Birthday FOTD & OOTD

This entry is all about the look and outfit I wore on my birthday a couple of days ago. For more about the celebration, please click here.

I was just experimenting blindly and took my own sweet time to get ready and I was very happy with the outcome. A soft and mellow smokey look with purple and shimmery silver to create slight sparkles when the lights hit. The key to this look is blend, blend and blend!
