What to Wear for a night on the town!
Advice:
I try to do as much as I can myself. There is no need to spend a ridiculous amount of money when you are skilled at hair, nails or outfit choices.
Try to use photos of celebs for makeup and outfit guidance. Also, choose a celeb that resembles you - and don't hallucinate when choosing. I am obviously hispanic, curvy (and don't pretend that I am as thin as Kate Moss with short blonde hair) so I check out: JLO, Eva Longoria or Sofia Vergara.*Not saying I look like these gorgeous ladies - I am saying that I use there photos as guidance because they are 'similar' in that they have brown hair and eyes too. If you have blonde hair and blue eyes, these would not be the right faces to try to use for makeup and outfit guidance.
My entire look came from this photo because I love everything about it. She is tan, gorgeous and confident:
KoKo = Adore
1. Nails - I am not skilled at doing my nails. Mani $12
2. Hair - I can get away with straightening it most days but not for a night out. DryBar $45
3. Makeup - Hello skills. I do excellent makeup. This did not happen over night. It takes practice. I would suggest going to your local MAC counter and requesting a makeover which can run min. $50 in which you are asked to purchase products. Don't relax during this makeover and go to sleep. PAY ATTENTION. Ask why the makeup artist is using those colors, how they are applying it and follow them along while holding a mirror. I tend to use MAC for a night out because it lasts forever with very little touchup. Also, instead of wearing gloss - try lip liner as both lipstick and liner. I get asked all the time who did my makeup and usually the answer is: Me! $0
Try contouring
Final Look
4. The look - planning planning planning. Try to think about how you feel that day. What will YOU 'feel the BEST' in. Don't go super short if you feel like you didn't workout those legs as well you could have and will be thinking about it all night. Also, my best advice to young ladies is to dress for yourself.
