how to wear red lipstick: 3 ways!

One of the hottest trends that I have really fallen for lately is lipstick.  So simple right? I mean, yes one tube can cost upwards of $25 - BUT lipstick makes me feel REALLY glamorous and a tube lasts for literally ever (at least for me...) so "cost per wear" is very low.  There are also some really great lipsticks on the market for much cheaper too.  Depending on what you like/love and what your budget is.

As the temps begin to warm (word: it's supposed to be in the 70's here all week, wha? I know!) I like to simplify my outfits - think jeans and a tee or shorts and a tank - but still keep outfits fun and fresh.  Think of lipstick as a fun accessory to your daily outfit - if you don't already!  And red lipstick is so cool these days... here is how to wear red lipstick for all us average but fabulous gals!

Aren't these simple outfits completely amped up with just a little red lipstick!?!?  By the way... the NARS is my personal favorite for a red lip - but the two other colors were recommended by readers over the winter in the comments of this blog post - so you gals pretty much chose these colors!  Way to go!
