Color Crash Course: Grape

Color Crash Course: Grape

Grape/Purple is regal and intriguing, I love it with ivory and black or beige and olive.

I want to try the Clinique Chubby Stick Lip Colour Balm in Whole Lotta Honey. I will check it out later at Macy's. It looks like a color that would go well with the purple and gold eye shadow combination that I love.

Forever 21 Sheer Blouse - Dr.'s Remedy Enriched Nail Polish in Passion - SinfulColors in Daddy's Girl - Smashbox Lip Enhancing Gloss in Ecstasy - M·A·C Eye Shadow in Trax - M·A·C Lipglass in Lap of Luxury


These are the grape/purple items that I've been wearing lately. Trax is one of my favorite eye shadows, it's great with M·A·C's Gorgeous Gold.
