All things sweet and girlie

Occasionally, I wear the sweet little frocks and do the girlie stuffs, but I've never been the really girlie sort. This romantic look brought sweetness and girlie-ness to a whole new level for me. Look at all the pinks on my face, the soft romantic curls and my gawd, there are even roses in my hair! The photoshoot with hubby was hilarious, with me attempting to give some soft gazes but end up looking sleepy and totally unconvincing. So that's why I'm taking forever to put together this post because these photos are raising my goosebumps and I need time to convince myself to publish these photos on the world wide web. lol.
Alright, back to more serious stuff. Other than the fact that I'm not used to seeing myself all sweet and feminine, I like how the different shades of pink on my eyes, cheeks and lips harmonize. Honestly, I'm tempted to try this makeup again using a stronger pink on the eyes and cheeks just to see if tipping the balance can give more fashionable look. Pink shadows are a little tricky since they can make our features look swollen and I tried to avoid that by blending in a little darker pink eyeshadow at the outer edge of the socket line.


A final tip for anyone who like to wear this look out, go easy on the pink eyeshadows and build up colour slowly. Show us photos if you try this!

  10. i think you look great! i think the pink is subtle enough to transition into. to be honest, i'm not into the whole 'super girly' look either. I always like to mix it up whether it's with clothes or makeup. I need to go for darker colors on my eyes usually. I love your hairstyle here too; very pretty!
