Who doesn't love a good LBD ? I know I do. So when the invite for the KCFW SS'16 Day 2 came with a request to wear black, I knew I had to bring out my flirty LBD.
Kansas City Fashion Week SS'16 moved the runways for Day 2. The signature shows at Union Station began with a special message. To spread awareness for Melanoma, Kansas City fashion week management had partnered with Fair and Fashionable. From the guests wearing Black to taking a pledge to go tanker, it was all about celebrating your natural skin. According to the Mayo Clinic, 2,00,000 to 3,00,000 people are diagnosed with Skin cancer every year.
I had picked up a flirty skater LBD which seemed perfect for the occasion. I wanted to pair Pinks and Blacks for the night. Thats a combination which is very close to my heart. Two of my all time favorite colors, brought together to glam up things. For my accessories, I had my trusty bag from Coach which had almost 50 Shades of Pink in it.
To bling up the outfit, I dished out Kendra Scott Rayne Necklace in Rose Gold and Magenta. Paired it with my Kendra Scott Double Ring in Bronze Drusy . Some old Gold Filigree Earrings and my Gun Metal Citizen Eco Drive Watch.
For my shoes, I wanted something similar to my Bag. Pink, Flirty, prints all thrown together, with just the perfect amount of heels for the night. These Satin Floral Heels from Touch of Nina - Off Broadway Shoes
Yes, I played up the Pinks in my Make up too. Pink Eye shadow can be tricky. If not done well, it can give an impression that your eyes are bruised. I started off with my basic base of Clinique Beyond Perfecting Skin Foundation in Golden Neutral, MAC ProlongWear Concealer in NW 20 , MAC Mineralize Skinfinish Natural in Medium and Urban Decay Primer Potion in Original .
Then for my eyes, I used MAC EyeShadow in Swish MAC Eyeshadow in Swish from the inner corner to the middle. Then I used MAC Eye Shadow in Nocturnelle from the middle to the outer corner. Then I used the cold Naked from Urban Decay Naked 1 as a transition color in my crease. Its almost the same color s my natural skin tone. MAC Fluidline in Blacktrack and Maybelline Volum Express The Falsies Waterproof Mascara to complete the eyes. NARS Orgasm Blush and MAC Kelly Yum Yum lipstick. I know the lipstick is a limited edition one, but you could also use MAC Candy Yum Yum .
