Now that it's unofficially but ceremonially the start of summer, it's time to peel off the layers and really think about what we wear under there! One of the easiest ways for women to express their personal style is with lingerie, at least I believe so. How do you think about choosing that intimate first layer? Is it because of the outfit you're planning on wearing, the occasion or just maybe, the makeup?  Makeup is an interesting concept to match up with your most intimate choices! I've teamed up with Adore Me to share some of my favorite looks from their collection and makeup to go with it. 

If you enjoy the frills, bright colors,  and pretty little bows then you will love the playful sets that Adore Me has to offer in their new Spring collection. The makeup trend to match that perfectly would be bright eyes and bold lips.  Colorful lids are quite on trend this season with a solid matching pucker, like Nars Duo Eyeshadow in China Seas and Laqa & Co Fat Lip Pencil in Toots.

If you're one for the smoky and dark make up looks you're going to love the Sexy Spring collection by Adore me. One of the easiest ways for women to express their personal style is with lingerie. Black lace, mesh, cut outs and even grommets to personalize your look. The makeup to match this trend would be a flirtatious smoky eye, bold cheeks and dark red lips like plums or berries. I like Tarte Matte Lipsurgence in Moody, Benefit Benetint, and Urban Decay Naked Palette. 

Maybe you like more of a natural look, something that requires no thought or much time into it, like me! Easy going t shirt bras, bralettes, neutral tones, no fuss, but still maintaining a hint of allure, Adore Me has plenty for you too. Their latest Spring collection provides you with every day comfort and support. The makeup trend this season to go along with that look would be a natural looking face. Dewy skin, mascara, bold brows, and a naturally stained lip. I like to achieve that look with Clarins Bb Cream,  Bobbi Brown Extreme Party Mascara, Benefit Gimme Brow Set, and Fresh Sugar Rose Tinted Lip Treatment.

Our lingerie greatly affects how feel and how we dress. It's almost like one piece can give us a whole new personality for the day! Next time you get dressed think about how this season's hottest makeup trends will coincide with what you choose to wear, under there! Also be sure to check out Adore Me and they're fabulous Spring collection. Everything is absolutely beautiful and affordable! Dear readers, I would love to know how you decide on your first layer?
