Black and pastels

Here’s what I wore Friday August 11. I love the contrast between the black and the pastel colours, and I’m obsessed with the matching shoes and socks.

Many times before

Here’s the make-up I wore with this outfit. I’ve worn looks like this many times before, but I feel that you can never go wrong with a brown/bronze/golden eye and a red lip.

Nautical vibe

Here’s what I wore Thursday August 10. This is one of my favourite outfits I wore in August. I think the red blazer and the blue and white striped trousers look great together. I feel like there’s a nautical vibe to the look, which I really like.

Sable and sumptious olive

I got two more MAC eye shadows for my birthday, and my 15 pan palette is starting to look very nice. The shade in the top corner is Sable and it’s described as a gold-plum with bronze pearl and it’s a frost finish. I would say that it’s more of a brown shade than a gold-plum, but it’s beautiful either way. The shade in the bottom corner is Sumptious Olive and it’s described as a khaki with pearl and it’s a veluxe pearl finish. Most of my MAC eye shadows are either frost or veluxe pearl shadows, and I love these two finishes. I love these two colours too, and I’m looking forward to play around with them some more.

Here’s what I wore on my birthday Tuesday August 8. I celebrated the day with my nearest family, and it was a very lovely and relaxed day.
