Pretty Obsessed

Archive for the ‘Kiss & Make-Up’ Category

It’s no secret I love 60′s fashion and mod make-up …so when I saw Beyonce’s Countdown music video, I was in love!

I especially fell in LOVE with the yellow cat’s eye you see in this photo right here. She transitions throughout several colors of the same look, but it returns to yellow – the color pops against sun kissed skin, super sexy.

I came across this video and was very impressed at her skills…the power of makeup…amazing!

I have forgotten how gorgeous Halle Berry is, not sure when I stopped paying attention. She is just amazing, at 44 she looks great, hell she looks great period. She had a child, and has a man haircut and still looks better than 90% of women out there…Here’s to taking care of yourself and keeping yourself together.

I’ve been a huge fan of Julianne Hough since her days on Dancing with the Stars…she was an amazing dancer and choreographer, one of the main reasons I even watched the shows in the first place. But then she left…and now the show sucks. Another reason to adore her is that she is dating my favorite radio personality Ryan Seacrest. By doing so she has been thrown into the spotlight and is stalked regularly by the poopoorazzi. She’s longed moved on since DWTS and now is a singer/actress…

While decided which photos would compliment her the most, I realized I am not a fan of her red carpet style at all… with her it’s a hit or miss and usually a miss in my opinion. As far as her hair and makeup goes…always a hit in my book.

On a random side note, is it me or does she resemble a pretty little Siberian Husky? It’s those cabo water eyes of hers, those adorable little dogs have the same kinds!

 

I wear the side braid pretty often, at home, and even when I get dolled up. Depending on how your makeup is done, and how you are dressed the look is incredibly versatile. I saw these photos of Rihanna and thought, SUPER cute, how did is it I’ve never thought of wearing my side braid this way? Her hairstylist framed her face with two small braids ,that then attached them to create a more beautiful side braid. With some patience and practice, this upgraded braid is totally wearable.

Old-school Indian bridal makeup always seemed too strong for my taste. When I think of Indian bridal makeup I imagine big beautiful dramatic eyes, with a smooth rosy complexion and a hint of pink kissed lips. With my wedding day inching closer and closer I have collected many photos for inspiration. Here is a set of photos of new Indian model Amina showing Bridal looks and she looks great.

Lauren Conrad is the only normal thing that came out of The Hills, I actually adore her. She does the casual thing very well…hair simply kept, nails always done, cute accessories and easy pairings.

Her looks are casual, easy and very chic…

Check out some of her makeup and hair tricks…

When I hear about the Mango Clothing line, I think of Penelope Cruz and her sister Monica designing a 25 piece collection along with accessories. I guess it was supposed to be a competitive counterpoint to the release of Madonnas H&M collection. From what I’ve seen the clothes look beautiful. What was really beautiful though were the ads for the line…The makeup, the clothes, the hair and the lighting, is done perfectly. It makes me want to get up, get dressed and get dolled up.

If you ever need inspiration when you have a brain fart while standing in front of your closet…here ya go!
