Now, I have never been the type to wear red lipstick, even though I have an abundance of them. I used to think that red lips were just... too sexy for me. But damn it, something just feels so right when I put on my black floppy hat and wear it with red lipstick.
Maybe it's the Taylor Swift fan girl in me, who knows. (Yes, might as well confess, guys, I love her. And thanks to the internet, I now sing and bleat like a goat to I Knew You Were Trouble.)
I have been loving wearing these three red lipsticks in the past couple of weeks. (Well, okay, the Revlon isn't technically a lipstick...)

Shiny, sleek va-va-voom red goodness. I have a bunch of red Rouge Voluptes, I'll put up a comparison swatch one day if you dig.

This is a lovely matte red. It's a muted kind of red and not as in your face as the YSL one.

It's sheer but I love that it brings out the redness in your lips. I got this recently from Priceline and I wear it on days when I don't feel like being WHAM! LIPS IN YO FACEEE.
Also, let's just put it out there, Priceline is my second home. You ever wonder why there's a tent in the make up aisle, yeah that's mine.

How do you feel about red lipstick?
Do you have any favourite reds?
Oh my god, I've never thought about pairing red lips with my black hat!!! EEP!!!! All the lost opportunities!!! - Not that I am a fan of Taylor Swift; she annoys me but she is pretty.
