Yesterday I blogged about the Hilton event that I attended and thought I'd share with you what I wore to it and what makeup I used. I wanted to show you guys a bit of a different makeup look and since I usually go for either a smoky eye or statement lip, I went for natural eyes and a nude lip (there was a lot of eating and drinking so this was appropriate)

MAC Angel has been my go-to nude lip for about 5 years now, nothing will replace it and I used a Bobbi Brown palette on my eyes (which had been hidden away in my makeup drawer for months). I kept my skin quite natural and instead of using a blush I used MAC Mineralized Skin Finish in Dark on my cheeks for a sun-kissed glow.

It took me ages to decided what to wear and while I was looking through my wardrobe I came across a black midi dress I'd bought way before Christmas and had totally forgotten about. I wasn't sure I would suit it as I'm quite short and my legs aren't exactly the skinniest, but I went for it anyway and ended up really liking it. To make it a bit more casual I added a cross necklace, some ankle boots, my studded shoulder cardigan and my favourite tartan scarf. I think I'll need to wear this on a night out soon and dress it up with some heels and big hair.

Hope everyone has a lovely weekend!
