1920's Inspired Glamour Look + NYX Cosmetics FACE Awards!!! Please vote!!!

I'm making a late submission to the NYX Cosmetics FACE Awards Contest! I love NYX products already, and I think this contest is an amazing opportunity for any aspiring makeup artist!

For my entry, I decided to go with what I love and went with a vintage inspired modernized 1920's look glamour look. I really love the over the top makeup women wore during the 20's and 30's and thought I could channel that for a glamorous, perfect for a party look that would work for women today. Please check out my video and don't forget to "like" it! Likes go towards my chances of moving to the next round!!!







And below is how I actually wore the look later that day.



Until next time! xoxo

Florence + The Machine - Music Video/Style Inspiration

So I haven't had a ton of time to update/shoot videos this month or last month with my move, but I wanted to do a quick post to celebrate the new music video for Florence + The Machine that was released this week, "Never Let Me Go".

I'm a huuuuge Florence Welch fan!! I love her music, her videos are a huge inspiration and I LOVE her style! I think she's gorgeous and I'm shamelessly trying to steal her hair style. (Sticking with red and trying my best not to cut it!!!)

I saw that the video was uploaded on Youtube last night and I was super bummed because it wasn't available for US viewings, so this morning I hunted it down and found it here: http://youtu.be/6us4sYsR34M

Her videos are all a tad bizarre, and half the time I don't know what the hell is going on, but they're all beautifully done and I get a lot of my inspiration for makeup and style from them. Can't wait to see more from her!
