Orange Pop

February 17th, 2011



Revlon Orange Flip Lipstick, Zara Jacket, Haute Hippie Skirt, Hue Tights, Proenza Schouler Booties, gifted Mulberry Bag c/o my-wardrobe.com

There was a pretty drastic change in the weather this week, which means I finally got a chance to pull out some of my wintery pieces. I don’t own too many jackets, but this one from Zara, with its camel-colored fabric and leather sleeves, is one of my favorites.  Since I’ve been wearing so many natural tones lately (as seen here), I’ve been all about bright accents, and this orange lipstick is at the top of my list. My newest neutral addition is my Mulberry bag, that ties together any outfit and is roomy enough to hold a variety of miscellaneous items, including my umbrella, overstuffed wallet, a bottle of water and lots of random snacks.

    Love the lipstick! It’s close enough to red so that it isn’t overpowering, but it’s orangey enough to stand out.

    The lip color looks so great on you! Did you have to try about a million before you found the right one, or did you luck out and get it right the first time?

    I think a complexion as fair as mine would benefit from a bit of “guidance” in choosing the right color—there’s just nothing sexy about clown makeup!

    Off to Sephora I go!

    Have a great week!

    Loooove the orange-red lipstick! If you haven’t already, try “Heat Wave” by NARS. It’s a similar color with a semi-matte finish that lasts all day.

    Love the orange lipstick, but haven’t quite built up the courage to wear it myself (yet). I might try and work some bights into my make-up via eye shadow. P.s. I want that Zara coat! So so beautiful.

    Orange lipstick is my fave right now. I transitioned from a sheer red. My favorite color right now is Fruity Orange by Givenchi.

    I like that you’re experimenting with slightly edgier looks while still remaining true to your style. I am a sucker for any pieces with leather accents.

    I have to agree that lipstick is to die for. I was searching for an hue of orange as well and found that shade weeks ago.I ve been wearing it nonstop. You can check it out on my blog. By the way I love your blog and have been following for some time now. http://ragsandredbottoms.com/?p=53

    Who the heck can afford a bag like that? I mean, it’s nice enough, but, given this economy – homeless kids going to bed hungry – spending that kind of cash on a silly bag is morally disgusting.
