An Outfit to Match: Umber Eyes

June 23rd, 2008 by Trisha

To continue my series: An Outfit to Match, today I’m going to show you looks that go along with my Umber Eyes makeup tutorial.

The true essence of Umber Eyes is all about versatility. It uses browns and golds to make a nice smoldering look that is appropriate for the office.

Because of this, today’s outfit to match this look is something you can wear to work. Perfect for a board meeting, yet still as chic as can be.

First, let’s remember what Umber Eyes looked like:

This look used browns and golds to affect a simple look. It even used brown eyeliner, which is something rare for me.

Now, onto the outfit that will match this makeup look:

As you can see, this incorporates the traditional pants suit with some nice touches. I decided to go with brown slacks and a brown blazer. The ruffled top is a shiny gold color to add a nice kick underneath the blazer. The shoes and bracelets bring that gold further, while the earrings incorporate the brown.

Finally, I added some nerdy black glasses, so you can look especially smart while you’re giving that presentation about corporate economics (or something else equally important/boring).
