A Bow Thing

Pictures: Facehunter

Bows are such a tiny step for huge effect on an outfit.

Last night I met up with an online seller and now I have a replica Marc Jacobs stam bag in camel. It's awfully heavy. I know the smell and feel of the leather of a real stam bag will drive me crazy. I'm also thinking of not shopping for a month, because I've been living too much in excess. Is this too many words? I think so. I haven't been feeling my best all morning.

This is a picture I just can't really take my eyes off. The colours are beautiful, and I want to know how Susie gets it right every time.

Music Festivals (and such)

And of course, one of the best things about going for a music festival of this sort... the outfits! Style.com has a few photo albums dedicated just for events like these, here are some looks i like.

As a parting note, here's my advice: there are two things you should remember when dressing for music festivals
1. Comfort Is Key.
2. You can get away with wearing things you can't on any other regular day

So what that really means is... Go wild! But remember to wear comfortable (and mud proof) shoes, experiment with colours and prints, accessorize, and do not forget sunblock and your sunnies! Until we meet again, Lipsticked might be meeting some of you at these events really soon!
