I love this clean, sophisticated and elegant look. Carey Mulligan may usually wear favorite nudes and pinks but she chose a regal-princess-like chic at Cannes.
I can’t rave enough about how pretty her makeup and hair looked, bravo to her beauty team!
I haven’t seen Gatsby yet, I just don’t want Leo to die….

I tend to shy away from pastels and often gaze wistfully at pink lipstick and glosses. A Citygirl in Red knows she can’t live on red alone and once in a while wears a shade of pink that’s just to die for.
When I fell-in-love with Coco shine in Paradis I had no idea it was a color named after one of my favorite French Models, Vanessa Paradis. Now I understand, the shade is chic beyond words and totally French.
The perfect shade of pink for this Citygirl!
Another favorite past-time besides finding great red lipstick shades is passionate kissing and it’s a win-win combination when you can lock-lips for several hours and still have an irresistible kisser.
Lipstains are a personal favorite, they allow me to wear a tint of color all day, after morning green tea, lunch and passionate embraces.
Sangria by Smashbox is a long-wearing fool-proof shade that lasts and lasts….the color is a deep-red stain that leaves your lips drenched in gorgeous color all day.
And to avoid chapping there is a built-in lip balm that can be applied right after a lip excursion or after your favorite meal to maintain soft and supple lips.

I love Lucy Liu, and missed my chance to actually see her in person. My sisters and I were in Paris 4 years ago during fashion week, that wasn’t planned believe me and it was funny because we ran into famous models at Buddha Bar that looked familiar, but being unaware didn’t pay attention. and while I stepped inside one of the many pharmacies and my sisters waiting patiently for me outside, Lucy Liu walks by…..
Why do I love Lucy Liu, because she’s cool, she’s gorgeous and a bad-ass. I loved her in Dirty, Sexy Money and love her hair color, OK let’s just say I love everything about her.
Here we see her featured on The Edit by Net-A-Porter.com and she looks lovely! I can’t wait to read the interview….
Here’s to Lucy Liu!

I heard about Lip Color Shine by Tom Ford through my favorite European Fashion Magazines, they couldn’t praise the collection enough, especially Willful.
Lip Color Shine is a combination lip balm/lipstick rolled into one and as usual I had to stick my lips-in-it.
Willful is a sheer, almost transparent wash of irresistible color that works on a variety of skin tones, the texture is hydrating, moisturizing, luxurious and feels like a slip for your lips.
The perfect training-wheels-sort-of-color for those of us that usually shy away from crimson pouts.
$48
Available in 10 gorgeous shades.
