The Right Way To Wear Red


Classic red makes such a statement.  It's vintage and timeless.  When I see red lips or nails on someone, it just makes me swoon.  Although I often wear the red nails, I can't pull off the lips.  Do you wear red on your lips or nails?  What red is your favorite?







Hope you have a fantastic Thursday and remember to enter my Back To School Giveaway where you can win a $50 gift card to Victoria's Secret!

I have yet to find the perfect shade of red lipstick for myself...

It's my mission this fall to conquer the red lip!

I'm a huge fan of red lips! I finally found the perfect shade when I was in New York! So classic!

I'm pretty sure I'd look like a clown if I attempted the red lips! But I love them on everyone else! :)

I wore red lipstick back in the day when dark colors were in. I wish more people would start to appreciate the freshness and drama of it. Maybe now that fall is almost here...

I love red nails but I have such a hard time finding a good red lipstick.

I adore red lips and nails! For me it is all about Heatwave by NARS...

I love Essie's Russian Roulette and I used to wear Revlon's Cherries in the Snow I think it was called when I was younger. I'm much more about red nails and a nude lip on myself, but I do love red lips on others.

I am loving Essie's Forever Yummy right now! I every time I wear it on short nails, I feel like I'm right out of the 40's! It's such a nice, classic red. On my lips, I tend to stick to the pinks more than the reds. I'm still on the hunt for that perfect blueish red that would work on my skin tone! Any suggestions? I've heard MAC has a wonderful matte line of lipsticks!

I love red nail polish...I tend to gravitate to a warm red rather than a red with a blue undertone. I find red polish and lipstick a classic.

Oooooo...red is definitely a hard color to pull off - and I am not one of those folks who does it well. Alas...guess I will stick with pink :)
