Day: Orange you glad?

     I love lipstick. When I was younger I remember sneaking into my moms makeup bag and trying on all her different shades and stealing the ones I liked to put on when dressing up in my room. It wasn't until prom season in high school that I was bold enough to wear red lipstick out. After that I started wearing it out at night and I would get tons of complements. I read an article from Glamour about beauty tips from women around the world.

“Always wear lipstick,” says Terry de Gunzburg, French makeup artist and creator of By Terry. “French women do not wear a lot of lip gloss; they favor lipstick, often red, and never leave their apartments without it.”

This is a picture of my at this year's Fourth of July!

    I have red, maroon, light pink, shimmery pink, and nude shades of lipstick. I especially love Covergirl and Revlon's lip stains! However, I was reading Cupcakes and Cashmere's blog under 'Favorites' and she listed Revlon's Moon Drops Moisture Creme Lipstick in Orange Flip as one of her favorite colors. 

      It is simply an awesome color and the texture is smooth and creamy but stays on all day! I tested it out today - matched my belt!

feathered headband - The Best of Everything; stripped top - H&M; orange belt - Jcrew; urban renewal cuffed Levi's denim shorts - Urban Outfitters; bag - Antique Mall; socks and shoes - my mom's closet ;)

But since these photo's didn't do the lipstick justice I snapped a few photos!

 I thought my lips were a good comparison to Edwardo's beak (the name of my iPhone cover... yes, I name my phones. It's a talent)
