If you close your eyes, it's a beautiful world (Outfit Of The Day)

Not sure what I'm doing here, but I thought it looked cool so here I am, bobbing my head to the side and closing my eyes! It's proper spring weather here - crisp and sunny and it makes me happy!

Here is what I wore:

Makeup: 

NARS Tinted Moisturizer (I am in the shade Alaska)... I have been getting a ton of questions about it and I promise a more thorough review will come once I use it a bit more. It claims to do all these fancy skin improvements (like fading hyperpigmentation) so I've gotta see if there is any truth to that! It is nice though. I wouldn't say I'm blown away by it or anything, but it is nice. 

Laura Mercier Secret Camouflage concealer (shade SC-4) on any problem areas,

Burberry Tangerine blush,

Dior Amber Diamond as a highlight.

On the eyes I used Benefit "Where There's Smoke" eyeshadow all over the lid, and "Hot Stone" by Bobbi Brown in the crease. Eyeliner was MAC Kohl Power in "Raven", mascara was Giorgio Armani Eyes To Kill.

On my lips I am wearing one of my favourite lip combinations as of late - Lancome "Bronzelle" lipliner, YSL "Lingerie Pink" lipstick (that liner makes that lipstick so much better and more wearable for me), and a touch of MAC Dazzleglass in "Baby Sparks" at the centre of the lips.

Outfit:

I have to apologize in advance that I have no idea what brand my shirt is. I got it in Arizona from a small local boutique by the ASU campus, and it cost around $30. The tag of it that said the brand ripped and fell off after numerous washes. I've worn this top a lot, I love it! You can find things along the same lines (this one from ASOS is pretty cute and would fit the outfit just as well).

Jeans are my newest clothing acquisition - coated black skinny jeans by J Brand. I had patiently been waiting for them to go on sale because I refused to pay full price for them. Every time I had seen them on a casual Olivia Palermo outfit it made me want them even more (although hers are probably the full on leather ones, not the coated haha). J Brand is my favourite brand for premium denim, by far. I find that they fit me the best. It's not a bargain brand but I buy jeans once or twice a year so it ends up being worth it for me.

Finishing up with my trusty ol' DV Dolce Vita "Wink" loafers. I wasn't able to find them online anymore, they seemed to have sold out since they were one of last year's models. However I found a similar pair by Steve Madden here if you are interested. They're more studded but they look really cool in person - I tried them on not that long ago :)

I hope your week is off to a good start!
