Everytime I Close My Eyes, It's Like A Dark Paradise

I'm hating the horrible cold weather that has made a comeback after the lovely sunshine last week, especially as it's my Birthday on Monday and I was hoping for a lovely sunny day.  This has left me in a sombre mood, hence the dark outfit, just when I thought it was time to be getting out the pastels and florals.  I also got this lipstick a few weeks ago, as I have wanted a dark plum coloured lipstick for a while but haven't been brave enough.  I decided to take the plunge when I swatched this Revlon lipstick in Boots, even though the name New Black made me a little wary I loved the colour.  It's dark but not so dark that I feel like I'm a borderline goth.  As for the lipstick itself it goes on very nicely but is not very long lasting, so regular touch ups are needed.  Do you think this darker shade suits me?

Thought I'd leave you with a few pictures of Riley from when we were enjoying the sunshine.  He's getting so big now!

  1. The lipstick is lovely, really suits you. Your dog is beautiful!! Btw I replied to your comment about the striped leggings, but I don't think Blogger notifies about replies (which is a bit stupid) so thought I'd let you know!
