Living in a small town can either make you uber comfortable or keep you on the fritz. Rebecca and Enid are experiencing the latter. Ghostworld is written and illustrated by Daniel Clowes and the comic delves into the lives of two american teens in a small town. The Comic gave way to a movie in 2001 of the same name and starred Scarlett Johannsson as Rebecca and Thora Burch as Enid.  All I have to say is – Rent it!

Rebecca is a blossoming young woman who is interested in boys, etc and is starting to appreciate the finer things in life- something tells me Smith’s Rosebud Salvve light scent can works its way through her life. Where as Enid is down to have fun and mischief- judging by her greenish tinted lips- MAC Spanish Fly is probably her lippie of choice.

Kathryn Finney- The Budget Fashionista

I had the pleasure of meeting Kathryn at an event at the Soho Grand here in NYC! After the Ladies Lotto Panel, I had to introduce myself  and inquire about her lipstick hue.

She is the Queen of budget friendly chic! back when everyone was going nutzo over the Dior Saddle Bag and Juicy Track suits, in 2003 she was one of the first official bloggers and she started sharing her cost-friendly shopping tricks on Thebudgetfashionista.com.

Kathryn delightfully indulged in her lipstick color- its  MAC’s Cyber, described as an ” intense blackish purple”. She also tipped us off and let us know that Black Radiance has a similar lipstick hue.

We’ve missed you this season, but am glad that you have taken a warm embrace to Eggplant, my dear.

Bordeaux awaits

From Allure’s September issue- Sessilee Lopez welcomes fall wearing Cover Girl’s Queen Collection Vibrant Hue Bordeaux color lipstick.

Violetta @ Vena Cava

I’m  a bit behind on the NY fashion week looks as it was just last week and the photos for the Milan shows- MILAN were just posted.

I’m still in lurve with the violet lippies, actually, I’m never gettting over it.

Catching up on London FW, then Milan and for the Grand RTW FInally PARIS!

Les Noirs de Chanel

What’s Violet + Noir? Chanel’s Vendetta Nail polish.

This collection defines what I would like to capture this fall! Bad Ass lips and no BS eyes to go with my moto-leggings and thrashed boots that took a beating from Paris in 2007.

Glitter, Sparkle, Werk!-Santos Party House: Refinery 29 Party, Sept 17, 2009Of Montreal!Of Montreal!

Of Montreal!

Solange @ Refinery 29's Of Montreal Party

Wrapping up NYFW- Refinery 29, Gilt and Fuse threw a bash at Santos Party House with Of Montreal performing. While waiting for “Moonage Daydream” was a no-go as Solange Knowles took to the stage to perform “Heatwave”.

Prior to her set, she enjoyed getting down to OM like the best of us but I couldn’t help but admire her headpiece and her lipstick color. A stark violet/purple mass that was bold, beautiful and very wearable! Looks like MAC’s Night Niolet Mattene with a deeper shade mixed.

 ”Girl, you so Violet” was something I would have said if I could muster words at this point- I was too concerned with my own fun!

So Grape!

Experimenting with some recently acquired products and some oldies but goodies- I’m pleased to present a Grape lip look for fall!
