"Out of the Blue" Makeup & Style

Hey beauties! It's 7-something AM in LA, but I'm still on NY time. I'm feeling a little woozy from the traveling, but I'm ecstatic over the anticipation of the events to come in the next few weeks. I'm starting my day in clear and sunny downtown LA where Lee and I will be for the next few days for the NYX Face Awards 2014 and then for some downtime with friends. On Monday, we'll be flying straight to Vegas for the upcoming Vegas Nay Stardust Tour, where we will be participating as featured guests. I will be sharing a separate post on that in a couple of days, but in the meantime, you can click on the link to get the scoop.

My Itinerary:
Aug 22-25: Los Angeles NYX Face Awards 2014
Aug 26 - Sep 3: Las Vegas Vegas Nay Stardust Tour

For today's makeup / style post, I've prepared one of my favorite looks: a vibrant blue smokey eye using all NYX Cosmetics! This look is more wearable than you may think and goes perfectly with a dressed up chambray shirt.
