things have been slowing down over here lately. my belly is getting huge and i’m having trouble staying on my feet, sitting, or doing any productive human things other than slowly preparing the house for the arrival of the baby. but this weekend, i did have an opportunity to get a little dolled up to celebrate my grandmother’s birthday with family. and of course, the one accessory (besides this epic minju kim for h&m collar) that really completes my looks and makes me feel fancy, is a nice bold lip color. i probably own at least 20 shades of red and pink and am pretty much always on the hunt for the new perfect color. so of course, i was very pleased to team up with refinery29 and maybelline new york to try a few samples of the new color elixir lip colors. it’s a super-saturated lip gloss that you can layer on for a bit of sheer tint or a major pop of color, and this pretty pink shade in ‘fuchsia flourish’ was a perfect compliment to my green and blue getup.
wearing: vintage ’60s tent dress, minju kim for h&m leather collar, vintage salvatore ferragamo mary janes, color elixir in fuchsia flourish courtesy of maybelline new york.

This shade of lipstick is definitely gorgeous on you. It really does compliment the colors in your dress. You look adorable!
I have two of these lip elixirs and I’m obsessed! They look gorgeous on you :)
The colour of this dress is gorgeous! x
you looks SO stunning! I’m amazed how perfect and at ease you look considering all that comes with pregnancy.
Your vintage tent dress is just perfect maternity wear. And I love your hair this longer length. I long for long hair!
haha, i’ve totally been thinking about cutting it back into a longer bob length. long hair is harder work than i thought!
What a unique collar! Loving how this dress is looking on you. I am so behind in reading your blog and totally had no idea that I missed so many. I hope your grandmother had a great birthday. You have that many lipsticks?? I have 4 shades. >.< I'm so dull.
still jealous of them cheek bones. that collar is indeed epic
