One of those busy bee days, up really early, home really late. Clothing needs to be comfortable yet presentable and makeup needs to last - all day. Which I'm sure you know isn't the easiest task without any touch ups throughout the day. I've been keeping work makeup simple this week, some liner, sweeping of eyeshadow, base products and mascara. Nothing too interesting or experimental goes on at 7am!
The trousers from Topshop (here) are perfect for daily duties, comfortable enough for work, roomy enough to eat and formal enough for events, especially when paired with a blazer. Post work activities are all about having a change of clothes, a higher pair of heels and some extra makeup but here I decided to combine the two, work & post work!
Skin
- Started off with a primer as I wanted to ensure the longest lasting base possible. Currently using Gosh Foundation Primer, which I haven't quite reached a verdict on yet so I'll keep you updated
- I'll slap some blush on my cheeks, here it was Mac Style which was paired with Une Mineral Powder
- Burberry Pale Barley eyeshadow (post here) swept all over my lid with L'Oreal Infallible Eyeshadow in 41 Taupe Royal in the crease to add some definition.
- I lined my eyes with Pixi Lash Line Ink and applied Avon SuperShock Max mascara
Lips
- Revlon Kissable Balm Stain in 015 Cherish Devotion (post here)
Here I was running around to work, Vogue Fashion Night Out and an extremely exciting launch...stay tuned!
I really, really love this outfit :)

ReplyDeleteThank you so much Marissa :)
DeleteWOW you look soooo stylish for work, absolutely love the outfit :) Wish I could wear an outfit like this to work lol :)
ReplyDeleteThanks so much love! What do you wear? X
DeleteMy clothing is boring lol - black/blue dress and/or black trousers/skirt with white shirt (medical setting). So unfortunately not much glam can 'spurce' up my outfit! lol
DeleteHow about a lovely necklace :) xx
DeleteYes, that's a good idea - give it a bit of 'glam' :P. Thanks for your suggestion, will definitely try it out :) x
DeleteYay! Tweet me a picture if you do :)
