Reese's Lipstick In Walk The Line

By now I am sure you've all seen this musical hit from last year.

By now I am sure you've all seen this musical hit from last year. In this film, our American Beauty traded in her famous golden tresses for rich dark locks and transformed herself to resemble the American singer June Carter Cash.

Her hair and makeup were gorgeous and when the movie was released I got many requests to help y'all find the perfect pink lipstick shades she wore in the movie. Below are two different powerful pink lip looks from the movie; one evening and one day. Enjoy!

In this scene, Reese is wearing a combo of Paul and Joe Lipstick in Camelia Fou, (a more hot pink color than the coral shade example that is shown), $18 and La Femme Lipstick in Coral Glow, $5.

For a more sweetheart pink color, I think you'll fall in love with this darling color called Love It! by Lancome. It sells for $20 and is from their Color Design LipColor line.

Fancy Neiman Marcus Dish Gloves: Love It or Hate It?

Whoever came up with idea of fancying up dish gloves was reaching a little far.

Whoever came up with idea of fancying up dish gloves was reaching a little far. Some of us enjoy the zen of doing the dishes - it's not that bad of a chore. I guess some people need to glamorize the job and would enjoying wearing these Fancy Neiman Marcus Dish Gloves, $30. I can see a Stepford Wife liking these, especially because of the little rhinestone flair on the left glove...what about you, love them or hate them?
