Look of the Day: Exaggerated Cat Eye
Amanda Seyfried recently walked the red carpet at the premiere of the much anticipated Les Mis doing an exaggerated, dramatic, thick lined cat eye (below, right) and I was instantly in love. As the party season approaches, I'm labelling this exaggerated cat eye as the holiday look to copy!

With the wings drawing all the attention to her green eyes, she played it neutral with a pinky, coral lip. Last year, Amanda pulled off a similar look but with more shadow (left). Equally as sexy, but I think the matte black makes a more modern statement and takes it to a chicer level.
Designers seem to be on the same wave length as Ms. Seyfried. Lanvin and Moschino both did their unique takes on the exaggerated cat eye:
