Who's that model?
What to do with a T-shirt #5
|
She looks pretty amazing, whether her hair is cherry red, raven black, or blonde like it is below. Can't tell? It's Linda Evangelista in a soft sexy springtime pastel look. If you want that cool beauty, look no further than your own closet.
Get her laid-back look with a touch of shine.
The clothes
Dig out a pair of pants from the 70s - plain and simple, with a bit of flair. Just simply sew or pin up any extra flare from the inside. If you still have last season's capris, they will work well. Try them in khaki, white, or any soft color.
Pick a shiny white shirt, a soft (ironed) cotton shirt, or a simple loose tunic that feels comfortable. Wear it over a turtleneck or tank, or even a tie-neck tank.
Pull on a cardigan round your neck for chilly nights.
The accessories
You can't go out without shoes. Linda wears a pair of white pumps, but sandals will do as well.
Can't do without earrings? Put on a pair of small hoops, or tiny drops that dangle from your lobes.
How can you face the sun? Make sure your eyes are protected with sunglasses - in a daring frame. Pick one up for under $10.
The hair
If your hair is short, sweep it to one side like Linda has, so it falls over your eyes. A layered cut will work well in this style.
Long hair can stay down or placed neatly in a low ponytail with a simple rubberband.
Keep your hair moisturized by rubbing lotion in your palms and smoothing it over your hair. It'll help you beat that vigorous spring breeze, too.
The makeup
Think minimal. Dramatic eye makeup like Linda has takes two coats of dark mascara and a neutral (brown or purple) eyeshadow swept up to the corners of your eyes. Line your lids with a rich pencil eyeliner, like one that self-sharpens.
Lips should not be bare - cover them up with a clear SPF balm and show off your rosy lips. Keep them away from that bad-tasting lipstick that drains the color from your lips. All the better for kissing!
Keep your nails neatly trimmed and filed. Linda wears a light pink that nearly blends into her skin. Try just plain, shiny buffed nails, too.
Don't forget your sunscreen!
The attitude
No look is complete without an attitude. This woman knows she looks cool and collected. So can you.
Go out there in your new look, enjoy the sun and relax in it. You can take your time, the days are getting longer.
Walk out, and people will wonder what famous person you are - and as you stride by with confidence, remember that only you know who you really are.
