Retro Inspired FOTD


(Excuse the bemused expression and scruff of babyhair).
I've been wearing my hair in its natural curly state this week, so I thought what better to team soft curls with, than retro make-up.
This look never fails to make me feel glam, and whenever I'm having a particularly bad and cruddy day, I slick on some red lipstick and I'm ready to face the day.

  1. Your hair is lovely like that! That basically is my everyday look, I used to make a bit more effort and do the whole eyeshadow, black winged gel liner, red lip she-bang every single day, but I've totally gotten lazy and now I just do a bit of dark brown eyeshadow for liner and Lady Danger, or sometimes Russian Red on my lips.
