Sephora lipstick in Bewtich Me

Having seen all the dark, vampy lips on the Givency FW 12/13 runway recently, it only gave me more reasons to further cultivate my obsession with dark lipsticks. What I have on is actually a dark purple with a creamy consistency, I cannot wait to try other shades like dark cherry and grey-brown. My makeup was inspired by the Skyfall movie - I absolutely love how stunning Sévérine looked at the Casino in her lace dress. Of course, it is more realistic to keep the eye makeup minimum during the day. If you need help creating a look like this, I recommend watching this video tutorial!

Oxblood is undeniably the colour to wear for the year-end holidays because it looks so gorgeous on everybody! I paired a sheer blouse with a leather cardigan/jacket. I honestly think this jacket is perfect -  with the majority being made faux leather and the rest jersey cotton, it's easy to wear in humid weather. It also has draping details on the front and a cropped back. Probably one of the best mixed-fabric leather jackets I have seen in a long time.
