The Best.Lipstick Ever!!!

Hi Guys.....

Recently i came across a quote by Gwyneth Paltrow " Beauty, to me, is about being comfortable in your own skin. That, or a Sensational RED LIPSTICK. " And i was feeling it. The first part was right but the second part was bang on for me. Though i am not much of a make up person but lipsticks have always held a special soft spot in my heart. I still remember my first ever experience with any kind of make up was with my mom's  'Red Lipstick'. Once she would go to work i would sneak into her make up drawer and shamelessly apply 3-4 coats of red lipstick. And looking back i can imagine my lips looking like a letter box but at that time it made me feel pretty. And the love affair has continued till date.

So when i went to buy my first make up product few years back it was a Red Lipstick. Personally i feel Red Lipstick is like a magic hat. It can make you feel powerful, confident, strong,sexy, feminine. I have used a couple of red lipsticks over the years but for me the BEST RED LIPSTICK or just the best lipstick ever will have to be MAC's RUBY WOO. It has this perfect beautiful red color that it neither flashy red nor vampire red its little bit brick red little bit pinkish red little bit reddish red. Its awesome. There are times when you just wake up late and you dont have time for the daily shenanigans, a little dab of Ruby Woo and i am good to go. It just brightens up my face and makes me look fresh. Its a matte finish so if you have dry lips then you will need to prep it up with a little lip balm before applying it. The pigmentation is amazing. Usually one coat does it for me. And the staying power?? I can go through my evening snack, dinner and in between munch-ins and still that baby stays when i reach home after 12 hrs. And one of the best things i have noticed about it is that even though i feel like its been made just for me. my friend who is 3-4 shades lighter than me feels its made for her. It suits anyone. Even my mom loves it. And behold ladies so do the boys :-P on you i mean. The only con i can think for it will be the price. Currently its 1490 rps i think which is kind of steep. But i feel your totally worth it;-) If you ever want to own a Mac this has to be it.

Life is too short. Make every day a Red Lipstick Day ;) Cheers!!

Of Songs and Skirts!

Hii.....

Its been 1 hour and i have been listening to "When i'm gone" by Lulu and the Lampshades which was also covered by Anna Kendrick in Pitch Perfect on repeat. In short i am addicted to it at the moment. Doesn't it happens so, that you are listening to your playlist and suddenly you see a song in a different light,like never before. Its like the song has been made for you. It kinda gives me a feeling of those Art experts who find deep underlying meanings in Modern Art Painting though it looks just random stuff to us.I am not going anywhere but i don't know i am kind of feeling it. Like its trying to tell me something.

I am not much of a superstitious person but i do believe in signs that destiny or some Higher power gives you. And i feel music is one such way via which "destiny"communicates with us. Anytime i am in a dilemma i would put on any one of my fav radio stations and i would get answers to my queries through the songs that get played. I know it sounds stupid but it has hardly ever failed me. Yeah, it depends on my interpretation and maybe it helps me find the answers i already knew deep down. But its a help nonetheless. And doesnt everything in this world is premeditated and happens for a reason. So maybe the songs that play too.

Another thing that starts with "S" are skirts :-P Its lame but i didnt know how to go about it. Skirts are one of the most versatile pieces in your wardrobe. You can play it up or down, from Sexy to Casual. It works always. My favorite are the skater skirts. I am 5.2 and i feel they make me look tall :-D

I wore this skirt for a late lunch our with friends. I paired my lace skater skirt from Forever 21 with a casual denim blue shirt from Max. I would have to say there is hardly anything i wear more than this denim shirt. From just a shirt to a jacket it has been everything to me. It can dress down any outfit. For shoes i wore some nude pumps from Jade. For accessories i wore an owl necklace and watch.For face i kept it bare except a little kajal and eyeliner and little dash of  MAC Ruby Woo on lips.

We went to Over the top - terrace lounge in Kormangla and i would rate it 3/5. I would say its a more of night place then afternoon-eveningish. There were hardly any people there. The place is nice and comfy. You can sit and chat for hours. The food was tasty.In all it was a day well spent.
