When wearing dainty earrings or stackable rings or layered necklaces, one can go with a bold approach in makeup. Apply heavy eye makeup and complementary bold colours on the lip.

* Nude make- up The natural, nude or no makeup look is definitely trending this season. This kind of makeup is toned down, and uses colour that are closer to your true skin tone. Because your face is almost bare, you can bring in colour with bright gemstones and enamel encrusted trinkets, set in gold. The gold adds the right amount of shine, balancing the neutral makeup, so don’t be afraid to experiment and go all out

* Dewy make-up: Think dewy fresh skin, flushed cheeks and pink lips—this makeup look is an all-time favourite of makeup lovers. This gorgeous look should be complemented by equally fabulous jewellery. Opt for a delicate gold chain or neck piece studded with coloured gemstones that will match the shine on your dewy skin.

* All eyes need eyeshadow palette to add a colour pop to your look. Highlight the inner corner of the eyes using the highlighter from the palette

* After hours glam make-up: No after-hours look is complete without a glamorous smokey eye. Apart from black, smokey eyes can be achieved in various shades like brown, and other brighter colours like midnight blue, purple, emerald green etc. and they instantly make you stand out in any party. The best kind of ornaments for your after-hours look would be antique gold, either plain or studded with darker gemstones. Think chunky gold necklaces, gold earrings or gold bangles.
