ave you ever been invited to a fancy event and had about 2 minutes to get ready for it? This happens to me all the time because all my mates know I’m fomo and if someone invites me somewhere, there’s a very high chance I’m going to say yes. Which means I’ve spent many afternoons screeching around my house trying to get to bombshell level hotness in a matter of minutes.
I’ve stopped trying to be creative in these situations and instead I follow a very strict formula. Here’s how to look totally hot in under 2 minutes…
This is a snap that my partner took on my way out the door on Saturday night. I’d been out all day on Saturday and had literally 2 mins to get ready. Not too shabby if I do say so myself…
1. Wear a black dress
Black is elegant, sophisticated and a total no brainer. I also never regret wearing black. You don’t need to worry about colour matching or clashing when wearing a black dress. You also don’t have to track down a flattering top to go with your favourite pants. Just chuck on your faithful LBD and be done with it.
2. Put on some lipstick
I adore a smoky eye but if I’m in a rush, it’s just not going to happen. Quickly touch up your base and concealer and pop on some super bright lipstick. You can even do this in the taxi on the way to your event.
3. Wear high heels
They make the world of difference when it comes to making you feel super glam. Have a pair of stand by comfortable black heels that you know you can last a few hours in.
4. Bed hair is your friend
Piling your hair in a messy up do is so much quicker than spending half an hour straightening it. Grab some bobby pins and just messily pin it up Courteney Love style.
5. Don’t over think it
So what if you’ve worn that dress and those shoes heaps of times? If you look and feel gorgeous in that outfit, it’s always going to be a winner.
