Want It Wednesday: National Lipstick Day

National Lipstick Day





Hello hello and happy Wednesday!

As yesterday was National Lipstick Day, I wanted to theme this week's #WantItWednesday around some beautifully unnatural lippies I've been dying for.

On the top left is a lipstick called Indigo Bridge from Portland Black Lipstick Co. I've mentioned this company before when I swatched my favorite fall lip colors here. These colors are highly pigmented and are completely natural. For a natural product that makes unnatural colors, the color payoff is amazing. Definitely a brand worth checking out. Some of their "unnatural" shades actually fit a more safer makeup style depending on the skin tone. While the website does not have actual swatches with the product, you can find tons of swatches from bloggers online.

The next color is from Lime Crime Makeup and is called Serpentina. This beautifully metallic green make me think of Medusa. This vegan and cruelty free brand is known for the amazing breadth of colors they provide as well as their long lasting velvetines, which happens to be my next lip color of choice.

While this last lip color is not a lipstick per-say, it comes in a tube like a gloss and dries just like a lipstick. This color is reminiscent of the Undead Red that I have from Portland Black Lipstick Co, but it has more brown undertones. The matte look of this lip is to die for, and the only reason I've held off on getting it is because even more color options will be available soon. A girl needs to weigh her options!

Dreaming of Warmer Weather: Thailand Edition











Gap denim button down, Loft camisole in Lush Teal, drop waist pants from Thailand, H&M heels - seen here

Let me start off by apologizing for being MIA. The end of holiday season is rough working in retail and I was sent to a location to help close it down which has made my schedule a bit busier. I have to say that I am beyond happy to be back and look forward to working on tons of blog posts for you guys!

As some of you may know, currently in the Northeast we're experiencing some pretty cold weather. While I'm usually just as bundled up as the rest, if not more so, I couldn't resist but to do a post about these absolutely amazing drop waist pants that my friends bought for me in Thailand. If I can't be somewhere that's warm, I can certainly day dream about it!

Seriously, how cool is this print?! I paired these funky pants with a basic blue-green camisole, and a denim button down that I tied to show off the high waist on the pants. I threw on my cheetah print wedges because why not, it never hurts to experiment with how prints look together. And since I'm dreaming of warmer weather I just had to throw on this bubble gum pink lip by Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics called "Anime".

Hope you like the look! To those of you in colder weather, stay warm! And happy new year to you all!

Thanks for reading<3
