leather & a little sparkle.

 Top: c/o Ali & Kris | Skirt: Forever 21 (similar)
Clutch: Forever 21 (love this one) | Heels: Aldo (love these)
Nails: Essie 'Sole Mate' | Lipstick: Revlon Colorburst Lip Butter in 'Berry Smoothie'

My boyfriend, Trey, got me this faux-leather mini as one of my Christmas gifts (what a keeper, right?) because I've been loving the leather trend this winter. I thought my sheer glitter star blouse c/o Ali & Kris was the perfect compliment to my skirt because it's subtly glam, and an all-black outfit was the perfect canvas for trying out some lipstick! I absolutely love that lipstick is becoming the 'it' beauty trend right now. It's just so classic and glamorous...

With that being said, what are some of your favorite lipstick brands & colors?? Preferably on the affordable, drug store end of the spectrum :)

xo,
Jacy

All black with a hint of sparkle is definite winner in my book! Super cute Jacy:)! As for lipsticks...I'm all for the drugstore ones...I like fusion fuschia from Revlon (I think that's what it's called...it's the hot pink one in my photos).

Love the all black!! And can I please get legs like yours??:) I usually buy MAC lip products, they aren't too expensive & if you decide you don't like the color, you can take it back & they have a cool recycling program to earn free lipsticks:)
