coral lips.

vintage blouse // vintage leather pants I had hemmed to be shorts // garage sale belt find // forever21 owl ring // vintage clogs


I recently found this amazing vintage blouse when I was sourcing for next month's stock. I fell in love with it and couldn't bear to part with it.

I am slowly gaining a collection of lipsticks. About four months ago i bought my very first lipstick -- i know, i'm a late bloomer. It started with a classic red lipstick from maybelline. Now the collection includes matte baby pinks, deep berries, classic nudes, soft peaches and bright corals -- which i am wearing the photos above called 'coral crush' from maybelline colorsensational line.

I love wearing very little makeup -- maybe only concealer, mascara and blush -- and a bright lipstick color! I love the contrast between my fair skin and the vibrant colors. I truly enjoy playing with my look, but as i grow up i feel the desire to find my signature look and i'm thinking the perfect shade of lipstick will be key. So the hunt begins.

Thanks for all your lovely comments!

Maddy, i would suggest Maybelline or Revlon's Matte collection. They have some amazing colors, perfect for summer!

I love coral lipstick. I love the way your blouse balances out the shorts in this outfit.
