New Pics of my Work - Brittany

I'm excited to share some new pictures of my work from Brittany's Fashion Shoot!! YAY! Thanks to Ann at Ann Steward Photography for some amazing shots!! :) I LOVE HER!!! Brilliant photographer and just plain fun to be around!!! WIN WIN!! More coming soooooon!! :)

In these shots, I used a combination of loose eyeshadow pigments from NYX and favorite Estee Lauder eyeshadows! Normally...the last color for eyes that I go for is GREEN! But as soon as I took another look at Brittany's eyes, I knew we had to go green with her eye makeup!! I think it turned out great!! :)
We started the shoot with a softer nude lip and finished with a little (only a little) extra something on the lips...hot pink gloss over the nude lip we started with!! Brittany and Ann were so fun to work with!!

Beautiful Brittany...look at those eyes! Makeup by Jessica Curtis Photography by Ann Steward Photography

Wow...Elizabeth Taylor Passes

So sad to hear of Elizabeth Taylor's passing today. What an iconic figure in many ways. Writers will be racing today to talk about the life of Dame Elizabeth. Instead of another article about her life, I wanted only to share a few of my favorite pictures of Liz in her younger days. What a beauty.

Strangely, before today I had already begun a blog about inspirations..."What inspires you?" One of my inspirations - Vintage, retro or classic anything. Elizabeth Taylor's passing has catapulted my creative juices into finishing this piece about what inspires me!!! Until then, I wanted to share a few of my favorite images of such an iconic beauty. Notice a recurring them...strong brow, bold lip. Beautiful.

Enjoy the pictures. Rest in peace Dame Elizabeth.

Which one is your favorite? I'd love to hear!!
