Clubbing Make up look

BAR/LOUNGE MAKE-UP (PRODUCT LIST) 

Hey Everyone, I haven't posted a make-up look so far which is strange considering I am in a full coverage/full face of make up most days due to work and then even more done up when going out on the weekends.

This look is a simple bronzed eye with a pink lip for a night out. I was going to a casual club which is technically a bar/lounge. As the venue is mainly a social environment it is not really the place to have a black smokey eye or something super dramatic so I went with  this look, I think it would be great when you want to feel confident and like a girly girl but not so done up that looking all cake cake cake (you get my drift).

I thought I would just list the products used so that you can get an idea of the makeup look. I took inspiration from this picture I will add bellow that I found on instagram and added my own personal touches as I did not want it to look quite as stark white and shimmery. The look draws attention to the eyes and lips and a bronze eye look really suits all eye colours but I do particularly love it on hazel eyes.

YSL LIPSTICKS

YSL LIPSTICKS!! 



We have never really splurged when it comes to lipsticks, These lipsticks from YSL cost a pricy 50 - $55, but I mean look at that packaging, they just look so luxurious. These lipsticks are the only really high end lipsticks we own, they were all presents given to us by our beautiful friends and our big sister.
If you are thinking about buying a YSL lipstick and aren't sure we think GO FOR IT, honestly even if you get one whether it be your perfect red, bright pink, or nude colour. These lipsticks are stunning, the quality is amazing super creamy and pigmented, and I mean the packaging is so so beautiful! We only have 3 but want to slowly build up a collection, see swatches and details below.. 





 So working left to right on the left there is the "rouge pur cotoure'' collection in the shade 07, it is a stunning bright pink, super creamy and pigmented, it leaves a nice sheen on the lips so you don't even need to add gloss, this is a very Maree colour, all black outfit with a bright pink lip can't go wrong. In the middle is the newest part of our collection our big sister got it for us when she was overseas, is is the different packaging because it is part of the ''rouge volupte'' collection in the shade 9. It is a beautiful pink colour, almost a brighter baby pink, this is also super pigmented and creamy we have been obsessed with this colour even every day with simple makeup. Then on the right is another "rouge pur cotoure'' collection lipstick in number 11. This is an Ebony shade the perfect nude pink lip its not too brown or pink which makes it perfect on our skin tone, this one has more of a sheen almost a bit frosted but it does not come off on the lips, it just looks more glossy. 


Well these are our 3 YSL lipsticks, you can buy them from 


We have nothing bad to say about these lipsticks, they are so beautiful and in our collection they are our pride and joy. So if you are looking for a high end lipstick we have mac lipsticks as well and we choose the YSL lipsticks any day the formula has a much bigger lasting power, as the mac lipsticks are almost too creamy that they slide right off the lips. Hope this helped!

SATURDAY NIGHT OOTN 
(CLUBBING)



Ebony and I have not been out on a Saturday night in AGES, but our favourite place to go has reopened, and we went to the opening night (of course) I was so excited to get all dressed up, standard me decided I wanted to wear all black because I LOVE wearing all black, it was a perfect excuse to put my new Zachary the Label top to good use, I paired it with this simple black slip skirt, and by connecting the 2 with the string it looked like the pieces really went together, I decided to do no accessories because accessories tend to be annoying when you are out dancing with friends they can get in the way. I just paired the look with a comfy pair of heels which is always important when you are going to be out all night. But the best advice I can give when it comes to what to wear out clubbing, have fun with it, use it as an excuse to really doll yourself up and look your absolute best! (excuse the photo of me being a loser)

SATURDAY NIGHT OOTN 
(CLUBBING)


So as Maree said Saturday night was our first Saturday out in a long long time, and I was super excited as well to get to wear my Zachary top that I am obsessed with! from the front its looks nice and conservative with just side cut outs but then the back is completely open which I find super sexy at the same time, I paired my new top with a skirt that I love just a simple body con skirt that would go with the top, this top I LOVE but keep in mind, you need to be careful what you pair it with because it is a bodysuit so the lines of the bodysuit will show up if you wear a thin skirt, I paired this with my favourite nude heels. I agree with what Maree wrote when going clubbing have fun with what you wear, doll yourself up and have a great night out!

