Valentine's Colors Day 9 💕

This was the begining of Valentine's week, so was into the burgundy colors. Here, I wore a multi-color, floral print top with burgundy pants and burgundy boots. For accessories: blush acrylic earrings, a blush fuzzy scarf, blush bangles, and a blush flower ring. I much rather have worn blush boots, but the pants were too long for them. For makeup: burgundy shadow and lipgloss. I was a bit bummed because I failed to put on navy eyeliner to go with the blue in the top.

For makeup: blush and black shadows and a muted pink lipstick.
