“I tend to wear at least one statement piece (it could be my shoes, a necklace or dress) and let the rest of my outfit play off of that piece.”

Beauty Crush Wednesday: Lori Harvey

bcw-lori-harvey-8

With the start of a new year, we’re all about introducing fresh faces. While we may all know her as the daughter of Steve and Marjorie Harvey, this week’s beauty crush, Lori Harvey, is well on her way to creating a name for herself in the worlds of fashion and beauty. 

As the daughter of a mega-successful entertainer and a woman as fashionable and fabulous as Marjorie, Lori may have some fierce shoes to fill. But it seems the gorgeous 19-year-old front row fashion week fixture, who boasts over 213,000 Instagram followers, is doing so with ease, especially when it comes to makeup.

Lori knows what works for her complexion and typically favors nudes and earthy tones on the lips and eyes and a little bit of Laura Mercier Matte Radiance Baked Powder bronzer for good measure.    But every now and then, she’ll punch things up with a striking red lip. Classic, no?As for hair, she has a lot of it, but manages it so well. Whether bone straight, curly, or showcasing cascading waves, her mane stays on point with nary a strand out of place.

Yesterday, our nation mourned as beloved President Barack Obama delivered his Farewell Speech. It is the end of a golden era. The First Family will be missed.

Though Sasha was away, studying for an exam, Malia and First Lady Michelle Obama attended the event in style, with Michelle in a Jason Wu Fall 2016 black lace dress, and Malia in Cinq a Sept’s $395 Seraphina Colorblock Lace Dress.
One of our Instagram fans commented that Mrs. Obama kicked off her reign in Jason Wu, and ended in similarly. There is beauty in loyalty.

Malia looked lovely in Cina a Sept’s Seraphina dress, which flaunts feminine elements, including a curvy fit-and-flare silhouette and blouson sleeves.

Get Malia’s dress at Bloomingdales.
Not only will I miss their presence in the White House–I’ll miss their style as well!
How about you?
