Lippies: Wine/Plum Colors

Let me apologize! I feel like all I have been posting about lately are dark lippies! See here and here. But I cannot get enough of them. To make matters worse my obsession became deeper once I saw this picture.

Rih Rih made my heart skip a couple of beats! Not only the lips but the whole look is sick. Her eyebrows, makeup and hair are all a perfect combo. It kind of looks like she had 20 minutes to get ready and pulled it off! 

You know how that is ladies?? You get a quick "let's go to brunch/movie/mall run" and you throw things together hit your face with a quick beat and it WORKS!! Yes GOD!!!! 

Anywho back to the lippie...

I posted the above pic yesterday and one of my followers said suggested this color was "Train Bleu" by NARS. "Train Bleu" is a matte deep plum. It looks a tad lighter that what Rihanna has on but that may be because of several different reasons. One may be the picture has been filtered or the lipstick thickly applied. Either way I trusted my followers suggestion and purchased it. I cannot wait until it gets here! 

The color that Rihanna has on honestly reminds me of "Boyfriend Stealer" from MAC's Archie collection which came out two years ago. The only difference is the color she has on is matte. If she is wearing Boyfriend Stealer she could have achieved  the matte look by blotting with powder (excellent tip for turning any glossy lipstick to matte! click here)

Definitely a lot of choices to achieve this amazing look! If you have any suggestions of what this lip color is please leave it below.

Weekend Attire: Saturday Fit

Ahhh so let me tell you a little about my weekend madness (yes this is every weekend)

I wake up early run errands, attend any functions that may be going on with friends or family then I go to work. I have a weekend gig that I have had for years (9 to be exact)! So this Saturday was a typical one! I attended a high school football game and ran some errands with the Mister... It has been unusually warm but I decided not to play myself and act like it was STILL FALL even though it felt like July. I threw on a H&M white button down shirt. I love the way this fits! It's the only white shirt I think you can wear wrinkled. It's semi see through so I always rock it with a nude colored bra.

I put on my American Eagle jeans which I happen to love right now. My BCBGENERATION summer sandals. These shoes are beyond adorable but when I first purchased them they were HELLA uncomfortable but,like the true trooper I am, I wore them until they wore in! Vintage Fendi bag I purchased on eBay! I decided to put on my face today. I pulled out MAC's Betty Bright from the Archie collection. Even though I swooned over this lippie almost two years ago today is the first time I wore it. I LOVE LOVE LOVE IT. Oh and last but not least my PRADA Poeme sunnies (Mister's least favorite in my collection). So that pretty much sums up my day look. 

And kudos to me for not spilling anything on my white shirt because I am KNOWN for that! 

After my errands I came home took a nap and switched it up for the night gig. Again, it's unseasonably warm but I decided to throw on my Sweater from the Prabal Gurung for Target collection with the same jeans and my neon shoes from the same collection with a dark lippie. I went with Boyfriend Stealer also from MAC's Archie collection. Lastly, my pilot bag! I LOVE this bag. I have been rocking pilot bags for about 8 years. You can find them any Army Navy store for roughly $30 cheap and they last forever. 

I seriously doubt SUNDAY's fit will be anything to blog about. It's strictly cleaning and laundry and most importantly football!
