the beauty of appearance is that it can be reinvented day to day, or with every diva quick change. fashion and make-up allow us to be different characters, personas or simply the perfect version of ourselves, as seen by ourselves in the instant we choose our lipstick shade or our shoes. this is how I pay homage to not only the beauty that i create as a make-up artist but that others have created and I have enjoyed.

Brunette Love

I’ll start off by saying I’ve been blonde.  In fact, if you ever saw me as a blonde I was the blondest brown kid you would have EVER seen (thank you Zoe from Bumble and Bumble).  But this morning after I wiped the crust from my eye and starred at myself in the bathroom mirror, I thought DAMN I am a sexy brunette!  So I decided to pay a lil homage to brunettes in a old Hollywood glamour sort of way.  Enjoy!

gorgeous.
