Emmy Awards Trend: Red Lipstick!






See the trend? It is one of Fall's huge trends this year: Red Lipstick!


I wouldn't go with the red lips for everyday wear, but it is a very sophisticated, hot look when dressing up! Red lips will definitely turn heads.


If you want to try this out, here is my suggestion: try on one of many shades at a department store or somewhere that you can see what the lipstick looks like on before you buy, or get an inexpensive one at a drugstore, like Maybelline or Cover Girl.

Product Review: Fashion Stick Push-Up Cups! Love these!



Fashion Stick Push-Up Cups: Reusable foam bra cups that magically stick to your clothing - Not your skin!

Find at pk-fashions.com!
or Macy's or Dillard's.

These are perfect for: backless,strapless wear , bras, summer tops, exercise wear and formal wear!

I bought these at the end of summer and wish I had them at the beginning. These are wonderful...no more bra straps. They definitely give the lift I need (especially after nursing 2 children) and they stay in place extremely well. It is easy to forget you are even wearing them!
I can't wait to try the perma-cups next year in my bikini top!
