I chose.....



Pairing #2! The Blue Smokey Eye!!

I chose this look because I wanted to try something out of my comfort zone! I do smokey eyes, but never a blue smokey eye. It may sound intimidating, if you're used to browns & bronzes like myself, but I think It came out very fun, but wearable.



Eyes
For this look, I HIGHLY recommend doing the eye makeup first because it is very dark and you will get some fallout! 
The main product I will be using the Ciate London: Olivia Palermo palette. I chose this one because the shades are the epitome fall, in my opinion.
  • First I blended a mix of London & Blondie into the crease, extending it past the end of my eyebrow.
  • Next I start building up the shade Double Down onto the lid. I dampened my brush to make the color more intense. 
  • After building it up on the lid, I just blended it out from the lid into the crease. 
  • I kept repeating the last two steps till I got the intensity that I wanted. 
  • I cleaned up the edges of my eye shadow with a wetwipe to give it a sharper cleaner look.
  • I smudged a black eyeliner along my waterline, tightline, upper & lower lash lines.
  • I smoked out the lower lashline with a mix of London & Double Down AFTER I applied all of my face makeup, so that I didn't mess it up with concealer.
  • Lastly, I added a few coats of the Maybelline Lash Sensational Luscious mascara to my top & bottom lashes!

What I'd pair my blue smokey eye with....

 I love Adore Me's website because they have such a huge variety. Besides lingerie, they also have some super cute rompers and pajama sets! Since I'm plus size, all of the styles I chose are from their plus section. They have an amazing variety of stylish, cute options for plus size women, which is really hard to come by. I've picked out a few flirtier styles & some super cute, comfy casual styles. They are all various shades of blue, to match the makeup, of course. (Plus, blue is my favorite color!)

Here are the flirty styles I chose!
