Effortlessly Chic Holiday Looks that are Sure to Make a Lasting Impression!

The holiday season is quickly approaching and you know what that means?!
 
HOLIDAY PARTIES!!
 
More than likely, you will be attending at least one or two within these next few weeks so naturally you'll want to look your best! A fresh hairstyle and new dress can work wonders, but considering the amount of face time you'll be spending with people, your makeup will pull your entire look together!    
 
Whether you're heading to a company event or an intimate gathering with friends/family, I'll show you a couple of effortlessly chic looks that will make a lasting impression this holiday season.
 

This very elegant and timeless look can be created with your favorite red lipstick, a light shimmer eye shadow and simple top knot. This look would be perfection paired with the Samantha Dress from NBG!
 
 
Plum lip shades are all the rage this fall and holiday season! To achieve this dramatic, yet simple look, apply your plum shade of choice to lips, baby pink shadow to the lids and then add a nice thin application of either black or brown eye liner.
 
 
This look would pair quite nicely with the NBG Floral & Lace Dress!
 
 
This next holiday look is all about the eyes! Use a nice neutral shadow, such as a light bronze or really any natural shade. Add some black cake liner all around the eyes, nude pink cheeks and lips for the win! This look is perfect for all of you bold holiday dress wearers out there as it won't make you look too over the top and won't take away from your focal point, your DRESS!
 
 
This classic look would be absolutely perfect for those of you who were able to snag the now sold out Gold, Sequin Skirt from NBG!  
 
Now, for the look that I'll be rocking this holiday season!
 
 
I purchased the STUNNING Sequined Mini Dress - $42  to wear on NYE. With its' multitude of colors and fabrics such as hot pink, light blue, white, black, gold, gray, and leather...this one took a bit of pondering to decide on the right makeup scheme to pair with it. I decided to do baby pink lips and cheeks and the eye that you can never go wrong with, the smoky! Then, tossed my hair up in a top knot for a more refined look.


 
 
  Any of these effortlessly chic looks are sure to make a lasting impression at your upcoming holiday party! Which one is your favorite?
