PerfectCombination

Many of these items I have been using for years....others are new to my favorite list. I love love love the smash box "blemish control" primer! Thank you to my good friend for the suggestion! I start with the primer straight out of the shower or on a clean face. I then move on to my foundation. I have said it once and will say it again, Girogio Armani foundation is hands down the best! I blend this with a beauty blender using about 2 pumps. After applying eyeshadow, I apply Koh Gen Doh yellow primer to anywhere I want to highlight, blending with a beauty blender I then apply concealer. Finish off by setting with Anastasia yellow setting powder. For contour, I have been loving the darker shade in the Brow Bar to go. This color is the perfect hughe when thinking of a subtle contour. Seems weird I know, but it works.   As far as blush/bronzer, I use clay bronzer that comes in a little clay pot. I love that this color is a bronzeish blush color. You can build on it and it really works with what ever color my skin is, winter or summer. As a side note, I have been using the same pot for two years!! Good investment for sure. Lastly, I always set with Mac fix plus, especially in this dry winter. It adds hydration and makes your makeup settle and melt into your skin.

Girls&Boys

Boys&Girls

I needed a good hoodie but I didn't want your average hoodie.  I wanted something that I could wear with our warm winter we are having.  To the Men's section I went.  Not only do they have some amazing sweaters, but this one has the perfect details, zippers on the side and faux leather pocket!  Perfect with the combat boots and my favorite jeans!  I ordered an extra small and it fits perfect....and the boots run true to size or on the slightly larger true to size side ;)

Skater skirts are so popular this year.  You can pair them with any of your favorite over sized sweaters or a embellished blouse.  I found these boots to be perfect for the holidays but you can ultimately wear any comfy close toed shoe!
