LOTD: Formal (1)

Hey lovelies!

So I just had my big weekend! Two formals and a alumni tea party. Needless to say I'm exhausted. My first look from this weekend is from my own formal (Sapphire Ball, cute right?). For my hair I had my friend curl it and after this picture was taken I pinned my bangs back.
For my face I used:
*NARS Primer with SPF
*NARS Sheer Glow Foundation in Deuxville
*Benefit Hula Bronzer
*MAC Summer Rose Beauty Powder for Blush
*MAC Shell Pearl Beauty Powder as a highlight

For my eyes I used:
*Benefit Lemonaid
*MAC Bare Study Paint Pot
*MAC All That Glitters all over the lid
*MAC Satin Toupe in the crease
*MAC Twinks in the outer V
*MAC Shroom as a highlight
*Mac Retrospeck as a highlight
*Maybelline Lash Stiletto Mascara
*NYX Blue Sapphire Eyeliner


And yes, the handsome guy in my picture is my lovely date, and also now my boyfriend :)
What's your favorite look for a special occasion?

Formal Look Ideas

Hey everyone! So I already mentioned how I purchased a dress for my formal, but today I got some shoes to match :) I am soo in love with the outfit, and even more pleased with the price! I only spent about $50 altogether. Not bad at all.

Anywho, I've been trying to figure out what I want to do with my makeup for the night. I do have quite a bit of time (April 30..) but I am an overachiever, and want to be able to practice and perfect a look that will have my date's jaws on the floor!

Some pictures for your viewing pleasure:

The colors are white, brown, blue and grey. I have a few ideas.. neutral brown with blue in the crease, neutral with brown in the crease.. But the dress is very summery/tea party, so I want to dress it up.

So the big question is..
What are your ideas?
