Happy New Year! Makeup and Favorite Photos of 2014

I hope everyone had a great holiday and a fabulous New Year's Eve! Many people signify the beginning of the year with a fresh start, setting new goals and exploring possibilities. Whether you follow through with a diet plan, get promoted or find love just remember that it is never too late to go after what you want! Any day can be a turning point, so don’t feel discouraged if life doesn't always follow the path you expect.

I don’t make resolutions anymore because I am constantly changing my goals throughout the year. I always wish for success in all my endeavors and a happy, healthy life for me and my family. I know that it takes patience, hard work and determination to achieve anything worthwhile so I try to stay positive and dispel negativity.

2014 passed by in a flash of trips, fun and new experiences. From: California, Spain, Rome, Venice, Jamaica, Hawaii, Mexico and New Orleans I was truly blessed with some amazing opportunities and I was able to see a bit more of the world!

For New Year’s Eve I had a quiet evening with lots of champagne, food and family. It was freezing here in Toronto so I avoided the outdoors and stayed warm and cozy. Usually I break out the sparkle and do something dramatic with my makeup but since I didn't feel like spending weeks cleaning up loose glitter from every surface in my house, I decided to go simple.

I created a smokey eye using a chrome/silver shadow and paired it with black shadow in the crease and a matte brow highlight. On my lips I wore a nude/pink gloss by Stila in the shade 06 Vinyl Nude.
