Will my weekly pinspiration end up a pinstrosity? My goal is to recreate some of my pins without investing in new products – highlighting what I like to create a look for me. Check out how I fared recreating my earlier picks!
I decided that I would try out a bolder look, which is pretty far out of my comfort range. I might go for a vibrant lip, but with understated everything else. I did my best to adapt the look to colors that work with my skin tone, as well as techniques that flatter my face shape.
This isn’t terrible for a first attempt, but it’s not great. I’d say I would continue practicing, but this just reinforced that I don’t like this type of makeup on me. Also, worst selfie photo angle ever.
My belted technique ended up being a combination of these two pins. Although Scott told me I looked “ridiculous,” I got a lot of compliments at work. It’s a simple finishing touch that pulls an outfit together, even something as simple as the classic cardigan/camisole combo. Definitely adding to my fashion repertoire.
50/50 again this week. What about y’all – any pinspiration projects you tried this week?
