I got the BLUES!

So, I decided to stop laying around the house and take my friend up on an invite to a birthday party.  Initially I was in a funk (I litterally had the BLUES), and I decided it would be best to get up, get out, and get something (Ha! Wasn't that a song by Macy Gray?) to clear my mind of the drama!  Needless to say, I threw on a jumpsuit, tossed my hair up in a bun, accessorized, and played up my eyes with shades of blue.  I loved how it came out.  Take a look!...

Orange you glad I chose this shade!

Okay...Let me first start off by saying that I'm such a lipgloss girl, especially pink glosses.  Lately, I've been experimenting with lots of color and lipsticks to give my pout a pop and I must say that I'm glad I started stepping out of my comfort zone.  The newest addition to my lipstick collection has been MAC's Morange.  This color looks very intimidating, but once you try it on...it's a WINNER!  Especially for us women of color.  I lined it with MAC's cork lip liner just to mute it a tad.  I decided to keep everything else on my face simple.  Viola!
