As spoken by the one and only Taylor Swift, red lips will forever and always be one of my favorite elegant and classic looks. It’s no wonder there are endless “red lip” quotes affirming the trend! With this summer bringing in bold colors and styles, we can’t forget to stay true to timeless looks too. Just because a red lip color isn’t new doesn’t mean it’s boring, as seen in this Fashionista’s cute and comfy summer look.
Incorporating color can be difficult at times—almost as difficult as it is to wear makeup during this summer heat. Regardless of this, when I saw this Fashionista strutting her stuff, I knew she would make for the perfect subject. A burst of deep red can work wonders for anyone trying to incorporate a little color without worrying about whether or not they will melt under the beating sun (and we’re not talking about being sun-burnt)! A bold lip color like this NYX extra creamy round lipstick in Chaos packs a huge punch and adds so much to an otherwise mostly neutral outfit.
This beauty babe pairs a knotted, denim button-down blouse with a flowy, black maxi skirt. And let’s not forget those strappy sandals that scream summertime and sunshine! Although her outfit is simple, she pairs it with an amazing statement necklace that manages to still keep all eyes on her rad lip color. The simplicity and classiness of her outfit makes it easy for her to incorporate her bold yet timeless red lip. Summer days call for putting on whatever makes you feel comfortable, and adding a deep lip color can do wonders for a plain outfit. Just look at our Fashionista! She topped off her ensemble with lightweight gold bangles and super cool peek-a-boo earrings.
What’s on the BEAUTY BAR? To complete this look, swipe on your favorite red lipstick, add a neutral eyeshadow that doesn’t take away from the boldness of your lips and apply minimal eyeliner and mascara! This will enhance any dull outfit and add a dose of much needed color.
