Makeup / clothing tips?


Question Posted Saturday January 15 2011, 9:51 pm

I have fairly pale skin. It's not porcelain, but kind of pinkish. My eyes are blue and my hair's blond and super long.

I'm very tall and of average weight (leaning towards skinny). I don't know what my body type is, but my torso is very skinny (around 30 inches), by breasts are small, and my hips are wide (~38 in).

What clothes should I stay away from? What type of clothing would compliment my body? When it comes to makeup and clothing, which colors work well with my skin/hair/eyes and which don't?

wild prints are kinda busy but they keep u look lean and not super skinny
if your hips are big stay away from pencil skirts and hip huggers they will only emphasize your waist rather then shape it up
i would say get some bootcut or flare jeans or wear jeans thats stretch in the waist
i wouldnt advise u wear anything too revealing but try also a slim fit jean no skinny jeans

You have a complexion many would die for, so deffinitely learn how to emphasize that :)

Golds and browns really make blue eyes pop. They even have make up palettes specifically for eye colors at the drug store (Almay, covergirl) so you can check those out. Smokey eyes are gorgeous and easy to do. Add black eye liner and great dark mascara, and your eyes will instantly be sexier and the highlight of your face.

Choose warm colors like bronze, plum, sage green etc. and put those on the outer corner and crease of your eye. Always put a 'highlight' color on the inner corner of your eye near the tear duct, this makes your eyes look brighter and more awake. You can use a light pink or white for this.

Bronzer brightens any face, so I always add it. I have pale skin too, so I use this bronzer:

You can use it ALL over your face to add a glow without looking like Snooki.

It sounds like you would look radiant with a peach color blush, to achieve the classic peaches and cream complexion.

In my mind, you might look like Taylor Swift, who has blue eyes, blonde hair, and is tall and thin. You could channel her with your hair and clothing, because she is always on the top of the best dressed lists.

Her waves are her trademark, so try re-creating them. You can use hot rollers, a waver, or just a curling iron. (wraping your hair around the barrel of a curling iron instead of under the clamp gives great loose waves) Putting some product in there like mouse or hair wax will add texture.

It's hard to recomend clothing for you since I don't know your style, but there are some tips I can give.

If you have wide hips, then attract attention to your shoulders to balance your figure. Shirts with puffy/cap sleeves do this, or basically anything that gives volume up top. Stay away from shirts that hit you right at your hips, that just emphasizes them.

If you wear something flowy, use a belt around the smallest part of your waist. This will show how tiny you are and give you a great shape.

If you're tall, show off your long legs in skinny jeans or shorter dresses.

Try checking this out if you want to pick out clothing by color:

I really wouldn't worry too much about the color of the clothing you pick out, the fit is really most important. I find that blondes look really good in pastel/tropical colors like pinks and turquoises, and they also look good in jewel tones and warm fall colors like plums, browns, and golds. Try on clothes in a variety of colors, you are bound to find one that brings out the best in your features and just makes you glow.

Sorry for the long speech, but I hope that helped!

Good Luck!
