Taylor Swiftin' it up | Black floppy hats & red lips with MAC, YSL & Revlon

Now, I have never been the type to wear red lipstick, even though I have an abundance of them. I used to think that red lips were just... too sexy for me. But damn it, something just feels so right when I put on my black floppy hat and wear it with red lipstick. 

Maybe it's the Taylor Swift fan girl in me, who knows. (Yes, might as well confess, guys, I love her. And thanks to the internet, I now sing and bleat like a goat to I Knew You Were Trouble.)

I have been loving wearing these three red lipsticks in the past couple of weeks. (Well, okay, the Revlon isn't technically a lipstick...)

Bad Beauty Beginnings | MAC Sea & Sky mineralize eye shadow + a swatch!

Thought it would be funny to look back on my hilarious and horrible histories with make up. So here is series! Reminisce with me as I'm sure we've all been there. (Or I could be the only noob who did these mistakes...)

In the three years that I've worn make up, it was only in the last two of them that I realised, yes, there really is a time and place for certain colours.

One of my mistakes when I was younger and naive when it came to make up involved MAC Sea & Sky mineralize eyeshadow.

When I saw it at my neareast MAC counter, I was mesmerized by its' marbled goodness and thought, hellz yeah, I need this in my life. I totally didn't have a blue eyeshadow, so it was a must.

You can only imagine my glee when I brought it home. I was so excited that I wore it the next day when I went to work. Back then, I worked at a very traditional menswear retail store.
