How to Look Gorgeous in Glasses
As a glasses wearer myself I know how tricky it can be to get your make up just right when you take into account those frames are going to be masking much of your handiwork. Should you go heavier on mascara? Skip out eye shadow completely? Compensate with a statement lip? The options are endless and there is a distinct lack of information out there on what you really ought to be doing.
Wearing glasses is great, and is very en vogue at the moment. From a 10 point increase in perceived IQ (I'm sure I read that somewhere, let's assume it's still 100% accurate), to celebrities like Kristen Stewart, Anne Hathaway and Jennifer Anniston showing that the four eyed look can be stylish, glasses are definitely not the geek symbol they were back in my school days.
Wearing them since I was a teenager has given me a bit of time to acquire some experience in the field, so here are a few tips for keeping your look polished whilst wearing them:
1. You have license to go a bit heavier on mascara
Good news is you can get away with layering up your mascara since the defining your eyes becomes all the more important, so layer up and go big with the lashes!
2. Highlighting eye shadows are your friend
Highlighting eye shadows really help to add that glowiness, especially if your frames are dark. Otherwise you're in danger of casting a dark shadow around your eyes, which isn't ideal for the fresh faced look.
3. Brows are important
Keeping those brows tidy really helps to frame the face, especially when the specs bring even more attention to them. No hairy caterpillars here!
4. Keep 'em curly
Curling your eye lashes also brings yet more definition to your eye, and will help to make them stand out when your lenses are covering them up.
5. Keep the brights on your lips
Piling on bright eye shadows to your lids will mean that you are in danger to looking a bit clownish. Keep the colour to your lips where they can really help to balance out your face.

Trending Spotting: Suede Skirts
As spring edges closer and closer, one trend that's getting everyone excited is the 70s inspired suede skirt.
I personally really like the look of this one. So easy to wear it'll be perfect for taking you through a chilly Easter into what will hopefully be a slightly warmer spring if worn with long length boots and then bare legs and sandals.
Bloggers have been wearing the look in a few different ways. The patchwork style had a great vintage feel, and the high waisted longer length style feels really modern and KimK-esque. Hopefully more high street options will come out as we move further away from winter, but in the mean time there are a few nice options out there.
