Fresh & Polished Look For Work-By Lisa Eldridge



While I was searching make up tutorial on YouTube for my upcoming interviews, I found this nice simple and quick look for work from one of my favorite make up artist: Lisa Eldridge.


Workwear (Interview wear)

Recently I'm switching my job and every time when I hung up the phone for interview the First thing in my mind is "what should I wear??!" Most of us know how to dress properly for work or interview, but sometimes we all have those blank moment when we over stressed or facing too many clothes in the closet.

While I was preparing my interview outfits, I went to some designer website to look for some inspiration from them. Here are some nice pieces I found and I liked most.

They all can be great outfit for work or interview by changing accessories to briefcase or tote.



Manicure+Pedicure

I LOVE doing Manicure and Pedicure~ Most of the time I enjoy doing my own nails, taking care of myself, changing color depend on my mood and outfits..
but once a while, I'd spoil myself a little bit to go to salon let professional people taking care of me... Enjoy the warm spa salt soaking my feet, massage seat and nice little conversation with those nice Vietnamese ladies in the salon~

OPI, Essie, CND, Orly, Color Club are most popular brands these days and I always have hard time to pick once there are so many of them in front of me.. this time I brought my favorite color: Rough Noir and Ballerina from Chanel~~

Party Wear #1: Mini Dress

Happy Friday every one! Winter is almost finish, we can all feel the weather is getting warmer and warmer. I'm sure party people start to plan what to wear for tonight and Saturday night. Here's I'm showing some way to dress for party. No matter you are Glamorous goddess, Sexy Bombshell, Elegant Ladylike or Sassy Edgy Chics. Let's go with the basic and play with accessories~

For Mini Dress, they have very playful attitude. Women who wear them simply showing off their confidence, but have to be careful with the color, fabric and cut. Otherwise, it would be accidentally put yourself into the Slutty look. (You know how you look attract different type of people come close to you and you don't want that happen, right?)

Let's go with basic color groups: Red, Neutral and LBD! Remember to be IN BRIEF.

RED: If you want to draw attention, use red. It is often where the eye looks first. Red is the color of energy. It's associated with movement and excitement. People surrounded by red find their heart beating a little faster and often report feeling a bit out of breath.
This ravishing red flared bandage dress create incomparable curves for your most events.
To complete this party-perfect look with a printed or a shoe matching color clutch.
A bold red stretch jersey dress is the perfect way to showcase the elegance.

Just simply add a printed clutch and metallic sandals or go black with clutch and heels to complete the look.


Neutral: such as beige, ivory, taupe, black, gray, and white. They are just simply goes with any color. Most designers like to use light neutral or nude color to create romantic ladylike feminine touch. They are not as "show off" as Bright colors do, but they are easy to transform a dress from a work place to party place.
This Cream petal-inspired crepe dress is a chic and feminine choice for the party season.
Complete the outfit with bejeweled heels and a dark clutch.
This forest-green jersey dress with a ruched wrap skirt defines cool classics with a glamorous twist.

A silver bracelets and black tight will offset this sleek finish. 


This gold sequin-embellished dress is your ticket to glamour celebrity style.
Be sure with all-black extras for maximum impact.

LBD-Little Black Dress:
LBD is  essential for a woman's woredrobe. They are intended to be long-lasting, versatile, affordable, accessible to the widest market possible and easy to match with any accessories. An elegant black dress that can be dressed up or down depending on the occasion: for example, worn with a jacket and pumps for daytime business wear or with more ornate jewelry and accessories for evening.
