It's Better to be Fashionably Late Than on Time. With That Said, Here's My New Year's Eve Look!

You know that saying "waste not, want not." Well, I'm going to excuse that expression with this EXTREMELY late post...my New Year's Eve look :D

Last summer, I purchased Chanel's Bombay Express de Chanel, and knew I wanted to recreate the beautiful Indian-inspired looks from the Chanel Paris-Bombay Metiers d’Art Show for New Year's Eve.

From left to right: 85 Mirifique Illusion d’Ombre, Routes des Indes de Chanel, Brume D’Or Joues Contraste, Empreinte Rouge Coco Shine. 

I was glad to see Brume D’Or released in the collection; first, I already owned it (translation, I don't have to shell out $43.00), and second, Brume D’Or is a stunning blush that needs to be introduced to the WORLD! 

Question: Do any of you other lovelies get a feeling of relief when a collection features an item/items that you already own? Or am I, and my pocket book, the only ones?

Products used:

 You probably can't tell, but I cut 5 Inches off my hair and fringe...bad idea :( Thank god, my hair grows fast!

One last photo before washing my face.

What did you wear on New Year's? Also, did you buy anything from this collection?

Looking gorgeous one lipstick at a time.
