- Brown leather jewelry will look the most advantageous and stylish. It can be belts, bracelets and necklaces. Large jewelry made of turquoise and amber are also suitable. Thin gold chains and rings also accentuate the outfit. And white cold shine, on the contrary, does not combine well with warm beige.
Makeup
If you decide to wear a beige outfit from head to toe, pay special attention to makeup. Be sure to add a “nude” dress to the floor with a bright accent on the face, for example, red lipstick and well-defined cheekbones. In this case, the eyes should not be painted too brightly; there will be enough mascara for eyelashes, eyeliner for inter-eyelash space and eyebrows underlined by brown shadows. If bright lips are not your option, then bring your eyes in a jet black eyeliner with a wide, long arrow and color your eyelashes thickly. On the lips, apply a gentle peach gloss or matte pale pink lipstick. Smoky ice makeup is also suitable, but not in black, but in brown or emerald colors, do not forget to work out the eyebrows with brown gel.
For daily makeup, you can emphasize the fold of the upper eyelid with brown, olive or bronze shades, apply warm peach blush and a transparent lip gloss.
