Ciara looked amazing last night at the Givenchy Haute Couture show, and I absolutely love her orange-red lipstick. After seeing an even brighter orange on Melanie Laurent yesterday, I'd also say that orange is definitely having a moment.

By now, you've probably heard me sing the praises of wearing a sexy red lipstick, from how to chose a shade to creating a trendy version of this old-Hollywood look. At a Las Vegas event last night, Whitney Port showed off her own interpretation of a crimson-toned lip, complementing her lacy white dress with both deep- and light-toned makeup choices. Typically, we're used to seeing white shadows used under the brow to lift or along the inner Vs to create an eye-awakening effect, but not in this case, as Whitney's icy white shadow on the lids lends a beautiful contrast between the darkness of her black winged-out liner and matte red lips.

Who knew that Tom Ford, the king of in-your-face sexual advertising, would create a moving and nuanced film that explores the complexity of death and relationships? A Single Man (see the trailer here) is earning rave reviews, and I can't wait to see it. Neither could Madonna, Judy Greer, and Julianne Moore — all of whom attended the premiere wearing creamy red lipstick.

Red lips and cool seasons always get along swimmingly, but this season, bright red really is the predominant color. But variety is the spice of life, and there's no one shade that looks great on everyone. With our variety of skin tones and personal styles, it's hard to navigate the trends — especially when most of the people shown wearing it are tanned and blonde (heck, it's still not easy even if you are tanned and blonde).

Of course, no Avon lineup would be complete without Lauren Conrad, the spokeswoman for Mark. To complement her gray cocktail dress, Lauren opted for a 1940s glam makeup look, complete with glowing cheeks, winged-out liner, and warm red lips.
