Hey there, going to a wedding tomorrow and am wearing a purple dress with a greyish accent. Usually I would do a gold eye with purple but with the grey accent I was thinking purple and silver smokey look...thoughts? And if I go with that, what colour lipstick?? Thanks :)...feel free to give other suggestions please.

Hi, I wore a purple dress to a wedding about 4 years ago. I have blonde hair and blue eyes, I went for the smokey eye using 3 shades of brown, from a light overall highlight to a darker color in the crease to an even darker color just in the corners. So really just a smokey eye and those colors work best with my complexion and eye color. I wore a nude color lipstick, I would not go for any type of colored lipstick with a purple dress. I think most colors would clash with the purple dress, a nude color lipstick would be perfect. Have the focus on your eyes and a neutral nude lip color. That is my advice for what would work best with a purple dress. Hope that has been of some help :)
