It got chilly enough this afternoon for me to pull two layers and pants. I feel like this Winter, for me, is going to be much less about last year's asymmetrical layering, and more about boxy silhouettes (as appreciated in my last post) and perfection in all things unrefined, undercut by the tinier details - in this case, the greatest alternating brushed studs on any shirt I've ever seen. While denim, khaki and the (intentional) hair does amount to boyish-charm overload, there's nothing a bustier, high waists and favourite platforms can't do in the name of balance.
Seriously.
And a heads up in advance for you all: liking the insane leather on this Gigi Vintage purse? I'll be giving it away to one lucky reader starting next week, so get ready and excited. For a bit of a head start, start browsing Gigi for your favourite item.
As you've probably noticed, I'm damn tired to the point where dots of white eyeliner on the inside corner of the eyes (my usual I've-had-8-hours-sleep go-to) just made me look like a clown (my accounting mid-semester exam is tomorrow night - who was the genius who decided to schedule heavily weighted exams at dinner time? I should send them flowers).
A trick I've picked up from uni (don't ask) is that cheekbones pretty distract from anything bad that might be happening on your face that day - thus the use of a little of this refreshingly light FaceFront bronzer just below each cheekbone. Respect.
This is one of four of Facefront's 'Rocket Bronzers' - all of which do a pretty good job of covering a range of skintones, I'd say. Check them out HERE.
What a monster post. Back to books I go.
P.S. I finally caved to having a Shine By Three facebook page :) It's pretty (very) bare bones at the moment, but as soon as all my assessments are done, I'll be sure to make it pretty and presentable. In the mean time, just *like* and wait... HERE.
*love*
