Fall Color Inspiration: Oxblood

Sharon Becker SB Beauty in Oxblood Jacket
Oxblood is one of the hottest color trends of Fall 2012 because it is so wearable. The rich color automatically triggers thoughts of autumn leaves and hot toddies (or is that me?). There are simple ways to incorporate it into your beauty routine and wardrobe without looking like a trend slave.

 

Here are a few ideas (clockwise from top left):
-Nails! Julep is a new brand of toxin-free nail polish, and Keira is the shade you want to try for the oxblood look.

 

-Power lipstick: Nars Pure Matte Lipstick in Volga (oh, the drama!). Keep the rest of your face simple with great skin, groomed brows, and tons of black mascara.

 

-Those who see me often know that I love my skins. Faux leather jeans in the hottest trend color of the season (and an awesome neutral) are a solid investment for freelancers and weekend warriors alike.

-YSL Glossy Stain in Brun Glasse: normally I don’t advocate spending big money on color, but this lip gloss is gorgeous, flattering, and will make you feel fab when you pull it out of your purse to apply. Sounds like a party to me!

-Makeup Forever Aqua Liner in Diamond Burgundy: slide on your upper lid, over a neutral shadow. Low maintenance, long-wearing, and gives any eye color a pop.

I’ve personally enjoyed oxblood for many years – here’s a goofy pic of me wearing my oxblood leather “denim” jacket in front of the Coliseum during my Roman holiday a few years ago.

 

Sharon is talented, organized, patient, hard-working, and calm; she listens carefully to her clients, executes any desired look perfectly, and does an all-around incredible job. I could not have felt more beautiful on my wedding day, and that is largely thanks to Sharon’s exquisite work. My six bridesmaids and all of my family members adored working with Sharon as well… I could not recommend Sharon more highly!

Sharon, thank you SO much for making myself and the wedding party look absolutely stunning.

You are the BEST and I will be sure to recommend you to all my friends and coworkers!

Sharon Becker is truly a gem in this industry! Sharon has the magic touch. That’s really all I can say without repeating myself. If you are looking for a calming presence, an extremely competent hand, and a truly reliable vendor, look no further than Sharon Becker and SB Beauty.

Sharon Becker did my hair and makeup (and hair and makeup for my mom and bridesmaid) at my Spring 2014 wedding. We all looked great, and I loved the way I Iooked–fresh and pretty, but my makeup stayed in place for hours without looking overdone or feeling sticky; plus Sharon is fab to work with–calm and fun and flexible.
