Plorange!

I bought a purple shirt and an orange shirt from Old Navy last week, intending on wearing them alone. Then I tried them on (at home) and realized they were waaaaaaay low cut. Cue layering! So I bought some cute tanks from Walmart to wear underthem. A purple for under the orange, an orange for under the purple. :P Two days in a row I wore purple and orange together. They just...mesh so well!

So here I am sporting purple and orange eyeshadow to match. Hence the title: Plorange. ;)

I'm getting lazy with adding colors because I've been using my Coastal Scents palette so darned much. I used two of the orange colors from the palette, my eyeshadow staple Polyester Bride by Urban Decay (any shimmery white will do), two of the purples from the palette, and a black liquid eyeliner. Really quite simple.

Sweet Treats Inspiration -- Oranges 'n Cream Soda

What can I say? I have a hard time wearing eyeshadow that doesn't somewhat match my outfit at the very least. Before I received my Coastal Scents palette I kept looking up at my wardrobe at an orange stripey shirt I bought at the Gap last year on clearance. It's starting to warm up and I've been wanting to wear it. But, alas, I had no orange eyeshadow to match so on the rack it stayed.

Until today! Since my Coastal Scents palette has pretty much every color of the rainbow in gradient form, I decided to try an orange look today. Then I got to thinking about my 'Sweet Treats' inspiration. For some reason, I couldn't get orange cream soda out of my head! So I Googled it and, duh, Stewart's makes an Oranges 'n Cream soda! And that, my friends, served as today's inspiration!
