BrideglassesfiftiesWell, when the topic “For Your Eyes Only” was handed to me, I thought to myself, “do we really need another post about eye makeup?”  While there truly are a million and one things to expound on–smoky eyes, mascara, how to create perfect brows, the best waterproof eyeliners– I chose, instead, to pick something a little more original.  GLASSES.  Yes, gorgeous, be-spectacled brides who wear their eyewear proudly on their wedding day.  Here are a few of my recent faves…

Aren’t they lovely?  Honestly, if glasses are a part of your persona (as they are mine!), then why not be yourself on your wedding day and show them off?

I do have a couple quick tips…

** If you are having you makeup professionally done, make sure to tell your artist that you will be wearing your glasses on your wedding day.  A little thicker eyeliner or stronger cheek can really help balance your features.

** If you are doing your own makeup, I suggest applying a bit more eyeliner than you typically would.  Liquid liner is stunning!  You don’t want your eyes to be too dark, but you definitely want them to sparkle!  Just make sure you do a thorough final look in the mirror with your specs on to make sure that everything is in place.
