Inspired by Tom Ford Soleil Color Summer 2016

If you are not familiar with the “Inspired by…” series, click here for an explanation. But short story even shorter, each month I choose a seasonal ad and try to recreate the models look with colors I already own. Dressing up and awkward posing included! For the last summer ad 2016 I wanted a really bronzey, warm look. Hard to achieve when you look like Caspar the friendly ghost in real life, but we only grow through challenge, am I right?     Tom Ford Soleil Color Summer 2016 is…

If you are not familiar with the “Inspired by…” series, click here for an explanation. But short story even shorter, each month I choose a seasonal ad and try to recreate the models look with colors I already own. Dressing up and awkward posing included!

Inspired by… Dolce & Gabbana the one

If you are not familiar with the “Inspired by…” series, click here for an explanation. But short story even shorter, each month I choose a seasonal ad and try to recreate the models look with colors I already own. Dressing up and awkward posing included!   Now this is, of course, no seasonal ad. But I had to prefilm due to the baby arriving, and the lovely Kay from “Shoes and Glitter” had requested a tutorial on this look, so I figured it would be the perfect choice. Aktivieren Sie…

Inspired by … Givenchy La Revelation Originelle Spring 2016

If you are not familiar with the “Inspired by…” series, click here for an explanation. But short story even shorter, each month I choose a seasonal ad and try to recreate the models look with colors I already own. Dressing up and awkward posing included!     Year after year, the spring collections are the most challenging for me to recreate, simply because I don’t feel like pastel colors suit me and I only own a few of them. So when I tried to recreate the Givenchy La Revelation Originelle…

Inspired by … Dior Glowing Gardens Spring 2016

If you are not familiar with the “Inspired by…” series, click here for an explanation. But short story even shorter, each month I choose a seasonal ad and try to recreate the models look with colors I already own. Dressing up and awkward posing included!   This months installment is the Dior Glowing Gardens Collection, which stood out to me due to the fact that the model was wearing yellow eyeshadow, paired with purple. To be honest, I didn’t own a yellow eyeshadow and don’t think it is a color…

Inspired by Chanel LA Sunset Spring 2016

If you are not familiar with the “Inspired by…” series, click here for an explanation. But short story even shorter, each month I choose a seasonal ad and try to recreate the models look with colors I already own. Dressing up and awkward posing included!   This months choice was requested by my favorite Italian blogger Carol in a page, who suggested I´d do this one because “I already had the hair” (original quote). Now my hair may have a slight resemblance, but I did lack the wind machine, blue…

Looking for a New Years Eve Makeup? – Be inspired!

It has been more than a year now that I have been doing the “Inspired by…” series, a monthly feature where I try to recreate the look from a seasonal ad, using products I already own. And while I was browsing my pictures, I realized that most of them are pretty outgoing and party appropriate, so I figured: What better way to recap these posts than today? Maybe you will find something that will inspire you when going out tonight. If so, please drink some Champagne for yours truly, sitting…
