{Blushing feat. Younique Mascara}

Today we teamed with Younique mascara to create a sweet and glow-y look that can take you from day to night with an outfit and hairstyle to match.

This season we are absolutely obsessed with braids and fishtails. They add a new interest to just about any look and there are so many variations to try. Today we went with a milkmaid style braid that has been gracing the runways all throughout fashion month. The braid is deceivingly easy to create using only bobby pins and clear elastics.

For the makeup, we focused on using pink and rosy tones for a monochromatic look from eye to lip. We wanted to create a bold eye look with a slightly winged liner and our all time favorite mascara, Younique mascara. The mascara works in a three way process, using natural fibers that extend your lashes more than a typical mascara. This mascara is a little pricey but gives a false lash effect that is hard to beat.

For the outfit we wanted to keep it light and feminine. We love the asymmetrical hemline on this white Topshop skirt. For many, white is a fashion faux pas in the winter but for this outfit it definitely works. For the top half we went with a textured crop top from free people and a blush colored leather jacket. The color of the leather jacket flows well with the rest of the outfit but the leather material contrasts the femininity of the makeup and hair.

To accessorize the outfit, we added some brown, suede ankle boots from Steve Madden, a vintage Louis Vuitton crossbody bag, mixed metal rings and some handmade bracelets.
