The Intern Life

Post by Jessica

Exciting news, I landed the internship of my dreams! I'm the new graphic design intern for the Revlon offices based in New York City. I'm so excited for the opportunity to do what I love, graphic design, for a company I love! Along with this exciting new chapter in my life comes a good opportunity for me to build a slightly different wardrobe and accessory collection. I've always been the type of girl that loves to dress up. I hardly ever wear lounge-wear to school (except for finals week) and I've been pretty consistent on applying make-up and accessorizing. Now, I have an extra excuse to wear all the blazers I bought and skirts I've collected! Who am I kidding, I wear those with out an excuse =D

 Today, I wore a heather gray bandage skirt. I never really picked up on this trend until now. The design flatters us curvier girls by giving some extra support. I of course, had to were some black tights because it's nothing short of Antarctic weather in New York and a 2+ hour commute can be very, very, very bad with out coverage from Mother Nature. To add some color to the outfit I wore a chartreuse chiffon blouse. Alex wrote about the beautiful combo of gray and a yellow tone, and I followed her advice. To top things off, I wore a crystal and white choker necklace. This business casual look was great for my first day! 

Working for a global make-up company, I felt it was important to put just as much consideration into my face as my outfit. I wore a high coverage matte face featuring my new favorite: The Becca Ultimate Coverage Complexion Creme and my Nars  Radiant Creamy Concealer. I'm really loving this Becca foundation because it lasts literally all day. I have some really long days, I apply my make up at 6AM and get home around 10PM and this foundation is still on and me skin is still soft. It's also not too cakey. I created a very simple, neutral smokey eye using my Lorac Pro Pallet and my Urban Decay Naked Basics Pallet. I added a winged liner and some mascara and lined my waterline with some white shadow. I also applied my Revlon Colorburst balm stain to my lips. For long days like today, i make sure to carry some oil blotting pads to freshen up through out the day.

Overall, I had a long day, but it was so much fun and I can't wait to post more outfits! Do you have an internship? Post a picture of your intern fashion on Facebook or Twitter and tag us, we want to see! And you might be featured in our next post.
