Makeup to Room


Hi Everyone! Anne from The City Sage here! I don't often discuss beauty on my blog--even though I'm a total beauty junkie--so I'm super excited to join you today. I love to pair outfits with interiors, and I thought I'd try my hand at some 'Makeup to Room' pairings!



A sun-bronzed glow and violet-shaded eyelids simply scream Moroccan getaway. Think endless summer days with nothing on the agenda but lounging about.



Clean graphic lines and a neutral backdrop hint at an understated urban edge. A pop of unexpected blue livens things up.



Bold swaths of gold create a luxe and dramatic sensibility. But do we think the room could use a hit of hot pink--perhaps a vase of fuchsia flowers?



Glimmering blue and a wash of metallic has me dreaming of a fairy princess tea party--after which I'd enjoy a fairy princess nap in a fairy princess bed!



The makeup equivalent of Scandinavian modern design? Porcelain perfect skin with rosy cheeks and lips: it just doesn't get prettier than this!

Thanks so much to Lisi for inviting me to guest post while she's away. I hope to see you over at my blog The City Sage!
