Hey Guys!
This past weekend I celebrated my husband's birthday. I recently picked up a few new articles of clothing and accessories and couldn't wait to wear them for the first time! I purchased the taupe and black peplum dress from Forever 21. It is still available online, in select sizes, on the Canadian website, here. The dress is really affordable and retails for $21.80 and is both sexy and elegant at the same time. I paired the dress with coordinating black and gold accessories. Many of you have already seen my OOTD video on my YouTube channel, but for those of you who have not, I will include it in this post as well. I was also asked to give a breakdown of my makeup. Luckily, I took a bunch of closeups to show you the look I wore out to dinner. I absolutely LOVE how my makeup turned out this particular day and will be doing a tutorial for it in the coming weeks, as many of you also liked the look.

I know my makeup probably looks the same in a lot of my FOTDs because I LOVEEEE to use neutral colours, but this makeup turned out better than most looks I've done in the past BECAUSE I used pigments. Currently I'm OBSESSED with MAC Pigments and am waiting on a huge sample order to come in the mail so I can work with them more. Pigments are very easy to blend and really stand out versus your ordinary eyeshadow. I can't wait to do more looks with pigments! I am also using and LOVING the new Revlon Colorstay Whipped Foundation. I will have a full review on it soon!
