sumptous olive
hey everyone!
i got sumptous olive last xmas and i realized i've only worn it a few times!
i think that's because iw as sick of wearing it with a neutral colour + sumptous.
i'd like to give other combos a try before i officially declare that i hate it. i know this can be done because you lovelies have helped me with many other colours when i have lost hopes with them.
so what are your favourite combo to use with olive???

Re: sumptous olive
A deep eggplant color looks great with olive, olive doesn't always have to be paired with brown or bronze or camel!

Re: sumptous olive
I love Gorgeous Gold on the inner lid, Sumptuous Olive on the outer lid, Black Tied to darken my crease and outer corner. I highlight either with Nylon or Shroom depending on my mood.

Re: sumptous olive
Olive works well with midnight blue, black, or burgundy (wine shades) also.
