Where does SHERRY BERRY get her inspiration from??

I always get asked the same question:

"Where does your inspiration come from?"

"Color has taken possession of me,,no longer do I have to chase after it. I know that it has hold of me forever. Color and I are one. I am a painter." --- Paul Klee Quotes

Received this amazing book as my Christmas present,,Audrey Hepburn Fashionista

i LOVE ELLE, ALLURE, VOGUE, FASHION, Marie Claire, Harper's Bazaar, GLAMOUR and VMAGAZINE

Christian Dior Couture

Honestly, I can be inspired easily by anything I see at anytime anywhere! That's why I like to bring a digital camera with me wherever I go and capture all the beautiful things, people and views I see. One of my biggest hobbies is making 'Makeup and Fashion' Scrapbooks. Speaking of that, I spend around $50-60 CAD on just beauty and fashion magazines monthly, and always have so much fun adding the new tear sheets to my scrapbooks & binders and reviewing those older tear sheets helps with stimulating my creativity at the same time. Let me share this with you: you can always learn what you've learned, in a new way. I also like to keep myself motivated by watching You Tube videos and reading blogs. What is important is to keep learning, to enjoy the challenge!

Making a photograph is a collaborative effort.

"As the makeup artist, you are part of a team that includes the photographer, the stylist, the hair stylist, the dresser, and the editor if it is a magazine shoot. Your job is to be true to your own style, yet be open; to understand requirements of the stylist, editor, and a model; and to create a makeup that works." --- Bobbi Brown

I have a LOVE affair with FEDORA hats!! :)

Anyone who knows me well,,they know I am obsessed with fedora hats!! LOL,, I buy one almost every time when I go shopping. The fedora hat used to be the most popular fashion accessory for men,,but women have adopted the style.

A fedora hat can really top off an outfit to give your look that extra something special that makes you stand out as you make a style choice that is equally bold and classic. When looking for that perfect fedora for your head, make sure you find one that fits your personality and sense of style and frames your face perfectly.

ORANGE IS THE NEW RED!!

Welcome to the color world! Do you know Orange is the new Red ?!?!

Beauty follows fashion!! My favorite orange lipstick: MAKE UP FOR EVER Rouge Artist Intense #40. It gives you the true orange color. LOVE the pigment! non-drying and stay put!! In order to perfect a lip shape, line the lips with MAKE UP FOR EVER Aqua Lip 17C ! KAT VON D lipstick "a-go-go" is very similar to the #40.

To achieve the pout like the picture below: Try MAKE UP FOR EVER Aqua Cream #10 beautiful orange with a little bit metallic gold color which is waterproof,, and then apply the clear Glossy Full or LAB SHINE Diamond Collection D20
