My 1st Delco Beautorial: Ooh La La!

Bonjour! Sorry it's been  a while since I last posted!

I was feeling very French inspired today! It could have just been because my sweater says "ooh la la" on it, or the fact that I've been randomly craving french macarons for the past 24 hours.. Who knows!

On my way home from work I made a quick detour to Crêperie Béchamel in Wayne to pick up some macarons! Randomly getting French macarons on a Thursday... Who do I think I am Blair Waldorf? In my defense, it's almost the weekend and I've made it this far in the week without oversleeping for work a single day, so like the saying goes "Treat yoself!"

It just so happens I recently purchased three of the NYX macaron lippies and I've been dying to try them out. This season is all about rocking unusual and bold lip colors so I wanted to try 3 out of the ordinary shades! I bought the colors Rose (Barbie pink), Earl Grey (light blue), and Pistachio (pastel green). So to go along with my French themed Thursday, I decided to test out the lipsticks as I snacked on pink macarons. I love them all, they're so pigmented and such fun cool shades! 

I feel like you have to keep your eye makeup very understated with these bold lip colors. The colors are so bright and highly pigmented so let them steal the show and be the main focus of this look. They're perfect colors for if you're feeling a bit daring this Easter and want a high bright pastel lip color to amp up your easter dress!

To do the simple eye look I used the Lorac Gold Unzipped palette. I put the shade "Uninhibited" all over my lid, highlighted under my brow and the inner corners of my eye with "Unlocked," and put "Unleashed" in the crease.

Then I used my new mascara obsession: Too Faced "Better Than Sex" mascara! This makes my lashes super long and full and it stays all day without fall out or smudges! I'm totes in love! Then I lined my water line with a black eyeliner.

Then here came the fun part... The macaron lippies!!!:

First is the shade Rose:
The matching pink macaron def gave this look a certain Je ne sais quois, don't ya think?;) 

Next is Earl Grey:
Why not get into the outlandish sweeet lip look and throw on a cute donut headband to go with it?!

Last one is Pistachio:
This green was very psychedelic!!! (JK I'm just so ready for summer so I can rock these sick new sunnies) It would be perfect for Saint Patrick's Day or just when you wanna look funky! 

There you have it, I hope you enjoyed my very first Delco Beautorial! It will be the first of many!

Whether you're in Paris, London, New York or just strolling around good ole Delco, don't ever be afraid to take risks and just have fun with your makeup! If you like it, wear it!:)

Thanks for reading! XOXO

Mikey P's private VH1 Dating Naked Premiere Party in Philly!

I attended the premiere party with my friend September 4, for the new VH1 show "Dating Naked," hosted by one of the cast members who's a Philly native, Mikey P! Mikey knew how to throw a banger, at club Roxy/ Bamboo Bar. There was a dance floor, drinks flowing, and different DJ's and performers killing it throughout the night. The guest list included all of his friends and family, well known Philly radio DJ's and a variety of reality stars from VH1 shows. All the guests mingled and the celebrity guests posed on the red carpet as they showed up. Then as 9pm rolled around, everyone gathered around all the televisions set up, to watch Mikey P's big debut on "Dating Naked." After we all watched Mikey choose which girl was his soul mate, by geting to know them um.. "inside and OUT," the music got loud and everyone broke into their best moves on the dance floor! It was really fun to get to party with all the reality stars at this private party! E...

Top 5 Fashion Killers at the 2017 Met Gala

On the first Monday in May, the Met Gala red carpet is where the wildest and most daring fashions are on full display.....except this year is recieving backlash for being a snoozefest! Last night's Met Gala was celebrating the opening of the Costume Institute’s exhibition, “Rei Kawakubo/Comme des Garçons: Art of the In-Between.” Mostly all of the celebrities who took the carpet decided to go more simple and elegant, which was not the point of this red carpet!? I don't mean get too crazy with your look, like holding your cut off dreads in your hand as an accessory... cough cough... ... but at least take a little more risk with your outfit. Most people looked more Oscars worthy than Met.  With the theme being Comme des Garçons, if you're going to go simple, at least have some decency and slap a little heart with eyes somewhere on your outfit!😉 Thankfully there were a few fashion risk takers who dressed according to theme and killed the red carpet, l...

Girls Night Out at Philly Fashion Week 2017!

Friday night, after dining on gourmet cuisine at Fine Palate, my mom, sister, and I attended the Runway I fashion show for Philly Fashion Week! PFW is always a super fun event, where all of the chicest and over the top fashionistas in the city, all meet up in one place. Friday night's show took place at beautiful Dilworth Park in the heart of Philadelphia. The list of talented designers goes on and on, one design more gorgeous than the next. Hot trends featured for this season were preppy mini skirts, sheer tops, sailor's hats, cold-shoulder blouses, and high- waisted trousers for women. Bold prints were showcased for men, from blazers to pants.  I definitely left the show feeling inspired and wanting to go on a major shopping spree to revamp my entire wardrobe with Fall's hottest trends! All I need is the fall weather to come along one of these days, so I can finally pair stylish trousers and a bold red lip for a night out on the town. ...
