The Seven Deadly Sins & Heavenly Virtues: Lust & Chastity Inspired


 This is the beginning of my second series and it will kick off with Lust and Chastity as they are opposites.
Lust - an inordinate craving for the pleasures of the body or for fame and money. 

I chose a very dark red/black look for this as red is usually the colour of lust and love. I coupled this with black to highlight the fact that this is one of the deadly sins. 









Chastity: Courage and boldness. Embracing of moral wholesomeness and achieving purity of thought through education and betterment. 

I chose a wing to highlight chastity as the idea of purity can be seen as angelic so I thought I would capture the look this way. Using a baby blue eye shadow, I gave colour to a very plain look and I also wanted to achieve dimension.



This look was so much fun! It felt like I was doing a look for heaven and hell which is also a very interesting concept.
