A tutorial on how to survive the Wisconsin runway:

In this unpredictable whether, it is difficult to retain a beautiful mane in this frequent rain. Try putting your hair up and out of your face to prevent the wind from ruining your grace.

Basic tees are always the first step to a comfy look, without much effort. Try thick leggings, knee high socks and a tall boot! Simplistic, yet chic! Throw a printed scarf around your neck as an accessory and apply basic matte makeup for a natural complexion!

When applying makeup, it is essential to moisturize! Determine the correct application of moisture based on the oils released by your face!

Apply foundation to blemished areas and blend.

Simply powdering your face with a slight shimmer, reveals a bright fresh look, preventing the heavy foundation look.

For the hair: braid it! Braiding is a lovely technique that displays style and talent. There are so many ways to twist and turn your strands into glam!

 

The fish tail braid is a lovely way to spice up your look, draping over your shoulder perhaps!

 

 

If you prefer something more exotic, attempt to recreate this art!

 

 

Be the glam diva! Braid a lock of hair and pull it up into a whimsical, show-stopping style!

 

 

Notice how the hair becomes as asset of the overall look, adding texture and class!

The day to night transition is simple and easy, seeing as the only accessories to add are earrings and a chic pair of daring heels!
