Plummy lips

I loved the dark plum lips and colourful mohicans at the Fendi aw13 show! 

Unfortunately I can't copy the awesome hair or afford the incredible clothes but I did have a dark lips day :-) 

I like that the plum lips are set against a neutral, bare face with a lick of mascara and defined brows- perfect to offset the gothic look of the lippie. And perfect for work as not too heavy. 

I used my new sephora lipstick in bewitch me and although I loved the colour and blotted and reapplied a few times this lipstick does not last. I ended up wiping it off half way through the day as I can't sit at work and continually reapply, not convenient and not cool! Even if I wasn't doing anything (not talking drinking eating etc) this just seemed to disintegrate at the corners :-( Next time I'll use a lip liner underneath to see if that makes it last longer than a few minutes... 

Anyway plum lips are a big trend for autumn winter, it ties into a 90s grunge reasurgence where a dark lip was a staple. Enjoy experimenting!
