Back to Fall Styling: Two Tone Jeans and Urban Boots

 Jacket: thrifted | Shirt: TJ Maxx | Jeans: Aeropostale | Brooch: vintage | Boots: Matisse | Sunglasses:  Guess | Hair:  by Jana 

My girl Jana is in town and besides being a top hairstylist {check out the amazing relaxed, curls she gave me}, she can take a mean photograph. She's my artist soul sister and whenever we get together, there are many adventures made. My plan is to force convince her to move here so that we can take NYC by a storm. She has a wandering heart, so what better place to be than the city that never sleeps? 

These boots are the comfiest I have ever worn and you can bet they will mold to my feet this season. As much as I love fall being here, I can't ever stop wearing a bold lip color. It helps when I get very pale {not complaining!} and on the days the sun doesn't shine. Lesson here: bold lips work all year.

Are you ready for fall?

Thrift Steal: Betsey Johnson Plaid Jacket

Found this jazzy Betsey Johnson plaid jacket at Beacon's Closet yesterday and felt the grand need to show it off. The tailoring on this thing is what caught my eye at first. Annnd I have really wanted a tartan jacket in this pattern. I'm dancing with glee!! And the Nine West boots I'm sporting I just purchased for 50% off. This is my kind of week!

Also check out my mascara in the last shot; I'm playing with techniques using my Maybelline blue mascara.

                           

I pulled a Twiggy/60s era design with this. Rather than run my mascara wand over all the bottom lashes,
I held it vertically and used the end to rub onto four distinct sets of hair.

They did this on Twiggy except with liner and it was used on the skin under her lashes. 

I like to do this when going for a less dramatic look. 

Is this a technique you would try?

Later gater,
