Gunmetal

I really need that bright red lippie. Any suggestions? It has to be REALLY bright. Since I don’t have it yet, it’s back to my bright orange lipstick for this one.

Doesn’t it look like I’m wearing a peplum skirt? Surprise, surprise! It’s actually a peplum belt plus skirt! Remember my post entitled “1-2-3”? This is the same peplum belt except this time, it’s in leather. Other than this color, Miss Sartorial also has it in red and black. But since I wanted something different, I went for this metallic number instead.

To keep it classy and sophisticated, I carefully selected the accessories that will complete my look. I went against wearing gunmetal or silver accessories that match my skirt’s color and went for gold accessories instead to make a bolder statement. I don’t know if you’ve noticed but my accessories are getting more and more minimal. I don’t know if it’s just because I’m always in a hurry or if it’s just a result of my aging. LOL. Either way, I’ve learned that it’s really not about the number of accessories you pile on. Sometimes, all it takes is selecting the right accessories. A few right ones can make a statement too!

    Stunning! Actually, I’ve started wearing peplum dresses when I saw it from you and Tricia! Galing maka-sosyal and maka-office-appropriate (except that I need longer skirts hehe). This look, I love best! Super! Really love it! :) The colors are well-coordinated! I’m inspired ulit to do the same (or at least hawig hehe).

    for a bright red lipstick, try MAC. My mom use it. just not sure which one. Will ask her again :D

    Hi, Camille! I like how your gunmetal ensemble works with the gold accessories. MAC Russian Red is the ultimate red lipstick. It’s definitely the bold red which works with all skin tones. MAC Ruby Woo is indeed red, but I’d have to say it’s a tad lighter and dainty in a sense, especially compared to Russian Red. I think it’s best if you swatch them yourself. :)

    Ohlala! You’re wearing my favorite heels! I’ve said this a million times but I really really love that shoes, Miss Camille! :) I must agree when you said that it isn’t on how many piles of accessories you’re going to wear, balance is everything. This outfit is absolutely sexy and classy! ;)

    Try MAC Ruby Woo or Ruffian Red (yes, hindi ako nagkamali sa pagtype! Ruffian talaga siya pero limited edition siya)
    or Lime Crime’s Retrofuturist! :)

    Nice outfit, BTW! hindi ko kasi keri yung mga ganyan kasi mabalakang ako. :(

    Hi Camille !

    Love this outfit even though I was kinda cross about the peplum belt, but you wear it well. Moving on to the lips though, my favourite red lipsticks are

    Dragon Girl – Nars ( its in the matte velvet lipstick pencil. im pretty sure you know which ones those are ha)
    as well as Gabrielle, and Cambon both by Chanel.
    MAC in Russian Red is currently my favourite because its really bright and looks great during the gloomy winter days.

    I hope this helps ! Much love :) xx

    Everyone’s been suggesting MAC and Revlon but you should also try Everbelina Miss Camille. I think their SCARLET is a dupe for MAC’s red lippies. :) Just saying..hehe

    You may want to consider NARS’ jungle red! Its good in terms of its durability and colour :) you can check that out! And wooooh i love it when u wear like this! For some reasons i thought peplum skirt really suits u well ^^ and did you cut the bottom part of the dress off? If not, how did u even manage to wear a ‘bandage’ skirt with a skirt underneath???! Haha! And i just landed in philippines, the weather is scorching hot, how did u even manage to survive the hot weather and take outfit shots :( hehe but anyway i really hope i can see u in person in my 1 month stay here! ^^

    this is the 1st time I have been on your blog and I must say I really love it and your style. you are also one of the few bloggers I have seen who replies to there comments. That is always such a good thing. I get so annoyed when I see a blog with comments and the author never replies. How ever I really love this look! I really want one of these belts. But of course living in NYC you can find it for more then a reasonable price. However you just gained a new faithfully follower! I needed something cool to read again!

    Heya Camille! My gosh all your outfits are simply amazing even though you mix different styles all the time, you do it so well it all just falls together! I’ve learnt a lot from you. So I was thinking of something: Is it possible to display some sort of archive for your previous posts? Monthly if possible? See I’ve been following you for almost a year now and been keeping up with your posts daily, but there’re others i haven’t seen yet from before and i would really really like to ogle them too.

    I LOOOOVE IT when you dress up like this! You know, less colorful clothes and burloloys. Pero dahil nalalabi na lang ang mga araw mo bilang 24 ka na… we’ll understand if you’re going to wear clothes that scream “Ang pagdadalaga ni Camille Co” more often. At least you can still give Victoria JUSTICE diba! Di bale 6 yrs from now, wrinkles will start to appear at magiging unforgivable na ang cutesy outfits. chos! At talagang inexpect ko na ang wrinkles ha. Baka nga brain mo parin lang ang wrinkled by then eh!

    P.S. May alam akong so affordable na lippie! Kinabog niya ang pagka-bright ng retina display ng apple products! STABILO BOSS ang brand! Glow in the dark pa. Available in all leading bookstores nationwide! chos!!! haha!
