Trying Not To Try

Why is it when you are trying not to look like you are trying too hard with your makeup or outfit, it takes you twice as long than usual? Trying not to look like you are trying can be a nightmare of its own. 

My go-to makeup look is usually a medium to full coverage base for those days when your skin hates you. A contoured face and big shades to cover my eye bags. For the days when statement sunglasses won't cut it, I usually go for a 'natural" look. A flawless dewy base, a light contour and highlight with perfect brows and a nude lip, not forgetting lashings of mascara and a classic feline flick. 

Outfits are a whole other story. My best piece of advice is to keep it simple. If you feel comfortable, then you'll look comfortable. If you're dressing to impress, than nothing looks sexier than looking like yourself. I know it sounds like a cliche, but I promise it's true. 

Before you perfect the art of effortless style, you need to figure out your own style. Think about shape. The key to great style is dressing to fit to your shape not size. Size is a number that you can change. Your shape is your secret weapon, use it to your advantage.
