FOTD: Tribute to Dolly Parton


I'm going to a costume party so hence the get-up, haha. You didn't seriously think I dress like this?.. Although you might be forgiven for thinking it :P

Anyway this is in honour of the colourful lady of country music - Ms Dolly Parton. A childhood hero of mine, who has just released a song that kind of applies to me too - Backwoods Barbie :) Anyway, getting back to the matter at hand. This turned out to be an exercise in theatrical makeup. I needed to look super-perfected (normally I'm more of a slap-on-dash-out kinda girl...) Hence, bring on all the primers and the face powder, which I normally don't bother with. Also Dolly always matches her nail polish to her lipstick, so I had to find a near perfect match in my stash to my beloved Superstay Powergloss!
