Let’s Have Some Gin and Get Dolled Up

Recently I was lucky enough to go to a Gin & Disco festival with some of my closest friends and family. Anywhere there’s day drinking, gin and good music – I’m there in a heartbeat.

Even though everything kicked off at 2pm, I still wanted to be super glam – afterall, it was a disco and if that’s not an excuse to get super dolled up, then what is?

If you’re looking for a super glam, super summery makeup look that’s going to wow – then look no further and enjoy!
