Hi all!

Hopefully my fiance will be flying in this Friday and I plan on wearing a new dress that I got to the airport. I've been staring at it for two days now and can't decide on what kind of makeup to do. So I'm looking for suggestions!

Tried to find a picture online but no luck (even though it was from Macy's) so I'll try to describe it: It's a sundress, sort of a thin linen material. The base color is black (not super dark, slightly sheer) and it has a mosaic like pattern all over it with flowing type clusters of purple, gold, teal, and like a bronzey browney/taupe/silver. I haven't decided on shoes yet but I have these darker silver pumps that look slightly tarnished that I may wear.

Any suggestions welcome! I would prefer to do a nude or light pink lip as I'm (obviously) going to be kissing him hello a lot

Maybe I'll try to post a picture of the fabric later.

Since the dress has a mixture of gold/bronze and silver, I would do Naked Lunch on lid and highlight, Trax on crease with FIG. 1 on the outer V and blended into crease for more depth. For blush I would use Fleur Power and for lips I would do Angel l/s with with Ample Pink l/g.

If your not familiar with MAC, here is a description of everything I mentioned so you can recreate the look with what you already have. HTH!

EYES
Naked Lunch (Lid/Highlight)- minimal pink with shimmer
Trax (Crease)- burgundy- plum with shimmer
Fig 1. (Outer V/Blended into Crease)- eggplant purple

FACE
Fleur Power- soft bright pinkish purple

LIPS
Angel Lipstick- soft pink
Ample Pink Plushglass- full, soft, rose
