New York Fashion Week is in full swing, and although I am thoroughly exhausted, I couldn’t be happier about it. After a fairly restful summer, I am itching to get back to the glitz and glamour of a night out in New York City, preferably dancing the night away with my nearest and dearest. I can’t say that Fashion Week parties are necessarily where I’ll be spending my time for the rest of the fall season, but it’s a nice way to kick off the back-to-school, back-to-partying vibe. What better way to dust off my beauty editor makeup skills (especially when I’ve been little more than a lip stain and cream blush all summer)? The secret, however, is to not just fall back on the tried-and-true classic smokey eye when I want to make a serious statement with my glam. Instead, I reach for a few unexpected blue eye makeup options to help my hazel eyes pop—and make a dazzling first impression.
