Not your usual lipstick girl

I’ve been trying to pull off some sort of a proper red lip look for at least a couple of years now.
I tested several lipsticks, so many of them, all in different shades of reds. To be honest, it never worked. I felt like a clown or at least I felt like the whole world is looking at my mouth. It never made me feel comfortable so I always gave it up and went back to my lip glosses. After a while, I try again and again, and always break.
And then a small miracle happened (let’s keep proportions balanced – it’s just a lipstick) and I discovered Chanel lipsticks. Textures and packaging are two major advantages here, but the strongest advantage to me is the accuracy in colors.
This requires a short explanation: I’m a royal pain when it comes to colors. When I look for red, I mean red only. No touches of pink, orange or anything “interesting”. No! Just red please. And when you pick up a color from Chanel you can count on it – it’s exactly the color you meant to find.
For now, I’m in love with #31. It’s called Cambon and it’s definitely my favorite right now. Here it is:

I hope you’ll find your one too!

I’m loving the return of the nineties. It’s definitely my favorite decade in fashion at the moment. It was when the world of fashion discovered the beauty of minimalism, of simplicity and of clean prints, silhouettes and fabrics.

DVF was always too colorful and happy for me. This video shows that we are now in peace and that this winter will be wonderful, no matter how you choose to look at it :-)
