Since going from a brunette to a redhead I've enjoyed experimenting with various color combinations in both my closet and makeup bag to see what works best with my new locks. I quickly realized what closet staples of mine (like this rust colored fedora) unfortunately just look better in contrast with my brown curls - but on the other hand, I've also been embracing new hues that have made the color change all the more fun! Pink, both bright and pale, is a color I've found to be quite universal... there really is an ideal pink hue for everyone.
I blame my guy for chatting my ear off on the plane rides to and from North Carolina last week and therefore I have yet to get through this rather large stack of March and now, April magazines (although I'm not complaining).
These tulips make our apartment feel one step closer to spring, despite the chilly weather we've been experiencing over the past couple of days.
Revlon Lipgloss "Coral Reef" + ILIA "Shell Shock" = My ideal bright pink lip combination.

Love this :) It's so much fun experimenting with color as a red head... Even 7 months in, I feel like I'm finding new colors I'm enjoying in a way I've never been able to enjoy them before!
Love the pictures!!!

I'm a redhead and always trying to figure out what colors are flattering and what to avoid. How are you feeling about tangerine? I just wrote a post on it abut I'm not sure I can wear it!

I absolutely love pink lipsticks and gloss. It's an easy way to perk up a look! Lately, I've been trying orange and coral, which is just as fun.
Enter to win a pair of earrings from Wendy Mink Jewelry (valued at $123)!
Doux Rousse - I think tangerine lipstick, if more on the pink / coral or red side can definitely work for a redhead (depending on your skin tone)!
i am obsessed with your red hair! so much so that i want to do it but i'm terrified.
I love chocolate milk it's always my go to snack.

@Christin - Awe, thank you - you should go for it!! I was scared too...
Ahhh! I haven't had a chocolate milk in YEARS (lactose intolerant)
It's amazing how much a simple change in hair colour can really bring you in to a whole new style! i love updating my hair colour so that I'm able to try out new colour/pattern combinations that I otherwise, might have shyed away from.

I love bright pink lips! I need to check out Revlon lip products. Seems like everyone raves about them!

I never thought about that, but the best part about changing hair colors would defninitely be getting to wear new colors! I also have tulips sprouting in the front yard, I love spring!!
I'm BEYOND behind on my magazine reading too!

I had the revlon lipgloss. It's best used as a lipstick applicator too.
