions for great makeup quality under 30 dollars.
The picture above shows the
Lorac Pro Pallet which is great for all skin tones it showcases natural hues that are usable for low-key class days and long club nights. Of course it also shows my obsession for Mac lipstick. The fall essentials when it comes to lipstick should showcase dark sides. Don't be afraid to experiment with purples and deep reds. My top picks from Mac for fall would be
1.Film Noir 2. Media 3. Matte Antique Velvet 4. Rebel A3 5. Sin. If you are into contouring
Sephora has a great deal on a contour pallet by
Cover FX for 40. As for a highlighter I love the
Mac Prep-and-Prime called
Peach Lustre for 26. As for concealer, powder, and blush it depends on the look you're going for. For fall I suggest
Sweet As Cocoa for a blush, but remember If I am a darker-shade then you the best is to get an opinion day of by a Mac consultant. Now get your scrunchies and favorite hair accessories together we are going to
Fall Fashion.
**DONT FORGET**
Skin care is important! My favorite is Proactive I've been an active user since I was young and it does wonders on your skin.
Wardrobe
My favorite trend that is in (FINALLY) is the love of early 70's late 60's fashion back with a vengeance. We are talking mid length skirts is faux-leather, turtle necks, plaid and all things jeans (including dresses and skirts).
Did you get that? whip out your moms old jeans skirts the trend is here to stay!! Did I mention clunky shoes to go with all these fabulous trends? Punks and
Hippies unite because it's out turn to shine this fall, even
Jackie O fans can sing and dance along with us.
Skirts: For above corduroy and jean skirts go along way this fall, and the more buttons the better. Obviously the stars have caught wind of his summer trend like
Taylor Swift,
Alexa Chung, and
Courtney Trop, but lucky for them its easily transformed as a fall essential with tights and high boots. This trend reminds me of the the lovable TV show with the original triple threats in fashion and on the streets.....
CHARLIES ANGELS.
Pants
The long pants tailored look is cute for the office and on the street. Stretch those long legs in a nice long romper or just simple bell bottoms. My favorite combo of pants was the beginning of Cherry Bomb, featuring Kirsten Stewart and Dakota Fanning. The beginning showed the lovable 70's, bell bottom pants and promiscuity. whats not to love.
Dresses For dresses, the mid droop and flare at the end makes for a perfect combination. One of my favorite looks off the runway that shows off cool black dress by Valentino 15 paired with the flirtiness of the 70's fashion.
My favorite movie that shows this is American Hustle, the dresses in the film was an amazing showcase of the 70's designs without the tacky floral decor, or lava lamps.
