Hey!!

So New York is in the throws of New York Fashion Week – Autumn/Winter’12. There are models, designers, makeup artists, bloggers, photographers running all over the city!

So last Thursday, Mattie from Mattielogie hosted a mixer for fashion bloggers of colour. I loved the idea of meeting other bloggers of colour especially in an industry like fashion. Since fashion and beauty go hand in hand, I found myself at Pranna. Pranna is a SouthEast Asian restaurant that is beautiful and huge! I definitely need to return for full dinner.

I decided to make my lips the focus in keeping with the current treads of bold lip colours. I paired a grey sweater dress with a bright , purple/magenta lip, Smashbox’s Be Legendary Lipstick in Vivid Violet.

I adore this colour. I’ll do a review on this one soon. I kept the makeup simple, a soft smokey look, which I actually work to work that day and then added more liner and the lipstick. From day to night just like that….I wore a twisted bun.

Laters!!!
