Get the look: Shining star

Model and actor Aaminah Sheikh was recently spotted looking sizzling at the red carpet of the Geo Tarang Awards. She never fails to impress us with her acting or style, and continued to do so as she glowed from head to toe at the event. Here’s how you can mimic her look.

Hair



We love the up-do! Aaminah styled her hair in a high bun which started with a braid on the front.

To get a similar look, you can take the front half of your hair and French braid it, while teasing the rest and arranging it in a high bun.

MAKE-UP



Aaminah knew how to keep it simple yet elegant.

To get a similar natural glow, use Mac bronzer (Rs2,000). For beautifully enhanced eyes like hers, apply a heavy Mac eyeliner (Rs1,200) and finish off with Maybelline Colossal Volum Express mascara (Rs1,200).

Since the eyes are dramatic, use a nude colour lipstick to balance it out. We recommend Estee Lauder’s Modern Mercury Nude Velvet (Rs1,000).

OUTFIT



Pakistani diva Aaminah is wearing designer Shehla Chatoor’s Goddess gown.

Order your own or rummage through the racks at high-street stores.


A cost-effective way to get something similar is to show your creative side and get it tailored yourself.

ACCESSORIES



The snake-like gold neck piece is a part of Aaminah’s dress.

However, you can also get something similar from Mango or Accessorize (Rs2,500).

If you don’t already own a pair of gold ball earrings, look through a local jewelry store for a decent pair (Rs500).

We love the glittery-gold clutch Aaminah’s holding.

You can get something similar at local shoe stores or Accessorize which can range from Rs1,800 to Rs4,000 .

SHOES



Matching her accessories, Aaminah opted for knee-high strappy heels which doubled her sexiness.

You might have trouble finding these particular ones but, once you spot them, make sure you buy them. It’s a must-have for dresses with high-slits. Good luck!
