Everyone else is probably just as insecure. If you make enough of a statement, maybe it’ll make you feel better to know exactly what people might be staring about, instead of self-consciously second-guessing. It’s why people get crazy piercings, right? You don’t have to get tattoo’d or stuck like a pin, though: it’s what make-up is for. To look a little more like you want to, and it’s completely under your control. So make it funZO.

Here’s some awesome ideas for some fresh looks—granted, they’re not very traditional (done as fashion show presentations), but good taste consists of the balance of “just so”—a coherent look—will help make your style pop sass and style. Confidence helps: resigning to “that’s not for me” or “I can’t pull that off” simply makes the sentiment true. Go out on the town and paint it whatever goddamn color you want. Remember when you dreamt of “When I grow up…”? Well, you’re grown up. And you can do what you want.

Drastick lips: Black, Dark, Or Eye-Popping Neons
Dramatic yes, but fierce as Tyra Banks (…before ANTM). Makes your eyes pop and draws attention to your edginess…. your dark side.

Too Two Toned Lips
Bump up the sass with an extra pop in your color: two toned lips made a coy appearance at the Nanette Lepore Fall 2010 show. Dress them up, take them out, kiss the boys and make them pout.

Knot (NOT) so Nappy

Fendi features some sweet knots in their Autumn/Winter show. Let your hair take a break from the reliable but tiring ballerina bun– a desperate variety is in need.

Truth is, haven’t been shopping lately. The sheer amount of clothing and competition is overwhelming over here, not to mention my dad and Michael ragging on about dinner or going home. But when I get back to Value Village…
