purple rain

 

Lately I've been noticing purple lips in ads and on the runways. Let's try them, shall we?

Style notes for purple lips: 

Make sure you skin isn't too pale.  Use a bronzer or brownish blush so you don't.  You don't want to look like a corpse.

 

Keep your eye makeup minimal — you don't want your eyes and lips competing with each other.

To rock my berry lips, I'm wearing these amazing earrings by a fellow Texas girl, Sarah Briggs.

 
Check out her website and her shop on etsy.  She has gorgeous jewelry for very reasonable prices.
