If you are looking to elevate your look this season, I would say choose one or five of the following items, the easiest being #5.
- Something Metallic
- A Plaid Blazer
- Something with a Pop of Color
- A New Pair of Sunnies
- A New Shade of Lipstick
And when I need a new shade of lippy, I go to the experts at the beauty counter. Last week I popped into the Dior Counter at the Nordstrom Hillsdale Store to preview and learn about their upcoming Beauty Trend Event, which runs 10/21-10/27.
Surrounded by all things beautiful, it was a treat to take time out from my busy schedule to be pampered and learn tips and tricks for creating a fresh look with Dior’s new fall colors, from my pal and Dior Business Manager, Lissette Moreno. Like most of you, my schedule can get a little crazy, so when Lissette asked what I wanted to focus on, I asked her to teach me how to go from a daytime natural look to an evening cocktail party, without having to make a stop at home.
With the help of Dior experts, Lissette and Be Philavong, I was given a completely new look using THIS eye Palette – one that can take me day to night…and we caught it step-by-step on video to share!
