Paloma Faith Inspired Make Up

Long time no see! I missed everything that comes with blogging along with chit chat with all of you and looking at your amazing buys, or looks, or suggestions. And this nostalgia came at the worst time since I have exams AGAIN and piles of books to study. Currently reading about the joys of schizophrenia. Yeah.

How did I ever think that I will be blogging from London? That was dumb since in the end I was out all day, crossing things of my wishlist. Futute post will be a review of my trip. :)

Today I decided to get back in track, and since my dark brown roots are all dyed, copy Paloma Faiths look. You'll now ask, "Who's she??". She, is an amazing and talented singer I've been obsessed with the last few months. My daily routine includes listening to her songs and singing along. Since she started as an actress and studied Drama, you might notice her in the The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus. She is an interesting person since she has also worked as a magician's assistant and as a burlesque dance. If you listen to her song New York you'll definitely get hooked up with the pretty melody and video. I've also seen her new single Do you want the Truth or something Beautiful in Mad the other day so maybe you know it.

Her look has vintage character along with 50' pin up girl make up, her special eyeliner and bright red lipstick. Even closer look here

















Wearing : Dorothy Perkins Dress , Mum's Vintage Earrings, Bershka Belt

Make up : Lips - Maybelline Color Sensational Lipstick in Fatal Red (or Lady Red in Greece)
Maybelline Lipliner Moisture Extreme in Red Glamour

Eyes : Bourjois Liner Clubbing
Mac Fluidline in Blacktrack
Rimmel Sexy Curves Mascara

Blush : Mac Pink Swoon (not that you can tell :P)

Hi Claire! I used Wella Koleston 7/73 or 8/74. The colour is basically the same on my dark brown hair. I have a post on that hair dye http://dream-of-dreamville.blogspot.com/2010/02/diy-hair-coloring-in-10-steps-with.html
