Diwali Outfit, Jewelry, Makeup ideas with a LOTD

When I was in school, the one festival I used to wait for was Diwali!! So many factors contribute towards this excitement. Sweets - especially mom made Gulab Jamun, gifts from family, new dress and also wearing it to school. Nowadays , Diwali has become a quiet affair in my life. But now since I started my blog -every shopping I do has gained some importance and also keeps me motivated. 

So here I am with a LOTD for Diwali.. I will not be wearing this on Diwali day since I have a new saree to wear. But this could help some of you who might be looking for some festive dressing ideas.

I wanted to take beautiful pictures but it has been raining continuously in Chennai , so please excuse the dull lighting in the pictures.

Dress: From Rangoli, Chennai

Festive Look

Eyeshadow Application using only eyeliner pencils

It has been a while since I posted some tutorial.. While I was contemplating on what tutorial I can post, I remembered my bridal MUA Kavitha who did a fabulous job with simple eyeshadows and brushes..So it is in the hands of the MUA and not the products what they use. When I spoke to her regarding my blog & my ideas, she suggested a simple, yet glam eye makeup tutorial using only colored eyeliner pencils, some Q tips, a pair of false lashes and offered to do the tutorial for me.

So here are the steps and pics for you :)
