Due to extensive conversation on b.org this week, I decided to try makeup at work. My version of the full face.
Which, really, is for pikers. Smashbox PhotoFinish primer for a smooth matte finish, brow pencil and brush, mascara, and shiny shiny lips in Clinique Black Honey.
I feel all obvious and vamped up, but really, anyone who doesn't know me isn't going to notice a thing.
I did feel especially conspicuous today, though. I'm not sure I'm ready for makeup *and* earrings *and* a watch *and* a fitted shirt. Or my co-workers aren't. Because total double takes. But one of my co-workers was flashing belly! I was totally scandalised. And staring. Seriously. I think I saw navel. What was she thinking?
And I'm not allowed to wear a corset. Hmmph.
It does occur to me that I'm more at ease in a corset than earrings and lipstick, but you know. Whatever. Leather skirts in the office are simple for me. Eyeshadow==alien.
