Forgive My Cheshire Grin.

I look a little creepy in these pictures, but I wanted to show off the cool picture Marisa took with her tri-lens. We shot these at school on a day when it was miserable outdoors. I'm not a fan of indoor outfit photos, but sometimes a girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do, right? I was feeling very Ghost World/Love & Other Drugs/90's throwback that day (note the shirt tied at the waist!).

I've been enamoured with orange lips ever since those iconic Prada ads, and I finally found one that I like! Granted, it was a splurge, but I found that drugstore versions didn't have enough pigment or true orange in them... On a related note, does anyone have any tips for a matte lip primer? I find the MAC lipstick super drying, but my usual lip gloss doesn't quite work underneath.

Thrifted leather jacket, skirt, boots.
True Value Vintage button up shirt ($5!).
Joe Fresh tights.

    Love the orange lipstick! It looks awesome on you. I usually just put some lip balm on before I put on my Mac matte lipstick, but that's just me. :)

    I would say put on some balm on underneath and it should be good, I find that the more matte and pigmented the lippy the more drying it is. I've been meaning to get MAC's moranage lippy, I'm hoping that would be a nice colour on me.

    that lipstick is so vibrant and so cool, I'm totally tempted to go out and invest in some coral shades now! xx
