Simply gorgeous = Miss Crabb + Belle Du Jour

For the second year running, the terribly clever team at Stephen Marr salon – under the watchful eye of Creative Director Lauren Gunn – have created a series of after hours looks for the ball season under the moniker “Belle Du Jour”. It’s all about turning tradition on its head in terms of fashion, hair and make up, and uses some of New Zealand’s hottest designers to frock the models up. Always in my top two favourite designers list is Miss Crabb, created by the glamorous, unique and beautiful Kristine Crabb. Her designs have the same attributes, and the Stephen Marr crew have created a beautiful hair and make up look to go with a peachy pink off the shoulder frock that they’ve called “Sixteen Candles”. The model picked is a knockout redhead with long, mermaid style waves, which were created using ghd’s Creation Spray and Polishing Serum for an effortless, sexy look. A natural eye was executed using just Becca’s famous mascara in Bronze, with a stronger lip left to dominate – Nvey Eco Lipstick topped by lashings of Becca’s Glossy Lip Tint in Sugar Plum. Last up, a healthy dose of Becca’s Duende Mineral Bronzer for a super duper natural glow. Simply gorgeous.
