LIP SERVICE

ph: Le 21me Arrondissement | BellaSugar | Glamour | Wall Street Journal | PaperBlog | MAC | Clothes Over Carbs

First the neon eyes + now the statement lips! I'm slowly building up the confidence to try this out. I only use chapstick + haven't really worn lipstick since high school, so this would be a big jump. I keep buying bright shades, but haven't tried them out in public yet. The trick is wearing it with just a bit of mascara + nothing else. Here are some I've been testing...

+ NARS Lipstick in 'Heat Wave'
+ Yves Saint Laurent Rouge Pur Couture in 'Le Fuchsia'
+ NARS Pure Matte Lipstick in 'Carthage'
+ Bobbi Brown Lip Color in 'Neon Pink'
+ NARS Lipstick in 'Schiap'

LIPSTICK + EARRINGS

Vogue

Head over heels for the lip color + dangly earrings from Jason Wu's S/S 2012 show!
I haven't worn earrings this long in forever, but this has inspired me to give it a try.
I've been considering these from Max & Chloe, but also looking for a good silver pair.
