BEAUTY: RED LIPS FOR FALL

Is it too early to think about Fall? Hi, Monica here from Beauty Parler.

My favourite season is around the corner and although many of you might not want to think about Fall it is coming. Fall brings us gorgeous hues of browns, oranges, and reds. The crispness of a cool night, stomping on leaves and drinking lattes. But, my favorite is the look of a red lip. I find that many either love a red lip or hate it. Primarily due to the fact that finding the right shade of red can be difficult. Honestly, I embraced the red lip in my early 30's.

I'd be jealous of my friends that wore a red lip because they always seemed; sophisticated, confident, and sexy. Of which I didn't have the confidence to wear in my 20's. Although I loved shades of deep pinks I couldn't find the right shade of red. I've narrowed down a few of my favorites. Admittedly, hands down my ultimate red lipstick is MAC Dubonnet.  A true classic that has been around since the 1990's.  Have a great weekend!

DIY: Bridesmaids Gift Idea

While on instagram a few days ago, I saw this pic below of my Love Script print.

Linh from A Beautiful Rawr blog created it for her best friend's bachelorette party  - she had each girl kiss the print & sign their name! Cute idea right? Well, I thought....why not do this as a wedding gift for bridesmaids?  It's a cute & easy DIY idea inspired by the lovely Linh.

  • First, purchase the love script print at MADE BY GIRL
  • Purchase (1 ) print for each bridesmaids to hang in her home.
  • Pass each print around to each bridesmaid & let her add her signature lipstick, along with her name underneath it.
  • Each bridesmaid will take one of these home as a gift after the wedding. 
  • There you have it, a cute DIY for any wedding that will leave each girl with a beautiful memory!
