Here are a couple of things you may not have yet thought about pertaining to this week/end: Halloween falls on Friday, the start of the weekend (yes and yes some more) annnnd…you don’t have to go to anybody’s party or answer any door for little people begging for their next sugar high while looking like the scariest thing since Bride of Frankenstein. Actually, you can go to anybody’s Halloween bash or host your own as someone posh and beautiful and sexy and intelligent and chic. No, not as yourself. As the other beautiful and sexy and intelligent and chic boss. As Ms. Diana Ross, baby.

A throwback to her epic heydays of dropping it like it’s hot at Studio 54, this looks is inspired by Ms. Ross ability to cut a rug and look really good while doing so. The key to this look is the eyes. In the vein of both Diana’s and Twiggy’s ability to make their eyes speak to the world, Lindsey made Paris’ eyes pop by first tight lining them with MAC Fascinating Eye Khol, a beautiful, creamy, white eyeliner. Next, she applied a retro and mod style of strip lashes on the top and individuals on the bottom of her eyes. The rest of the look came together quite easily. A swipe of of the peach-based nude (third shadow from the left in the top row) from the Maybelline Expert Wear Eyeshadow Nudes Palette and a thick, liquid wing on her eyes topped off with a high shine, red, glossy lipstick brought the story of our muse together.
