One of the trends we’re loving for summer is a strong liquid-lined eye paired with a nude lip: some might say it’s a Lana Del Rey kind of thing, but we’d rather cite 60’s French film star Brigette Bardot. “Bardot is one of the original bombshells but anyone can pull off this look,” says makeup […]

Summer is blazing by, and it’s made me realize that we’re a quarter-way through July and I still haven’t hosted a proper al fresco dinner party… shame!
