Coral Blazer for an Interview...
I pondered for days on what to wear for an interview I had, as I'm sure many often struggle to do with. I decided to opt for a pop of color, as many should know by now, of coral. It's a great way to bring life to what can be dull and neutral colors of black or grey, which are the colors I gravitate towards for clothing, if not accentuated with vibrant pieces and accessories.

*Lipsticks can be great products to substitute for cream blushers, as they are cheaper alternatives and the lasting power is both amazing with pigmentation equivalent to that of a true cream blusher.
