For some reason I am entirely incapable of wearing red lipstick. I love the way it looks, I have a beautiful tube of skin-tone suiting Chanel red and yet, total mental block. I can wear it out at night, especially since the clubs in Prague have a lot of fancy dress nights but during the day?Nothing. One of my little, silly aspirations for this autumn: to feel comfortable wearing red lipstick during the day as part of a casual outfit. I always feel like it dresses up any outfit I wear and makes it seem like I'm trying too hard. But now I'm all loaded up with inspiration:
Any suggestions on how to dress it down? Muted colors and baggy silhouettes it seems.
thanks dear, yours is awesome too!
ReplyDeleteabout the lipstick, I have a Chanel red one too but I do have the same problem, plus everbody is looking weird at me when I wear it. people here have some issues regarding red lipstick!
I think the best way to wear it is with black or contrasting colors:)
My issue with it seems to be that as soon as I put it on everyone assumes I'm dressed up for something special or somewhere else. Maybe that isn't the worst thing, nothing wrong with being a little overdressed. I'll try it out with black but still not sure if it'll make it out the door!
ReplyDeleteI have never been a red lipstick gal myself... too afraid of it ending up on my teeth!

I love red lipstick, you are absolutely right, it dresses up any outfit. Try it out with casual clothing and maybe it'll add that something extra where your outfit is lacking!
