50’s inspired

17 July 2011 by Carolina Engman

LOVE. After traveling for 15 hours straight, I’m back on swedish grounds again! I’m leaving for Milan on monday morning and have tons of clothes to wash + pack until then. Just wanted to do a quick post of the 50’s inspired hair + makeup look that the insanely talented hair/makeup artist Lavoisier did on me for the shoot I did last tuesday. Oh how I wish I could look like this everyday, but alas, I’m too lazy to curl my hair and put on fake lashes every morning

One thing I’m definitely going to steal from this look though is the amazing lipstick called ‘Lady Danger’ from Mac. Probably the most perfect shade of bright red I’ve tried so far! I’ll post more backstage pictures tomorrow, now I’m going to get myself some well needed sleep!
