I have to say that i have always had a soft spot for Red lipstick. I think Red was the 1st colour lipstick i ever wore as my mum wore it all the time so when i was playing dress up as a little girl i would smudge a big stripe of lippy on and pout in the mirror ha. That coupled with my mums high heels i would try and walk like a lady and sometimes sing into the hairbrush thinking i looked like a diva.
Anyway today I'm pretty much the same. I love high heels, the higher the better and i still have a love for red lipstick. The brighter and more intense the better.
so here's how i wore it yesterday. I was only going shopping but hey who cares:
I am wearing Estee Lauder lipstick in Pure Colour Red Hot.
I love this lipstick it's so moisturising and creamy and it lasts really well on the lips even with eating and drinking.
I added some wispy false lashes and kept the eyes simple with MAC naked lunch all over the lid and a touch of satin taupe in the crease line. Clinique liquid liner in black on the top.
I kept my outfit casual because as much as i love my heels, shopping needs comfy shoes and it was cold so uggs win the battle for comfort I'm afraid.
This last shot is a little blurry but i still love it as it captures my little man laughing with me.
I have to say though my husband and my friend did look at me a little strange when they saw me wearing this lip colour although nether of them said anything.
