Day 20: June 12
A little dressy for dinner with visiting in-laws. I love this dress, but I don't think it works on me--the seams are in the wrong places.
--Rayon two-piece dress in mauve tones: bias-cut shantung slip dress under a pieced, flared georgette overdress in gray floral print and pink/berry/lavender dot print. (April Cornell)
--Gray vintage-look mary janes in faux suede and patent with kitten heels. (Target)
--Hair twisted and pulled back on the sides with black clips, the rest left loose, and yes I missed that one lock falling to the front when we did the photos.
--Necklace of silver and emerald-cut light amethysts with coordinating drop earrings. (Treasured Finds)
--Face: Body Shop mattifying gel over entire face; Aromaleigh Illuminating Corrective Powder "Coquille Rose" for undereye circles; "Glissade" 1CL foundation; Pure Rouge "Borealis" (deep mauve with plum tones).
--Eyes: Pure Luxe "Romance" (lilac with turquoise shimmer) on inner part of entire area; "Ghost Mist" (soft gray with lavender interference) on outer half of browbones; "Carnivale" in outer corners and as liner; Aromaleigh Holiday 2008 (LE) "Mulberry" (medium warm purple with coppery shimmer) on outer half of lids; black mascara.
--Lips: Nyx round lipstick "Lala" (medium warm mauve/plum cream) topped with Nyx Black Label "Amethyst" (sheer shimmering lilac-mauve).
