Earth Toned

December 10, 2012

Lately, it seems, I’ve been on a bit of a red-lip kick. I love the way it brightens up the face and creates contrast and intensity. It’s also a great way to add a fail-safe pop of colour to an otherwise neutral outfit, like this earth toned one that I wore to stroll around Gastown recently. Happy Monday!
Wearing: J.Crew sweater (love this boys’ version), Zara vest, Club Monaco skirt, H&M shoes, Alex & Ani, bfrend and Indian bangles, Vince Camuto bag

    So in love with your bag – I ordered one in black and can’t wait for it to arrive. I hope you’ll do bag reviews at some point!

    I love it! I wish I could wear red lipstick,but because I’m heavier on the eyeshadow then I like to stay lighter on the lips. Your pictures are so inspiring!

    Love the earthy tones, Jen! I kind of wish I had bought the brown version of the CM skirt that I’ve noticed a bunch of you girls have (Alex and Melissa too, I think) but instead I bought the pink/gold. I’ll have to wear it more… I really do like the shape!

    You always look so chic Jen. I’ve also been loving a bold red lip to add that extra ‘something’ to any outfit! So glad to hear that the event went well yesterday, I wish I could’ve made it.

    You pull off a red lip SO well, Jen! It’s gorgeous on you! I was just thinking the other day that I need a new red… mine never seems to show in photos? It’s not super opaque, so perhaps that’s the issue. Either way, yours always POP and look so amazing! Love it with the neutrals!

    I always feel like girls who always wear red lips must have a lot of dedication–if you put it on in the morning, you better be ready to keep re-applying!

    It definitely completes the look 🙂

    I think you are officially the faux fur vest Queen in my books! You wear them so well and red lips are always perfect. Do you only use the MAC Brick lip pencil by itself?