PICK OF THE MONTH!

ZACHARY THE LABEL 


This month it was super easy to pick our brand of the month, it is a new brand it is around 10 months old, it is called 'ZACHARY THE LABEL' it is fair to say we are obsessed, now the clothes are a bit pricier but it is worth it, the clothes are made on site and with great material and the quality is flawless, the brands direction in our point of view is very classy, nice pieces that are very versatile with dresses that are able to be worn many different ways, all the skirts are longer, with lots of high neck pieces with very low backs which we love. Here are our favourites from the brand.




going through each column:
1. Kandice bodysuit: We own this is black. It is the same as the bodysuit Kendell Jenner has worn recently at the AMA's.

2. Extreme T-Bar dress:  I mean we cannot fault this dress it is stunning, it was a must that we make it part of our collection, we love the back very different from anything we own.

3.  Metropolitan Dress: we don't own this as it is sold out at the moment, it is a beautiful dress that can be worn so many different ways by changing what you do with the string, we love the versatility as it means you can get a lot more wears out of the dress. 




1. On the top is the Belize Crop in black, this was our first Zachary purchase for only $40 for such a beautifully made versatile top, for us this is a Zachary much have! The top is super versatile as you can change what you do with the strings making it look like a new top each time. 

2. Below that you have the long sleeve Belize Crop, which is also stunning paired with another favourite of ours the asymmetric skirt, we loved this skirt so much we have to buy it in charcoal and black, what we love about this skirt is the material is so flattering and with the added length it is very flattering on a females body, however the asymmetric cut keeps it young and still sexy.  


We cannot say enough good things about Zachary The Label, the designs are great, great quality and different from anything else out at the moment, 10/10 in our eyes, go check it out for yourself!! You wont be disappointed.

PUBLIC HOLIDAY OOTN 



So Eb and I went out Sunday for the Queens Birthday public holiday whatever you want to call it, there was HEAPS going on, I just had to show off Ebs outfit I am OBSESSED! I am not daring enough to do this plunge but Eb did it so well and still so classy. Public holiday night outs are really the nights to go all out, they are the nights where the club/bar/wherever is packed, especially with new faces so we always love to look our best. The short jumpsuit and plunge is daring but with the long sleeves and Eb pairing it with a long necklace really keeps the look classy and not too much! Eb kept her hair girly with nice big curls and pretty simple makeup, and of course the high heels were a necessity. Full details Below

When it comes to birthdays, people like to go very over the top with glitter and all that which is perfectly fine depending on the occasion. Eb and I were going to a bar and it is quite casual so we decided to keep our outfits quite casual too, we didn't even realise that we kind of colour coordinated :p Eb went with my fav type of skirt at the moment those asymmetrical cut skirts which are super flattering! with a bra let and for me I had brought this fishnet cropped top and then i just paired it with this checkered print skirt we both just wore black heels, and of course pink birthday badges were a must! With our hair we both kept it simple with waves and down, and amped up the makeup with some glitter ;) Full outfit details below...

dress up party

DRESS UP PARTY! 

( MINNESOTA TWIS )


Ebony and I could not wait to get to dress up, we did not want to go dressed like a 'nurse' or a 'police officer' or anything to sexy and all those costumes get done all the time.  It was a last minute decision to go to the dress up themed night so we pulled this look together. 

We have always had these Minnesota Twins jerseys because we thought it was soo cool that there was a baseball team called the Minnesota Twins, they were brought online, however the tops are HUGE on us and didn't really look party appropriate. 

Ebony decided we could work with what we had we rolled up the sleeves on them and pined them into place then tired up the bottoms so that they were still baggy but not down to our knees. To make the look not so boy like I added a simple slip skirt and ebony added these disco like shorts from Dotti. We had the high socks in our wardrobe and just had to add some nice killer heels.

For our hair and makeup we both went just for loose curls with a brown smokey eye.

When dressing up sometimes its good to work with what you've got, you can look just as good going for the 'cute' option. Dress up parties are fun so don't be shy and dress up and have fun!!
