Her expression is one of quiet, regal wonder.[THE BEAUTY LOOK: MIDNIGHT GLAMOUR]Eyes: Deep navy-blue kohl liner blended into a soft, smokey haze with silver "stardust" shimmer on the inner corners.Lips: A soft, muted rose-pink to keep the focus on the dark intensity of the gown and the sapphire.Complexion: Luminous, "moonlight" skin with a subtle silver-toned highlight on the cheekbones.[COUTURE: THE CAROLINA HERRERA BALLGOWN]The Fabric: A Midnight Blue tulle-paneled ballgown.
