Now that it's over...
If you have yet to see pictures or videos or ANYTHING from the Royal Wedding last Friday then you may just live under a rock. Millions of people tuned in to watch a "commoner," Kate Middleton, marry Prince William, second in line to the throne.
It's safe to say that Kate Middleton (now known as HRH, the Duchess of Cambridge) is absolutely stunning and her wedding day didn't disappoint. She wore an insanely gorgeous traditional and classic silhouette, reminiscent of Grace Kelly's wedding dress, yet completely modern gown by Sarah Burton of Alexander McQueen. The Cartier tiara was a gift lent to her by the Queen for her big day.
However, to me, the best part of all of this was that she did her own makeup. What? A woman marrying into the Royal Family in front of millions of people and broadcast all over the world did her own makeup AND pulled it off? Yup. It wasn't too drastic of a change from her normal make up routine but she did have a heavier smokey eye, pink cheeks, and a light pink gloss. Some articles and other blogs suggest that the eyeliner was too much and too heavy but I say go for it, she looked absolutely radiant. To get her make up look, check out Victoria's Secret facebook page. (Like us on Facebook too!)
As for the hair, I'm so glad she wore it long and lose, but not totally casual like her usual gorgeous blow out. She jazzed it up a bit but kept it looking like her. The pieces around her face were pulled back which just highlighted her face.
All in all, if I were getting married tomorrow, I would want this exact look from head to toe; she looks like a princess.
What do you think of her Royal Wedding look?
