Fashion: Grey Box

FotorCreated — Jacket (Forever 21); Shirt (Forever 21); Jeans (Garage); Shoes (American Apparel)

In New York it’s been in between 80°F and 40°F out one day after another. I put together this outfit on one of the normal early-spring weather days.

Starting off with the jacket: I’ve seen similar jackets at high-end stores and fell in love with this style. I’m glad I found a dupe for it.

I bought this one at Forever 21 a couple weeks ago in New Jersey. I was looking for a back tight midi dress, and came across this jacket and the mock neck shirt I’m wearing in the photos. I tried them on and fell in love with the color combination of the olive-grey and the light grey. I went to go pay for the items, but the line was too long and I had to be somewhere.

So I returned to the store and found the jacket again in a small, but it had a nail polish stain and it was the only small. I was heartbroken until the cashier told me she’d give me a small discount. I was able to get off most of the nail polish, so it was well worth it.

Makeup:

On my lid I used ‘Combust’ from the Urban Decay Naked Smoky Palette ($54). I blended out ‘Password’ from the Naked Smoky palette with an olive green color from BH Cosmetics 120 Palette ($16) to make the olive green a little bit greyer. You can also use ‘Marsh’ from the Lime Crime Venus Palette ($32), which I just got but didn’t have for this look.

As for eyeliner I used the NYX Colored Felt Tip Liner in ‘Grey’ ($10).

Lashes are Ardell’s Demi Wispies Black and I topped them off with Perversion Mascara by Urban Decay ($10).

On my lips I used NYX Lingerie Liquid Lipstick ($7) in ‘Exotic,’ check out my swatch video here.
