Sometimes all you need to jazz up neutral outfit is a really good lip color. I am completely hooked on Nars Lip Crayons, and the beauty product whore in me is on a mission to acquire one in every color. It would be sort of like a Crayola Big Box (OMG, remember those), for the makeup obsessed.

For more lips, liner, hair, etc. follow my beauty board on Pinterest! ♥

    Woah I am in love with these photos! You look do fierce in the first one. Definitely like the dark lip. Something like that can always change the vibe of an outfit. xoxo

    I have the same obsession! I lovvvve Nars’ lip crayon — recently bought it in Mexican Rose but need more!! Your color might be my next choice.

    PS have the same dress (love that it was from F21) and I love how you styled it with so many different patterns! xo

    That’s it – the perfect lip color! I swear I’ve been looking for that color for ages and it’s never seemed right, but I LOVE this one.

    And at Nordstrom, I can use my points! Perfect.

    Oh my gosh, I am a sucker for cute tote bags. It’s my favorite type of bag since all I have to do is just throw my essentials in it and I’m good to go. I love the graphics on it!

    Laura, you are stunning in these photos!! Those lips are killer! I’m dying to try out a darker lip for fall so I can’t wait to check out the NARS lip crayons!

    Thanks so much, Katie! You are too sweet. :) Definitely try our the Nars Crayons – I also love “Damned” if you are looking for an even darker shade.
