Spring 2011 RTW Chez Toi -- 70's Makeup at Gucci


Our third runway inspiration in the Chez Toi series hails from design house, Gucci's 70's makeup beauty look.  I call it the "brass eye" because the tone is golden, but in it lies a hint of darkness -- almost burnt.  Here, Gucci has paired the brass eye with a bold lip (stay tuned for my bold lip trend inspiration!) in red-orange.  For those of you who want to recreate this look to a T, try MAC's Lady Danger applied very carefully with a lip brush.
