kiss me?


 I finally got round to doing a few outfit photos... the only trouble is I woke up late and didn't have much time to get ready before work this morning. It's now evening and though I could have cheated and changed into something a little more interesting... well I didn't (sorry, I'm just too lazy). In hindsight maybe I should have... ah well. I don't like dressing up much for work so usually it's a smock/t-shirt type top with a skirt or shorts and a cardigan.
(I have a million cardigans - I'm actually a granny at heart). 



 
Cardigan: Primark
Top: H&M
Tights: Primark
Skirt: H&M
Nails: Rimmel Lasting Finish in 275 Electric

I have the attention span of a gnat so halfway through I put some red lipstick on... I feel like I should start experimenting with lipstick. 
I just can't help but feel like my mother when I wear it!

I was inspired by an article I read on the Guardian website [here] by their new Beauty Editor, Sali Hughes. It's a really handy guide if you're relatively new to lip colour, as I am. I'm really tempted by the Maybelline 'Coral Tonic' colour - but I picked it up in Boots today and I totally wimped out. Instead I'm wearing a Revlon (730 'Revlon Red') lipstick I've had for ages (it'll never run out, I wear it about twice a year, when I'm feeling super crazy...)



 I definitely prefer the no lipstick look - but it's always nice to have a change.

KISSES, Jen
