HEAD TO TOE BEAUTY: KATY PERRY

I've always been a big fan of Katy Perry's makeup. She knows how to switch it up going from wearable to whimsical. She takes risks and that is a must in my book. I mean, what is style without risks. Here she rocks a wearable look that I think most women would love and can be worn by any skin tone. Love everything about this love, from head to toe!

FALL MAKEUP LOOK

Fall is one of my favourite time of the year. This fall, I'm extra excited because I love the plum/berry lips that is just so popular right now. Also, the fact that it breaks the rule of combining two extremes, in this case smokey eyes and dark lips is a win/win in my books. Decided to snap some pics of this look as sort of like my face of the day. Hope you guys like.

HEAD TO TOE BEAUTY: SOLANGE KNOWLES

Beyonce's little sister is all grown up. My jaws almost dropped when I saw her looking so effortlessly gorgeous as she attended the Ermenegildo Zegna "Essenze" Collection Launch Event. With big beautiful hair, flawless neutral makeup and a blush dress, strappy shoes and golden accessories, Solange emanates a confident woman that is comfortable in her own skin. She just radiates sophistication and exudes ladylike sexiness without showing too much skin. Some may think the double slit is considered showing too much but in a world where women wears underwear as pants, this look is a breath of fresh air.
