Going to military ball Thursday, can I get suggestions on how to do my makeup/hair for this look? :)

I wouldn't do a dark smokey eye because it will make it look halloween-ish. I would suggest using a champaign coloured eye shadow with simple black winged eyeliner and mascara with a neutral or very soft pink lip. I love that dress!!

I can't really tell how your makeup looks in this picture, but I think something very similar to this would look great. Your face looks very natural and beautiful but not unpolished. I think Shauna's suggestion of a light shimmery eye is a good one. If you have the Naked palette, try Sin all over the lid with Half Baked in the outer corner and Naked blended up into the crease and Virgin for your brow/inner corner highlight. For lips, again I agree with Shauna-- Rimmel's Kate Moss in 08 is a really pretty neutral brown-based pink that will help pull your look together without being overpowering. Loose waves or curls would be a cute hairstyle, and I think doing half up with a bit of a poof would compliment your face shape and the overall look. No matter what you do, you're going to look beautiful! Have an amazing time!

I love the half up and half down curly hairstyle, it would really suit you.

Thanks so much Shauna and Courtney! I will definitely do just those things! Any suggestions for those colors you suggested, ladies? Such as pretty palettes and lipsticks? I was thinking of trying a Revlon Lip Butter for this look but I don't know which color I would get...haha!

And thank you Ashley!! :)

The naked palette would be great for this look. In Urban Decay I would suggest you check out "sin" or "sellout" both are really nice champagne colours. For something cheaper I would check out Sephora brand eyeshadows. I like the one called "#48 Faux Fur" it's a cute taupe/champagne colour. And I LOVE Revlon lip butters, definitely get one!! The only thing is they tend to wear off after a couple hours so you will have to re-apply it. For you I would suggest "Creme Brule" or "Peach Parfait".

Also Too Faced "Workdays To Weekends Perfect Eyes Set" looks really great but it's kind of expensive, but you get a nice variety of eyeshadows, mascara, and brushes. Too-faced palettes in general would be good for this look because they have lots of cute neutral eyeshadows.
