Shopping!

I went to the mall the other day, and got these two pictures from Nordstoms. The first one is a group of looks from Stella McCartney and the second one are two looks from Donna Karen, I especially like the red skirt. I also decided to try a new thing for me. I bought yellow eyeshadow. I have seen it a couple times in various runway shows and decided I wanted to try it. I purchased Chrome Yellow by MAC, you can purchase this eyeshadow here. I feel like yellow is a hard color to wear because it can almost make you look sick. I find that wearing it only on the lids with the rest of the face plain, created a focus on the color and didn't make me appear like I was a clown. But, you also do not have to choose a bright yellow like I did, softer yellows or just applying a bright yellow sparingly or mixed with a lighter shadow can make this look more wearable for everyday.

Shoes

Today I just went shopping and walked around the city. I didn't end up buying anything, but atleast I had some really good Japanese food. These are the shoes I wore today, they are one of my favorites. They are Prada gladiators I got last summer. These are super comfortable and its pretty funny that even some brands have made fake versions, like these DKNY sandals. The straps on both are exactly the same... this is a real obvious copy. The only good thing about the DKNY ones are that they come in other colors, I was at Nordstroms and even saw them in silver.



Also in Nordstrom I saw these sandals by Enzo Angiolini, they also look suspiciously familiar to my Prada ones.
