As for beauty she teamed her brown gown with an elegant smokey eye in neutral brown tones to compliment the dress, and finished with an elegant lipstick which matched her skin tone. The effect kept all the focus on her piercing blue eyes. As for her manicure she opted for deep brown-black which modernised the look.
