Get the Look: Fabulous Steel Blue Eyes

I saw this photo of Anne Hathaway in August's InStyle & nearly fainted. Her steel blue shadow is exactly what I want to be wearing come Fall, to accompany a long grey cashmere sweater, black leather belt, black leggings and my imaginary Balmain black zippered booties. {I threw in a photo of them for drooling purposes.}


Le sigh...OK ladies, back to the makeup.
This look is guaranteed to make your eyes pop, no matter what color you have. Just look at what it does for Anne's brown stunners. Gorg!


Shopping List
{suggestions by Genevieve Herr, InStyle}:

Eye Shadow:
NARS Duo Eyeshadow, $32, Sephora, SAKS
{Seen above: so rich in pigment, it will last forever & never disappoint}

Mascara:
1. First apply a rich black shade, my favorite being DIOR, Diorshow {you probably know that I am a fanatic for this mascara by now!}

2. Then apply your favorite blue-ish mascara just to the TIPS of the lashes. Herr suggests Lancome Definicils in Navy. {I suggest it too!}

If you try the look, take some pics & send them to me! I would love to see your gorgeous faces all dolled up!

Balmain boots are available for purchase at Net-a-porter for only $1,975

Awesome awesome!!!!!!

"only $1,975"...I've often considered asking net-a-porter if they will take a payment plan. But I don't think it's like HSN...

Someday... when I have a job and tons and tons of money, I think I will just pay you to come and do my make up everyday since I am an idiot with this stuff.

Ohhhhhhh, I love that look. If only I wasn't so challenged when it comes to hair and makeup. Boo.

I think I have to try this since my eyes are almost the same shade as her even though my hair is wilder and darker. thoughts?

Hi there :)
thanks so much for your lovely comment on my blog - so I was able to find yours - woooow! Your taste is terrific!!
Will add you to my blog roll!
The colors for eye makeup are fantastic, I'm using almost the same - my eyes are brown like Anne's.
And, well... You've already noticed my weakness for Balmain booties?...
xoxo, Sofie
