While the runways at New York Fashion Week mark the first wave of hair and makeup trends to come, it s front-row regulars like Selena Gomez who are setting the bar on state-of-the-art, do-it-right-now beauty. And if Instagram s brightest star has anything to do with it, it s time to dig out your teasing comb and rediscover pastel lipstick.

In town for the shows, the Fetish singer hit a party in Manhattan last night with a fresh spin on the one decade that no starlet can resist: The sixties. Her swingy powder pink minidress announced that a bit of sartorial nostalgia is right on time, a sentiment that was taken to the next level with an updated twist on classic Brigitte Bardot-inspired beauty. A fluttery row of false lashes, deftly coated with black mascara on the top and bottom lids, were further defined with a softly blended stroke of kohl in lieu of a crisp liquid feline flick. A dab of seashell pink gloss offered a high-shine answer to powdery nude lipstick, just as her high-volume hair nodded to the classic bouffant while also making the case for just a single blast of hairspray. Now that s how to make a retro look feel modern all over again.
