Posted by , on July 27, 2010 at 7:57 pm

Dressing up for fall means casting those flip flops aside for something a bit more polished. On the beauty side of things, try embracing the metallic trend. The gorgeous sheen is the perfect compliment to fall’s knits and sheer pieces alike. Copper eyes were seen on the runways of Alexander Wang, Proenza Schouler and DKNY, and after eying the models who strutted their stuff, we went to celebrity makeup artist Jackie Gomez to show us how to get the look ourselves.

Follow the makeup lesson below to get a gorgeous smokey copper eye for yourself!
