Your Mom Style Link Up

My mom may not be the most fashionable woman on the planet

and my sister and I may give her a hard time about this

but we love that she always put us first, 

even if that meant sacrificing a budget for her own wardrobe!

This is one of my absolute favorite photos of my mom. It's from her wedding day in 1987. 

My parents had a very small wedding with just close family at my grandparents home.

I love how 80s all of it is

but I also love that she's just glowing and full of joy!

My mom is truly a beauty.

Here's how you can get this look!

Hair

• Curl with 1" round curling iron, curling away from face
• Finish with lots of Paul Mitchell Freeze and Shine Super Spray

Makeup

• Generously apply eyeshadow, blending to eyebrow
• Use MAC eyeshadow in Winkle 

• Lightly apply lipstick
• Use MAC lipstick in Lady Danger, a coral-red

• Get a healthy glow for radiant, bronze skin (she used the tanning bed)
• Avoid unhealthy rays and use Fake Bake Flawless or your favorite self tanner

Attire

• stay classy with simple pearl necklace and earrings 
• explore puffy sleeves with blouses like these!

 

• blue and white are perfect for summer

I hope that you have enjoyed a peak into my mom's style

and the ways you can emulate it now!

Have a great week, y'all!
