I had the pleasure of doing Kim's makeup last October for her wedding at the Hilton Sandestin. It was just one of those perfect days! My friend, the ever-talented (and recently engaged!) Ashley Livingston took these photos and gave them to me months ago. Sorry I'm just now posting them, but it was so fun and I loved hanging out with Kim and her bridesmaids for the afternoon. They were so sweet and looked so pretty!

Pretty.Sweet Copycat: Jessica Biel
Don't we all wish we looked a little like Jessica Biel? If we can't have her famous curves, I guess we can settle for trying out her fresh-faced beauty look as the next best thing. Right? It seems like Jessica usually goes for the understated, natural beauty look, but I love this brighter, more colorful look she wore to the Summit on the Summit:Kilimanjaro premiere. Fabulous for spring and summer!
Here's what I used to get the look:
- Loreal Infallible foundation #607 mixed with #610
- NARS blush in Outlaw
- Cargo water resistant bronzer in Golden Bronze
- Eyelash curler
- Too Faced eyebrow pencil in Brow-nie
- Stila eyeshadow in Sparkle (above the crease)
- Urban Decay eyeshadow in Last Call (above the upper lashes and below the bottom lashes)
- Sugar Cosmetics Sweet Cheeks Baked Blush Duo in Gingerbread (used as eyeshadow)
- Stila Smudge Pot eyeliner in Black
- Maybelline Volum Express Turbo waterproof mascara in Very Black
- VS Makeup Perfect Lipstick in Stiletto (blotted and topped with chapstick)

Daytime Casual
Light makeup is clean, casual and perfect for everyday looks. It's for the girl who doesn't want to go bare-faced but doesn't want to look like she's headed to a nightclub at 10 AM. The trick is to play with softer eye makeup, stick with neutral colors, and keep the lips light.

Shannon {Wedding}
My best friend, college roommate and fellow Friends lover Shannon got married in October at the TPC Sawgrass in Ponte Vedra Beach, FL. It was a spectacular wedding from start to finish and I'm not just saying that because I was the maid of honor. Or because I did the makeup. It was beautiful and romantic and all the things a wedding should be. I'm so excited for Shanny & Doug and I know they will be enjoying marital bliss for a long, long time. Doesn't she look beautiful? That Doug is one lucky guy!
Such a fun wedding party! (I'm the second green girl from left.)They even had karaoke at the reception! Congratulations Shannon & Doug! I'm so happy for you!

Pretty.Sweet Copycat: Fergie
I had a class in college where the professor tried to remember us by pairing each student with a celebrity we resembled, even just a little bit. I didn't think I had a celebrity look-a-like, but from that class I got the most comparisons to Fergie. It was either her, Shania Twain or Kelly Kapowski from Saved by the Bell. Let's go with Fergie for now.
I thought she looked G-L-A-M-O-R-O-U-S at the Golden Globes with understated but pretty makeup. Here's my copycat version:
And here's what I used to get the look:

Eyeliner to Match Your Eyes
Try a fresh look in liner on your next makeup paint job and match your eyeliner to your eye color. It really gives your eyes an extra pop! Adding the same shade around your lids gives the illusion of bigger and brighter eyes. It works for girls with every eye color, too!
