Love It or Hate It: Cannes Angelina Pull Off Red Lipstick?
Angelina Jolie is back this year at the 2009 Cannes Film Festival looking ravishing as ever. So far we've seen her dolled in a pretty peach gown for the premiere of Inglourious Basterds. I know that she's there supporting Brad, however she's totally stolen the spotlight off of him on the red carpet.
Trend Alert: Poppy Lipstick
For those of you who like to match your lips and your nails, poppy lipstick is making a strong statement this Spring. In the past week alone we've seen Jodie Kidd model new St. Tropez tanning products, Chloë Sevigny attended the Chloe Los Angeles Boutique opening and Alexis Bledel went to a Tribeca Film Festival premiere, all with a bright and flirty poppy pout.
Which Colour Lipstick Do You Like Best on Kristen Stewart?
Last night at the Adventureland Premiere in Los Angeles, actress Kristen Stewart arrived looking more mature (and dare I say polished) than usual. Her hair was swept into a chignon and her makeup was soft except for her bold red lipstick choice. Kristen usually opts for a minimalist makeup style like we see below, so this splash of colour is a real treat.
Autumn 2009 Trend Alert: Red Lips
History repeats itself, even when it comes to fashion and beauty. So, it's no surprise to see red lipstick making it's appearance on the autumn catwalks again, and I must say, that I'm quite relieved that deep purples and blood-coloured goth-inspird lips are taking a break and giving the classics a chance to make their return. Take a peek at some of the red-lip looks from the runways of 2009 Autumn/Winter London Fashion Week in the following slides.
Trend Alert: Red Lips at The NME Awards
Red lips abounded on the red carpet at the NME's in a range of shades. Singer Florence Welch arrived with a vibrant, true cherry-red hue. Girls Aloud member Sarah Harding wore a goth, blood-red colour, and Jamaican-American model, actress and singer Grace Jones sported a look I haven't seen since the 80's — she rimmed her lips with a deep red-black lip liner!
Love It or Hate It? Scarlett Johansson's Tomato-Red Lips
Of all the looks to aim for on the red carpet, this one pretty much defines "traffic stopping." I'm convinced that Scarlett Johansson had her lipstick custom blended to match her dress for the Los Angeles premiere of Vicky Cristina Barcelona — I've never ever seen a match quite this exact before! One thing's for sure: This voluptuous young actress has confidence.
A Few Tips for Red Lips
Red lips are having a moment right now, but a classic red lip never really goes out of style. I used to be intimidated by wearing them, but now they're in regular rotation—and they're especially festive for this time of year.
So when Molly R.
Which Lipstick Do You Like Best on Diane Kruger?
The typically demure Diane Kruger wore this season's red "it" lip to Condé Nast Movies Rock. With her perfect skin, sparkling smile and bright eyes, I think she pulled it off beautifully. I also happen to really like her pale pink lips at the GQ Turns 50 celebration party as well as her natural and shiny coral-colored lipstick from the 64th Venice Film Festival.
Which Lipstick Do You Like Better on Helena Christensen?
Last night at the Margot at the Wedding premiere, Helena Christensen arrived sporting one of this season's hottest beauty trends, bold red lips. Last month she graced the black carpet at the 30 Days of Night premiere with a similar hairstyle, but with barely-there lip gloss. Which lipstick do you prefer on Helena — or should I say, which color do you think makes her amazing eyes stand out more?
Who Looked Better in a Side Updo at The Emmy Awards?
I'm not so sure that I completely understand this hairstyle, but since both Kate Walsh and Heidi Klum usually look stunning, I am going to let it pass and even praise them for taking a beauty risk. Paired with their bold red lips and glamorous dresses, they stand out on the red carpet somehow seem to get away with this strange side updo. How do you feel about this hairstyle, and who do you think wore it better?
