It's All In The Eyes

Tell me ladies, what's your eye beauty routine? Namely, what do you do with your bottom lid and lashes?

Do you go full out eyeliner, eyeshadow on the bottom and mega mascara like these bombshells?
 

Do you wear liner but no mascara or vice versa like these pretty young things?
 

Or are you more natural like these beauties?


I tend to switch my look up depending on where I'm going and what I'm doing. Before, I never used to wear mascara on my bottom lashes- just liner or nothing at all, but this year I've started putting mascara on the bottom lashes regardless of whether or not I'm wearing liner. It can kind of be a pain because I have long lashes and the tips will get mascara onto my cheeks and I have to clean it up, but I like the overall look it gives. I feel more "done" when I wear mascara or liner on the bottom. A naked bottom eye can always be appreciated though in my book and I still rock it from time to time.

High-Low Hems Coming Back?

My favorite dress I wore to a dance in highschool was for my senior Homecoming, it was a halter neckline and a high-low hem (I wore a few other dresses with the same hemline as well) that was a mixed blue and black print with glitter tiger stripes (our mascot was a tiger so I thought it was fitting). That sounds SO ugly now, but in 2001 it was super hip. High-low hems were in style another year, but I haven't seen them since.


Then low and behold, in one week two Hollywood hotties busted them out for the red carpet:





January Jones was one of my Best Dressed at the Emmys, in fact her dress was in my top 5. Last night, Jessica Alba wore a high-low hem to the Venice Film Festival premiere of Machete. 


I have a feeling that the high-low hems are going to be popping up everywhere! I think it's definitely a way to mix it up and you get the benefits of both a mini dress and a long one. This hemline may even be considered more versatile because it can work for both cocktail and formal attire. I'm not sure how I feel about them though since I've worn the trend before.


Do you ever feel that once you've worn a style, it's a little weird to where it again a few years later?


It's kind of like a mullet, except it's party in the front and business in the back.

What's your thoughts?? Will you bust out your old party dresses? Are you going to hunt for a high-low hemline for the fall?

Best & Worst Dressed at the Emmys 2010

The Emmy's this year did not disappoint! At least no on the red carpet anyways!

Here are my best dressed in no particular order because I couldn't pick just one:

Glittering in gold (yellow for Sofia)- Heather Morris was a s-t-u-n-n-e-r in this gold number! Best outfit I've ever seen her wear! I love all her look, the dress, her glamorous hair, red lipstick and black accessories. I'm def going to remember this for my NYE dress.  Nina Dobrev was beautiful in her Grecian style dress. Her dangly earrings and updo were the perfect choice. Claire Danes was gorgeous in her shimmer number, her make-up perfect and her low key hair also looked amazing. With Sofia Vergara it was love at first sight. First she's wearing my fave color (yellow), the sparkle down the center really accentuated her curves, and her hair made me super jealous. This look is much better than her homecoming look at the SAG awards (see here).

Jewel tones- January Jones looked aaaamazing in this bright blue number. I know she got a lot of slack and critics are still complaining, but I thought the color and creative cut worked for her. The color really complimented her skin, hair and eyes. Although, I think a better hair do would have been a better choice. Emily Deschanel was charming in purple, I love both the style and color of the dress. Kyra Sedgwick's dress was just lovely! I loved how she paired it with loose waves and neutral colored jewelry.

Neutrals- Amber Riley was marvelous in a white Grecian style dress. Her jewelry choices impeccable and matched well with her dress. I loved her updo as well. Great choice for the Emmy's and for her curves. Jennifer Carpenter's dress really accentuated her silhouette and her hair pulled to the opposite corner was gorgeous! Heidi Klum looked stunning in a short number, standing out across all of the long dresses. My favorite part of her look is her shoes! Lea Michele looked gorgeous as always! Her dress and jewelry were stunning, but I'm indifferent about her hair. Looks to me like it should have been more curled or straighter.

 

Best dressed male goes to Ryan Kwantan for going outside of the black tuxedo box. He looked so hunky with a bit of scruff in his navy blue and black plaid suit and maroon tie. Swoon.

Now on to my worst dressed;

 

Naya Rivera, what were you thinking? All of this is a NO. Were you trying to emulate devil horns with your hair?

Keri Russel, you do look fab, but far too casual for the Emmy's.

PS are her and Naya wearing the same shoes?

Stephanie Pratt- You look great, but this was a formal affair.

What do you think? Agree disagree? Who were your faves?
