Autumn Colour Combinations


Autumn is my favourite season and the season from which I draw the most inspiration for my wardrobe and makeup. Most fall evenings I can be found curled up in front of the fireplace with a blanket, a cup of aromatic tea, and a good book. Those feelings of warmth and comfort translate well into the colours I pick or my makeup. 

The colour combination that has been my go-to look for the past couple of weeks has been burnished gold and rusty burgundy. I usually apply gold all over the lid up to the socket and smudge burgundy on the upper and lower lash lines. The result is a sophisticated pop of colour that warms the complexion. Two products that I love for this look are Mac's Indianwood and Idyllic paint pots. Idyllic is limited edition from the recent Posh Paradise collection but can still be found online and in-store as long as quantities last.

  2. I'm obsessed with paint pots. Idyllic is such a pretty colour. I don't have Indianwood though, surprisingly. Definitely looks like they'd go so well together.
