BLACK CHERRY
I bought this lipstick ages ago with aspirations of wearing it with all white dresses and outfits, but never really got around to it. I remember the first time my sister saw me wear it she kinda jumped back in fear/shock/revulsion. Anyways, shock value aside, I really really love this Revlon lipstick! It’s kinda sheer so I have to layer on 3-4 layers, but it’s totally wearable as an every day shade if just slicked on once. Speaking of white dresses, wouldn’t my hair and lipstick look AMAZING with one of those Rodarte ghost bride gowns? Even thinking of them again are giving me deep chills down my spine <shudder>.
I should probably shoot this outside with stockings or something because it’s really what I am feeling right now. I’ve been wearing my hair like this way too much. It’s so easy and whimsical!
Wearing vintage night gown, vintage leopard faux fur vest, Zara platform sandals, La Dama knitted rosary

Hey Vanessa,
Your hair is usually down, but I’m glad you surprised us. It looks great. You should put your hair up more often. You have one of those frames where any hairstyle will do. Loving the rouge lipstick too. Oh and Thanks for the advice on faux fur coats @ H&M. I will be on the hunt. Will let you know what I end up with!

Goorgeous! The hair and make up is so pefect for Rodarte.
I’m feeling you on the lipstick there, we have very similar colouring and whenever I go a little bolder with in the lipstick I have a friend who tells me asians can’t do lipstick without looking like a clown, and I say she’s just jealous of our perfect natural tan.

I love your website! I’ve been following it for a while now. Great choice in color on the lipstick — it suits you. I was wondering if you could do a tutorial on your hair. I’ve been trying to achieve it for quite some time, so it would be great if you write an entry on it.
Looking forward to your future posts

You look amazing! Like an old screen siren mixed with milk maid mixed with an olsen (the fur vest rocks, and yes, that is a compliment). I think your style rocks. Forgot to bookmark your blog when I changed jobs and have spend last 2 weeks trying to find you again – glad I did.
