Would You Wednesday: Like Fine Wine

wine lips fall 2012Red lips have reigned supreme for the last few seasons, but this fall, crimson goes a bit goth.  Fire engine red gets a bit deeper and takes on the tone of dark berries and plum wine.  Not only are apparel and accessories in the shade of fermented grapes going to be all the rage for fall, but makeup trends follow suit.  From lips to fingertips, it seems we’ll be opting for shades of deep red and burgundy.

like fine wineEllis Faas Creamy Lips in Deep Plum Wine, $35, Too Faced La Creme in Divine Wine, $21, NARS Pure Matte Lipstick in Volga, $25, Sue Devitt Balanced Matte Lipstick in Australian Bight, $20, Sunday Riley Modern Lip Color in Wine Stain, $32

It would appear celebrities and fashion addicts alike have already taken to this trend, but will you be swapping out cherry for grape?

And yes, as a matter of fact, I am drinking a glass of red while I write.  For inspiration purposes, of course.

How To Tuesday: French Braid Avec Moi
Written by: WhyDid | How To Tuesday,Vlog

girl with mustacheSure, we’ve covered the very trendy fishtail braid, but how about getting back to basics?  Remember your go-to hairstyle circa 5th grade?  The French braid?  While at that time your mom was probably kind (and patient) enough to weave your virginal locks into a beautiful braid, did you ever master the style yourself?  In case you haven’t, today’s tutorial will have you braiding like a pro in no time.  Once you’ve mastered the basic style, try switching things up with a braid at your crown or slinking one down sideways.

Mais oui!

And as for next week?

à plus tard!

How To Tuesday: Paint the Town Red
Written by: WhyDid | How To Tuesday,Vlog

Red lips are all over the place lately. Stars from Taylor Swift, to Dita Von Teese, to Beyonce Knowles have been known to sport the shade. So, how does one go about picking out and applying red lipstick so as to look sexy rather than scary? Watch and find out:
A brief recap:
  1. Be sure lips are smooth and kissable.
  2. Prime your pout with lip stain.
  3. Line right inside the lip line (as opposed to outside).
  4. Fill in lips with the correct shade of red lipstick for your skin tone.
  5. Blot and make sure there are no smudges on your teeth (awkward).
Now you’re ready to paint the town red, bombshell.
