At first the thought of Emerald Green made me reminisce about the late 80s/Early 90s. Emerald Green was everywhere then: home decor, fashion...yes, I was *all about* Emerald Green. So much so that I wish that my coloring was more "Winter" (remember those seasonal colors? What was that Beauticontrol?). Well, colors always come back in Fashion. What is new is old and what is old is new (lol!). If you have scoped out your local Mall lately you know what I mean 80s/early 90s Fashion is back in a big way: the shorts and tights combos of the 90s, 'ugly" printed sweaters (No, I have not jumped on the Wildfox jumper bandwagon just yet), lots of color throwbacks like peach and emerald, and OMG I have even seen Stirrup pants (seriously!!!). Want more 80s inspiration? Look no further than Prime Time television and the new hit (and 80s throwback) the Carrie Diaries. As a lover of all things Carrie Bradshaw and *cough* high school teen dramas (OMG, how old am I again?), you know that I am watching and loving that show (lol!) and supressing the urge to crimp my hair. A combination of my nostalgia, my general love for green, and my interest in trends has me all-over Emerald!
What are the Makeup Wars?
What are the Makeup Wars? The Makeup Wars bloggers are a small group of top beauty bloggers with a serious love for makeup. We mutually pick topics (e.g., Favorite Red Lipstick, Best Fall Look, Most Repurchased Items) and blog-blast our posts at precisely the same time every other Monday. We include a graphic link at the top and bottom of all of our posts so that you, the reader, can scroll through all of our blogs reading different blogger's perspectives on the same general concept. Get a pen and paper ready! I always seem to make my makeup wishlist while reading through all of the Makeup Wars blogger's posts!
So, lets dive in! What are my recent Emerald purchases and my beauty picks in Emerald (and other greens)? Keep reading to find out!
