the woods

23 October 2011 by Carolina Engman

FALL. It’s funny how a little bit of red lipstick can transform your look + mood, it definitely is one of the best and least expensive beauty investments a girl can make! Can’t wear heels at the moment due to some mean back pain I’ve been suffering from for a while so I decided to go with 40’s inspired hair + makeup to make the look a little bit more interesting, love the way it turned out! Lately I’ve been a lot of comments/emails about what makeup I use so I’ll try to make a post about it later this week. And if anyone was wondering, the lipstick I’m wearing is “Lady Danger” from MAC!

SHADES OF GREY jacket (stolen from my boyfriend), CRUMPET leopard print cashmere sweate.
KURT GEIGER humbug clutch, MICHAEL KORS watch.
