Who has influenced your look?

Not many of us are born knowing exactly what our style will be, chances are that our looks has evolved over a number of years and decades based on trends as well as what we see on TV, Movies, Magazines, and of course now Blogs!

In terms of my makeup looks, I generally either do dark eyes/nude lips or winged neutral eyes/bright lips. Here are some celebrities that have inspired my look.


For dark eyes / nude lips I love Penelope Cruz, Jennifer Lopez, Eva Mendes, Beyonce, Megan Fox, Kim Kardashian, Lindsay Price and Angelina Jolie. 



For bold lip looks these babes got it covered! Natalie Portman, Rihanna, Jessica Alba, Eva Mendes (I like her with bright and nude lips), Kourtney Kardashian, Amanda Seyfried, Rose Byrne and Katy Perry.



As for hair, my favourite style is loose waves and if there's one celebrity that influences that look for me it has to be Marion Cotilland. Her hair looks fab whether long, short or mid length... aahh, serious hair crush here.

  6. I love this post! My makeup has been most influenced by Marilyn Monroe, Dita Von Teese (very fifties bombshell!), Edie Sedgwick (groovy sixties eyeliner!), and Daphne Guinness (dreamy & experimental!). I was inspired to dye my hair like Christina Hendricks after obsessively watching Mad Men. Rita Hayworth and Ann Margret are my other hair icons. Daphne Guinness, Dita Von Teese, and Joan Holloway are my biggest fashion influences. I love retro and feminine silhouettes, all black clothing, and ridiculous statement accessories. Haha I have a giant "inspiration" folder on my computer!

  9. I think the women in the dark eyes / nude lips category influence my makeup style. I like to emphasise the eyes and play down the lips since my lips a teeny tiny hehe :) x
