Valentine’s Day is Coming #whattowear?

Whether you plan to fight the crowds at the premiere of #50shadesofgrey, a romantic dinner out or a fun night with friends, I’ve gotcha covered on what to wear plus the longest lasting lip color EVER and nail colors to go with any outfit!

It can take some effort to find a jumpsuit that fits your personal body type, however once found it will become your new LBD!

This Parker LIV jumpsuit via Nordstrom is not only beautiful but is a great price, now on sale for $118.80 | was $297.00 HERE also available in a beautiful blue color.

Think of a jumpsuit as a LBD which can be worn anywhere; dressed up or down. This crop style can me worn with flat or sky high sandals. If you purchase a wide leg style, go with a heel for a “mile long” leg look.

Both Laundry and Vince Camuto make great fitting jumpsuits!

I am in love with dark floral patterns, I think there is a certain mystery and allure about them.  THIS Maggy London does not disappoint!

A drapey LBD can take you anywhere and these from Halston Heritage are a great value on sale.

Aidan Mattox Leather Paneled Sheath Dress is just plain HOT and $221.00 a bang for the buck!

Found!

Lipstick that literally will not come off till you take it off!

I headed into Sephora this week to pick up a tube of Make Up Forever long wearing lipstick as recommended to me by an ASB reader. After selecting my color I ran into the large Make Up Forever display promoting their #50shadesofgrey inspired sets.

 

The Tease Me Lip Set: Inspired by the movie Fifty Shades of Grey comes in 2 color ways and is a great deal if you are looking to try out the following 3 products.

Line, color, and shine. This playful collection features three lip favorites that you can wear alone, wear together, or experiment to create a sensual look that’s all your own. Line lips with Aqua Lip Pencil, lock in color with Aqua Rouge, and get a glossy finish with Lab Shine. The lip trio also includes makeup artist Victoria’s Down’s favorite lip looks, techniques, and backstage secrets.

 

The set is valued at $62.00 and the cost is $32.00 HERE

The two color options are a beautiful red/berry trio (which I bought) and a nude lip trio.

The product I was most intrigued by was the Aqua Rouge which the sales gal told me “it will stay on all day, I’m not kidding! You actually need to purchase THIS product to remove it.”

Scared yet intrigued, I handed over my credit card and purchased the Sephora Brand Ultimate oli-in-gel lipstick remover HERE | $5.00 as well.

This baby does not disappoint! I put it on at 11:30 AM and at 8:30pm it was still going strong.

Here are my results:

Came off easily with the remover I bought! SOLD!
