Hair & Makeup by Kahlia Adams


{Hair}
1. Find your part and section your hair into two
2. Fishtail braid both sides
3. Twist/position both braids into each other and onto one side
4. Bobby pin the crap out of it.
5. Finish the look with a hair gem like this Large Leaf Hair Comb c/o Cinder and Sage


{Makeup}
Inspired by the cobalt cat eye trend seen on the Fall 2012 runways, we decided
that a special occasion called for something very beautiful and dramatic.
Starting with Mac paint eye primer (as a base for long lasting eye makeup), Kahlia
 then mixed different blue hues from the Dior eye palettes.  Adding the 24 hour-wear YSL
 eyeliner and Dior Mascara, we went for a natural glow on the rest of the face.
Lips were also kept neutral in order to keep the focus on the eyes.

    I like how "Bobby pin the crap out of it." is a hair styling instruction 🙂

      That's just my hair expertise shining through 😉 But seriously, my hair rejects bobby pins like crazy, so it always requires a ton of pins in order to get a couple to stay in place.
