A while back, I did a makeup tutorial using blue, purple, and pink.  I called it Blueberry.

Today, I’m going to show you what you could wear with that makeup look.

Every season, there’s some color trend out there that’s getting all the hype.  And that’s of course where sayings like “Orange is the new pink” come from. (That and Josie and the Pussycats.)

Purple is so in right now.  I went to a clothing store the other day and almost everything on the racks had purple in it.  (It’s a shame.  I wish pink was in right now, but I guess purple is the new pink.)

In the makeup world, smoky eyes is in right now as well.  I decided to put these two trends together, so I created Plum Smoke.

Did you know that you can do a smoky eyes look without using any grey or black eye shadow?  It’s true.  The smoke in this tutorial is subtle, but still so totally adorable, without any of those colors.

This look also has a vintage feel based on how I did the eyeliner and mascara.  If you like vintage makeup techniques, then you’ll like this look.

Read on for the Plum Smoke eye shadow tutorial.
