I have mentioned already my current obsession with red lips and nails. My previous buys were more of an orange-red shade, so I decided to invest in a pink-red shade as a cooler alternative.
I chose the new Chanel Coco range in the colour Byzantin to roughly compliment my Lotus Red Chanel nail polish, as worn in my last post.
Bold lips are a look I really love so I was pleased to see it showing as a major trend on the AW 10 runways...

Love red lips, they are both rebellious and glamorous! I love my MAC Ruby Woo and my Benetint :-)
Me & Red are not friends. It's like mxing Peas and icecream.....wrong for me, I always look like I've drunk alot of koolaid. But you were the colour very well :)
Im with you, love a great red combo, but what do you see yourself wearing for spring?
Are you eyeing any lip/nail looks?
I wish I weren't so pale, otherwise I would wear bold lips more often! But usually I regret wearing it, have to rub it all off, and end up with irritated, red skin all around my mouth, haha. But I do agree with you - it is so beautiful and classic!
I love bold red lips. Its such an elegant look.
Red lips are the best!
red lips are my favorite :D
I'm gonna try some bright red lips, I usually go with bronzy/rose or mauve. I need to step out of my comfort zone!
I love how red lips go in and out while I keep wearing them year after year.
I must say, I'm interested in trying purple lips lately. Though nothing will ever replace red as my everyday look for me.
Ah Chanel. I love how the name is stamped right into the colour. x
Red lips are the best! Such a great shade you bought! x
Chanel red lipstick...as usual classy...indeed FOREVER!
i've been all about statement lips lately. i've acquired quite the collection: blacks, deep purples, fuschia, orange, and even yellow.
i'm really a fan of experimenting with new, bold colors. should be a fun spring and summer!
Gorgeous! I'm not brave enough to wear bright red lipstick...yet! :)
I recently bought my first MAC lipstick in "Pervette" and love it. :) I guess I'm very grown-up now...haha...
;)

I think it is really hard to decide between all those shades of red. Love this colour. Red lipstick is just so sophisticated

Red lips are my favorite, and the new shade you have looks gorgeous.
Ooh, I like it!
I can't wait to see how you wear this!
Oh I absolutely love bold red lips too, that shade looks lovely and those picks are really great!
i've just discovered your blog and it's adorable!
I love the red color but it looks terrible on my face.

There's nothing like red lipstick. And it looks so good on us, brunettes. :)
Xoxo!
I had the New York Red from Chanel. They make amazing lipsticks. Yours is a great colour!
I love it. It is so striking! Red lips are so classy and will never go out of style!

great photos. I have always wanted to wear that bold red lipstick, but, being so white skinned and pale and red haired, feels somehow strange. This shade seems so Hollywood glamorous, reminding me of vintage movies :)
I love red lips :) i wish i could pull it off but i cant seem to find a shade that suits.
vicki xo
Lovely photos!
I love pink and red:)
Hugs♥
I love the red lips, so crisp and bright! Tres chic!

Ooh so gorgeous. I love red lips!
OH! yes, red lipstick!!! i hope i will be in the mood soon to try it on!!!
happy friday, dear, xx
I completely agree about red lips! I've been wearing red lipstick more lately, too.
I loved Sandra Bullocks lips for the oscars... very chic!
i loved hearing all of your lipstick shades & dilemmas!
senorita fashionista - i find myself being ruled by chanel colours, so for nails especially i will follow their lead! i very much stick to pink lipstick shades for my colouring usually.
vicki - yes, i think it is very difficult to find a good shade that suits - perserverance is key!
i'm mad about these new range of chanel lipsticks. will be mine very soon. :) love the colour you've picked, really bold but not too bright (which doesn't suit me). i'm gonna have a look at it when i'm browsing the counter.
delicious pics. i haven't done the bold lip in a while, maybe it's time for a change ;-)
