Over the Top, but I'm Still Haute

Over the Top, but I'm Still Haute

An entry for Celly's Haute Couture contest.

I decided to extend the makeup on the inner corner of my eyes cause I loved it when I did it for my Arabian eyes look. It's a bit dramatic & not something I do everyday, so I thought I'd do that.

& then I realized that the tape shows through the green feathers, so I took them off...



Here's how it looks without the feathers. I was in love with the makeup & didn't wanna take it off (which is why there are tons of pics too, hehe). If only I had a party or something to go to cause I wanted to wear this look somewhere outside so bad. You know how some people sport fuchsia lips? I couldn't do a bold lip like that, but I def wanted to do this instead. Obviously I'd get a few too many looks, but damn it looked haute! ;)

Inspirations
L: Dior model
R: Model from Barbie's 50th anniversary show in NYC

I found the Dior model's picture first & knew I had to do that look right away cause not only do I love purple eye shadows, but I had a lot of pink & purple feathers. In case you're wondering why I have coloured feathers around my house, it's cause my mum used to be a kindergarten teacher in the U.A.E & they used it at school for crafts or something so I got some :)
