Unicorns, Mermaids, and Metallic Makeup Dominate Summer
Unicorns, mermaids, and metallic makeup are most definitely trends you’ll see more of this Spring and into Summer 2017. And yes, they’ll be plenty of highlighter as well. Mermaids fit right in here as I’m currently working myself through watching The Starry Night, The Starry Sea which is a Chinese drama about a girl who falls in love with a merman prince. Um, hello reverse Little Mermaid! Well, not quite. You see Ju Lan, our handsome merman, is actually in pursuit of a magical pearl that will prolong his life. He believes that our heroine’s grandfather has it. Needless to say the two end up falling in love along the way because ya know, it’s a drama, what’s a drama without romance right?
If mermen aren’t your thing you can always turn to The Legend of the Blue Sea which has a more traditional tale of a fisherman that captures a mermaid. No, not like creepy Night Gallery Lindemann’s Catch (you might want to look that one up and watch it), but more like Tom Hanks slash Daryl Hannah mermaid saves boy from drowning type with future magical elements involved. Added bonus Lee Min-ho sans the perm.
I can’t say I’ve ever dreams of being whisked away by a merman but I’ve always been terribly fascinated with mermaids in general. As for unicorns? Well, let’s just say I voted Team Tim Curry in Legend.
But what about a dose of unicorns and mermaids in my makeup?
Well…
