Makeup, Fashion, and Glamour at the 2012 MET Gala

Tuesday, May 8th, 2012

Last night the Met Gala took place in NYC , the celebs were out and they looked great. Viewers got to watch live stream on Vogue.com all the celebs walking the red carpet for the first time ever. I was back and forth on twitter and the live stream and my TL was crazy, with everyone shouting out their favorite dressed celeb. So here’s a few of my LM fav’s from last night’s MET gala

Chanel Iman looks beautiful wearing Tom Ford on the red carpet, her makeup was supermodel sexy. Her Smokey eye was the best eye makeup look, I saw all night. Chanel wears a smokey eye well, because she has small but round eyes so the makeup look just draws you in to her beautiful face. If you go to the Lipstick Mixtapes YOUTUBE channel I have a get the look Chanel Iman smokey video. #Makeup

My two favorite colored dresses of the night were on January Jones and Solange Knowles. They gave us Bright,Bold and Sexy on the red carpet with these gorgeous yellow dresses. January’s was knee length and she did Red lipstick with her dress! While Solange in the same color went for a nude lipstick, I love the versatility same color dress, different skin tone, and they both are equally stunning ! #Fashion

Anna Wintour holds the #Glamour card. She IS Fashion! Editor in Chief of Vogue Magazine, Anna Wintour looks great anytime she walks onto the red carpet. I mean who wears fur in May? Anna! She is a designers dream when it comes to approval and she has inspired many stylist and fashionistas to live for fashion. I watched her documentary a few years ago and I was inspired by her hard work and determination to make the fashion world her domain and she had done just that!

“Schiaparelli And Prada: Impossible Conversations” Costume Institute Gala

*Ladies kept the makeup minimal and fresh at this years Met Gala. Soft Eye makeup, and rich lip colors…

Burgundy Lips are a in for Spring. Don’t wait for Fall

Strong brows, minimal eye makeup and a nude or deep lip. Both looks are stunning all you see is skin, not makeup!
