Lucia in that graduation dress

 

Hey guys, long time no post on my sister’s graduation pictures, my crazy camera has been acting out.

Anyways here are the pictures we took after her graduation.

Well first the dress is from Free People -Desert Rose Corset Dress. However we were lucky enough to find it at  TJMaxx. How fortunate are we! Well the dress is too beautiful. However, it does not flatter some with a tummy. My sister noticed that it did add a lot, a lot of volume in the tummy area, even the built in corset did not help.  But it is a beautiful dress to say the least. As for the shoes I decided for her to search for a wedge in a light pink (pastel) color because it just suits the color of the dress. These are patent light pink wedges. They are super comfy says my sister easy to walk in like, any other wedge.

[As for makeup we just used (Cargo Essential Palette - 4 – Bronze), $32 at Ulta.com]Cannot express how beautiful this palette is! We used the lid color which is a super gold color! It is more of copper/gold color, I love it! And we also used the crease natural color to tone down the shimmer. This Cargo palette is extremely pigmented. The shadow palette has different texture as for the copper/gold shadow it is a more dewy and as for the crease natural eye shadow is more of a solid eye shadow and you have to apply twice at the very least to get the color but as for the rest of the palette they are EXTREMELY PIGMENTED, you barely touch the shadow boom you have a lot of shadow on your shadow brush. Next, [ (CK Calvin Klein blush Spare, Shiver, & Foolish), $5 at Ross stores] This was another amazing find only $5 what a steal!  We used the Shiver color it is also supreme pigmented! We barely swiped it on her cheeks. This blush is an orangey/tanned blush. An amazing blush collection, have not seen this collection at Ross again but stay on the look out! We do not use the Spare and foolish color because it has a purple/mauve tone but we just need to find the right foundation for it. [Lastly we used a concealer (Revlon Blemish Concealer, $10 at Wal-Mart]. I am not a fan of drug store concealers or foundations. This was a chalky on my sisters skin, I have to say. But she likes it so we try it out, not the best results but not the worst. You be the judge.

(My sister also lost the receipts, again we will try to keep the price exact as we can)
