WEDDING BEAUTY

After this past weekend everyone seems to have weddings on the brain.
Obviously, the much anticipated royal wedding took place (and did not
disappoint).  I, myself, spent the weekend in beautiful Princeton, New
Jersey attending another wedding.  (Slightly smaller, just as lovely).
So I thought I’d write a quick note on my thoughts regarding wedding
glam.  When attending a wedding, subtle is always best.  Think soft,
pretty or romantic instead of sultry, edgy or drastic.  The bottom line is
weddings are about one girl and one girl only. She’s the one wearing
white… and possibly something blue.  It’s her day to shine so save that
statement-making look you’ve been dying to try for another event.
When choosing a hair style, opt for something simple and classic.
Maybe soft curls or a smooth up-do. Keep makeup clean with a neutral
palette. Every wedding is different, but whether it is a grand black
tie event or a backyard BBQ, keep wedding hair and makeup polished
and pretty.

DOUBLE UP

If you’re going to dye your hair pink (we all have to do something wild at least once in our lives), definitely pair it up with a hot pink lip!  The two complement each other and stand for everything that only a girl can be.
