Fall style series: Madison X Blushington
Fall has always been our favorite season and as we greet the arrival of the colder months, we must also revitalise our wardrobes for a whole new academic year. Whatever goals you have set yourself this year – whether that is getting a First in your degree, scoring that interview, finding yourself a dream internship, or landing your dream man – nothing can boost your confidence and create that positive mind-set better than a whole new look. It’s time to buckle down and get through the goals you’ve set for the year.
There is no doubt that the summer ran at a casual, laid-back pace and as much as we’d love to be sipping on sangria while wearing a cute bikini, it’s time for things to get more serious – the clothes too. So, trade in your floral shorts and well-worn tees for suits, plaid shirts and tailored coats.
Madison and Blushington have concocted a quick and simple guide to rejuvenating your closet and finding a whole new look. See the entire confection below for expert to-do’s and tips to looking good and feeling incredible for the rest of the year!
MADISON STYLE TIPS
Tip 1: Start your outfit’s foundation with a Alexander Wang tee and a statement pair of bottoms.
Tip 2: Nothing say ‘school spirit’ more than a varsity letterman jacket – a very relevant trend this fall!
Tip 3: Finish the look with a cool and versatile bootie, and a stylish yet functional shoulder/messenger bag.
BLUSHINGTON MAKE-UP TIPS
Tip 1: Use a sheer illuminating tinted moisture, this will give you coverage for school without looking too dramatic & overdone.
Tip 2: Add a little pop of color to the cheek, giving you a fresh face rosy color.
Tip 3: Finish the look off with one or two coats of mascara and lipgloss (choose a color similar to the one used on your cheek!)
LOOK NO. 2 – EVERYDAY ATTIRE
MADISON STYLE TIPS
Tip 1: Denim is an amazing transitional piece to have in your wardrobe. This Rag & Bone denim jacket with hoodie is just what your closet needs for fall. This number can be paired with a super casual striped top, and a camouflage bottom gives that ‘everyday’ look some spunk!¨’
Tip 2: Sneakers are all the rage right now, what better way to tie the entire look with some Golden Goose sneakers. Sure to be a crowd fave, these glittered number is quite versatile and very comfortable.
Tip 3: Finish the entire look with a cool tote – just like the Anine Bing style pictured above!
BLUSHINGTON MAKE-UP TIPS
Tip 1: Use a lighter mousse foundation so you natural skin can show through, add a bit of bronzer for some additional color and a coral pink cheek.
Tip 2: For everyday eyes, make sure you stick to taupe colors, and add a little shimmer in the inner corners of your eyes. Opt for a natural color liner, brown or light gray, and make the eyes pop with a few coats of mascara.
Tip 3: Finish off the look with an added coral lip, matching the color used on your cheek.
LOOK NO. 3 – DATE NIGHT
MADISON STYLE TIPS
Tip 1: Go for the gold and rock a body conscious dress the exudes style and sex appeal. This houndstooth number from Torn by Ronny Kobo is in tune with fall’s fashion trends and a true showstopper.
Tip 2: Pair this look with a statement sling-back, this one is by Valentino! Voila!
BLUSHINGTON MAKE-UP TIPS
Tip 1: For your eyes stick with neutral colors. This is the time to amp it up that dark brown all-over eye shadow by making it more of a smokey sultry look.
Tip 2: Line your water line with a black liner to help to make your eyes pop, giving your eye a sexier nighttime look.
Tip 3: Stick to a neutral-fresh cheek by using a peach blush with a touch of bronzer, and then add a nude and peach tone lip.
MADISON STYLE TIPS
Tip 1. You don’t have to wear something that shouts holiday to a holiday party . A subtle dress can speak volumes of elegance and party chic just as well.
Tip 2. Rock an ultra cool shoe number with Jerome Rousseau. This velvet creation is so on trend for the fall, and most importantly, it’s comfortable and can be worn after the holidays are over.
Tip 3. Top the look with a Vita Fede bracelet to complete the entire look with a super simple accent .
BLUSHINGTON MAKE-UP TIPS
Tip 1. Use a heavier of a foundation so it will last all throughout the party of a night and celebration. Try using an oil free foundation to help ensure it lasts.
Tip 2. Go with a smokier eye to dress up the beauty look to go along with your chic outfit.
Tip 3. As berry and plum are the colors of this season, make sure you use a berry blush on the cheeks, and a pigmented plum color for the lip. The dark-rich lip will make your look a little more dramatic, dressed up, and of course festive!
