Pantone Color of the Year!

I'm definitely behind on this color of the year thing!! I mean I don't really believe in it, but there is something about having a fresh new look and a brand new color to base that around.  We all will take an excuse to buy a new makeup product, right?!

As far as wedding makeup goes, I would discourage brides to go with anything too trendy! Classic & Timeless makeup choices are best.  Now, don't get me wrong, you can incorporate Marsala in a myriad of ways into your wedding. And not just in makeup.  It definitely won't look "dated". For example . . .

But if you're just looking for makeup for everyday and need a fresh makeup-bag-makeover, basing it on "THE COLOR OF THE YEAR" is a great way to find something fresh & exciting.  So I've done some research just for you!


Marsala . . . Tada! It's not red, it's not burgandy.  It' s Marsala.  Kind of a currant color.  Which makes my first pick perfect -

Make up For Ever Blush

Make up For Ever cream blush in Black Currant.  It's a cream... but you'll get that gorgeous Marsala color when applied.  My bestie is contemplating the purchase of this blush as I write this. It's a splurge, but you could wear on your lips as well! It can be purchased at Sephora for $26. 

There's a lovely little blog posted by Jolie.  You'll need to hit the translate button, but she shows you how to coordinate Marsala colored clothes and makeup with accessories! Brilliant!  

She features on there one of my most favorite eyeshadow palettes from Dior.  Now let me just tell you there isn't a Dior 5- Colour pan palette that I have seen that I don't die for! I'm not kidding... I love every single one of them.  But this one is especially gorgeous. (and yes, I say that about all of them.) 

Trafalgar 5-Colour Eye Shadow- Dior

Last but not least, a girls gotta have a lipstick (or a lip gloss).  This pick is from my line (Blushed by Tami).  It's a lip gloss that goes on nicely and plumps your lips! It's great sheer color with a little sparkle and it isn't sticky.  It glides on with a brush rather than a doe toed applicator.  That will give you a bit more control and the ability to build onto other lip products.  You can purchase Voluptuous over at my website for $15.

So there you have it . . . The 2015 Pantone Color of the Year - Marsala. 

You're welcome!

2015 Best of Weddings!!!

Ok, so I promise I'll stop gushing right after this post!!! But really super excited to win The Knot's (of theknot.com - the biggest wedding site out there) Best of Weddings Award. Chosen by brides!! So I took this photo of my plaque ... 

But then I was able to get nice web badges like this ...

It's a great honor to have so many of my brides take the time to review our company. Really it seems like anymore people need to complain because customer service stinks so much. I mean people just don't care. I seriously am in shock sometimes when I hear stories about unreal bad customer service.  

I mean I know I'm being a little excited, but this award represents the highest-rated wedding professionals as reviewed by real couples, their families and wedding guests on The Knot! 

Here's a little about how they choose the winners - In 2015, only 2% of the 250,000 local wedding professionals listed on the TheKnot.com have received this distinguished accolade. The Knot Best of Weddings 2015 provides an annual by-couples, for couples guide to the top wedding professionals across the country.  

So to have brides take time and review in a positive, 5 Star manner, lets me know we're doing our job. Because we do care. And I want each bride to feel special and beautiful on her day! 

So thank you beautiful people! I can't wait to see what 2015 has in store!
