Love is in the Air

Last night I attended my cousin’s engagement party. Despite having had a long and exhausted week, I was excited to get out and party a little bit! So I thought I’d talk you through my outfit and makeup.

My denim jacket is from Jay Jays (you can find it here), my black dress is from Kmart (I couldn’t find a link, but I know it’s still available in my local store) and my red heels are from Target (they were on sale so I don’t know if they’d still be available.

I loved this outfit! The jacket was brand new, having just bought it that day, and the excuse to wear it was great. I felt like the outfit was an appropriate mix of dressy while not being over the top. This outfit also makes me feel super sexy, which is always a plus!

The finished look was simple: flawless coverage, gold eyes and a red lip. The look lasted all night and even though I was eating I only had to reapply my lipstick once.

My perfume of the night was Christina Aguilera’s ‘Royal Desire’. This has been a favourite of mine for a long time!

I had also wanted to paint my nails red, but the polish I bought was more of an orange-y red and I did a shotty job of painting them, so I took it off!

All in all it was a great night. I got to spend time with my family and my gorgeous boyfriend. I’m so excited for my cousin and his fiancee, they are so happy together and I’m such a sucker for a little bit of romance!

And to finish off, here are some oh so sexy, incredibly well lit selfies. Thanks for the read! x
