it's true.


i used to wear my makeup like this (circa 1993-1997)...for every friday night football game in high school (HOT, i know). when i saw this picture, i was instantly taken back to my days on dance team. the only thing that needs to change is her hair- it needs to be in a tight french braid...the kind that makes your eyes water b/c it's pulled so tight. i looked on facebook for a picture to show y'all....luckily, i couldn't find any.
on another note, keely from luxe+ lillies was nice enough to ask me to participate in her wander over wednesday post...

    haha! how I remember these days. It may be why I rarely wear makeup now. Back then I wore enough for life.

    oh, it makes me laugh so hard. I think we are all glad that makeup is toned down from the 80s and 90s. I used to wear a shade of lipstick that was so pale and shimmery I looked dead! ha!

    That blue eye shadow is awesome! I was a bit more of a purple eye shadow kinda girl, which went well with my really dark lipstick, classy!

    I think the eyebrows really complete the look. She has nothing on Brooke Shields!

    OMG, you just made me laugh out loud...warren totally got me a mac makeover about 8 yrs ago and the colors they used on my eyes were insane. why they insist on applying such bold colors is beyond me. i think i still have the "green shadows" in my make up bag...the laughs on me b/c i actually purchased them!
