Lipstick Jungle

May 6th, 2009

Have you ever seen someone wear something and it looks so utterly fabulous on them that you simply must try it for yourself?

Zara Top, H&M Studded Skirt, Anthropologie Necklace, F21 Watch and Heels, Essie ‘Punchy Pink’ Polish, MAC Ruby Woo Lipstick,  Gryson Bag

Here is my inspiration.

Naomi, of the amazing blog, Rockstar Diaries, is almost always wearing shades of red on her lips and somehow makes it look glamorous and casual all at the same time (I dare you not to become completely addicted to her blog).  So, for my dinner date the other night, I threw some on.  Besides the smudges all around my chin (oh and the fact that I looked like Ronald McDonald after my first bite of salad), it immediately transformed my entire look and attitude.  At least for a night.

    I’ve been planing to buy the Ruby Woo lipstick myself and I’m glad to see it working so well in action.
    Love the blog, I’m sure I’ll be back ;)

    It looks gorgeous on you. I love the color, but I feel like they look too harsh on me. I will have to gain a little more confidence before I stray from my mauves.
