Lipstick Lady

"Beauty, to me, is about being comfortable in your own skin. That, or a kick-ass red lipstick."-Gwyneth Paltrow

I like lipstick.

To say I have an obsession may be a understatement. This is my current collection- ranging from light pink to bright orange and everything in between. As far back as I can remember I've been allured by the beauty of bold colorful lips. Even in middle school there was hardly a day that I went without my L'oreal "coffee bean" (mud brown) lipstick. It was hideous, but I stood out. 

My lipstick has come to be almost a trademark for me. I leave it on coffee cups, pens, I stain the inside of my handbags with it, smudge it on clothes, and I often have it on my teeth. My friends like to joke about the insane amount I carry with me at all times (proof here). I even have been known to wear it at the gym...I know, I'm one of those girls. 

speaking of lipstick...here are a few fun shots from the Bay Area Blogger Meet Up in San Francisco last night. I had a great time. I got to ride up with a new friend Lisa who made the two hour car ride a blast! I'm wearing M.A.C.'s Impassioned.
