If you are looking for inspiration, look no further as we have it covered from makeup looks to outfits that will leave you ready for the night of the year. This will be sure to leave you in ultimate style.
The Ultimate Red Lipstick
Who doesn’t love a classic red lipstick? Mac’s favorite Ruby Woo has become a staple and firm favorite for women of color and it looks sensational on dark skin hues. Red lipstick tends to compliment any outfit and adds a touch of glam. Every girl needs the perfect red lipstick to jazz up an outfit and this is the best time for it! Classic and flattering you cannot go wrong.
Sequins and more sequins
Yes, it is the season for sequins, sequins are perfect for the holiday season. It is also one of the biggest trends for spring 2020 on runways, so why not start now? Sequins are all the rage now. If you are not feeling too convinced or you feel a full-on sequin dress may be out of your comfort zone or even overkill. Why not opt for a simple sequin top or skirt with a smart-looking blazer to add a touch of pizzazz. Although an amazing sequin dress is perfect for this time of year.
Dazzle with NYX ‘Born to Glow Illuminating powder’
We all love that bronzed look, where we looked like we’ve stepped off a plane from an exotic holiday. The harsh and adverse winter season tends to strip off every ounce of moisture from our delicate skin which at times can leave our skin looking dry or haggard. The new NYX Born to Glow illuminating powder can be used as the ultimate highlighter to accentuate your features. Designed to flatter all skin tones this is perfect for New Year’s Eve. A must-have!
Classic Clutch Bag
Let your clutch bag do all the talking this year, the ultimate clutch bag can make a statement when you are wearing a minimalistic outfit. The clutch is essential for a night out however we know at times it can be inconvenient as we can’t take all our beloved items on a night out however a great clutch bag can you leave you forgetting that you left your favorite lipstick at home or maybe not! A classic or vintage looks amazing and can make your outfit look like a ten.
Tuxedo Dress
Blazer dresses were everywhere and one of 2019’s biggest trends from catwalks to fashion shows and we were loving them! Tuxedo dresses are very chic whether fitted or not, long or short they look great. Celebrities were certainly embracing them and over the years it has shifted from being an androgynous look to looking good on all. Why not opt for one this New Year’s Eve?
Rock that Afro
My ultimate favorite look for an evening, as we are aware more women of color are reverting back to their natural hair. We firmly believe this isn’t a trend although there has been an increase of women expressing and showcasing their natural tresses. The evolution of natural hair has been incredible from seeing it on billboards to celebrities showing it off on the red carpet, gone are the days where the natural state was considered as ‘unruly or nappy’. A teased-out afro is jaw-dropping, so why not opt for your natural mane this year?
Thanks for reading.
