What’s more fun than talking to you guys through the web about beauty? Being up close and personal taking about it live and in the flesh!

Yesterday evening was my BECCA summer beauty event at New London Pharmacy. This was completely epic for me because 1. BECCA is an awesome brand that I’ve been using since 2004 and has some amazing new products for us to love (take a peek at my previous BECCA posts here) and 2.

You know how we do around these parts when it comes to livening up the work wardrobe—we go hard or we go home! Today’s look is inspired by your typical workwear basics—the blouse, pencil skirt, satchel, and pumps but we kicked things way up with color. But it’s still professional and polished.
