Red Lipstick. Red Lipstick is one of my biggest dilemmas. I love it on everybody else but me. Apparently, there's a shade for everyone. I guess I haven't looked hard enough but each time I put on red lipstick, I end up wiping it off and going with my colours: deep purples, wines, burgundies. I don't know what it is about red but it frightens me a little and at risk of sounding funny, red is a colour that I think definitely suits light skin better. For darker skin, I think purple is the colour.

I originally wore my go-to lip formula: Rebel by Mac with Nightmoth lipliner but decided last minute to be brave. As it turns out, red lipstick looks MUCH better on me with my sunglasses on= perfect safety net.

My top is two things that I thought were over: Plunge Strapless, and Peplum. But as with comfort, Over, is a state of mind, right?

      Hey Sophie,

      Thank you! So it’s a pair of black heels and then a gold chain anklet. Try the black heels above and refresh this link a couple times a day: http://bit.ly/18zqWga it seems to always come back in stock a few times a day.
