Vamp Diaries

So ever since I met Melissa from Crowded Closet the night we went out in New York during fashion week, I have been craving her deep plum shade of lipstick. And, huzzah! I have found the perfect shade! And it has the best name: Vamp. Mmmmm, sexytimes.


I love that it stays on, too. I hate lipsticks that you can just tell are low quality and fall off in an hour, it's the one make-up item that I can really tell is poorly made. But this one... is like Butta'. Like a big stick uh buttah.

Anyways, the best part of all this is that one of you gets to have a tube of Vamp all to yourself! I'm giving away a tube of Motives Vamp lipstick along with some fake lashes and paint pot eyeshadow (to complete your "Bam!" look). Since my last giveaway where you guys got to style the ModCloth dress on Polyvore (winner coming soon!), I thought it would be fun to do a similar giveaway where you got to style something again. I so enjoyed seeing all your amazing outfit creations! Plus, I know most of you won't be able to enter the Couturious scholarship contest, so I wanted to do something where you guys could use Couturious to create a fabulous outfit!

So here's the rub:
1. Go to Couturious, sign in and style up an outfit you would wear with your new Vamp lipstick. Like so:

(I would've loved to wear this outfit to the girls night out in NYC. Amaze!)

2. Come back here and leave a comment on this post with a link to your fabulous outfit.
3. Tell me where you're off to in your bangin' outfit and hot lips.
4. Don't forget to leave your email address in the comment.

And go check out all the other shades of lipstick Motives has. I have a lovely shade of coral, and they just came out with a new shade of coral too (and I just spotted a more red shade, ooh! So many coral lipsticks!), so I may have to try it. My other red is Scarlet and I love that one too.

That is all! The giveaway will be open until Monday, April 19th at 9pm AKST. Open to international entrants.

Ohh I am not a lipstick wearer usually but I adore that shade!!

I made a couturious look to go out on the town in NYC with a group of girls like you mentioned. I have never been to NYC but it sounds so fun and glamorous so I thought it was the perfect inspiration.

That site is so addicting and awesome. This outfit I would wear out for cocktails or a beer to listen to some music most likely.

But I kept playing with different bag options... Could dress it down with a larger bag for weekend day shopping or coffee or running around with and a sweater or cardigan to cover the back to make it more work/office appropriate.
Love it eaither way.

I hope you don't have to be able to afford the outfit you make, because mine's a little out of my budget!

I would wear this in an amazing city, for a brunch date with friends followed by some shopping. I would feel stylish, but comfy and not too showy!

Putting together outfits on Couturious is so much fun, I love when you don't have to pay for clothes, haha.

Here's the link: http://www.couturious.com/c/mustard-pleasures/18669

I would wear this plus your gorgeous lipstick to go to our luxury shopping street here and dare walk in all the shops I didn't dare to enter before and I'd pretend to look at the clothes as if I could afford to buy them and nobody would doubt that I could. This would be fun I think, pretending to have enough money, haha. Sfterwards I would sit in a café and do some people-watching, I love to watch all the different people that walk by.
Sigh, this would be a nice afternoon :)

I would wear the lipstick with this outfit for a night out with the boyf!

I usually wear dresses on dates but I thought I could rock the lipstick better with some jeans. Still, I kept the look feminine with the ruffle top! (:

Great giveaway, you look gorgeous.

love the color!! =)

Dian said...

The Vamp color looks so sexy and mysterious! I create an outfit for an all night long party in the city (Chicago for me :P). It is a hip, sexy urban outfit. I choose sequins top and mini skirt with bold bright color and pattern to enhance the dark Vamp lipstick color.

Oh my God, you are so beatiful! Could I please get your hair? :) Also you should thank BusyBeeLauren because she showed me the way to this blog, and now you have another avid reader :)

Gabby said...

Such a gorgeous colour, so excited to enter your contest!

http://www.couturious.com/c/The-Lady-is-a-Vamp/19688

The perfect outfit for ravaging humans and draining them of their blood... erm... i mean... for an afternoon coffee date or a night out.

I wanted to avoid the typical "vampire" colours that go hand-in-hand with such a dark coloured lipstick, and mixed it with a tealish blue instead. I think it goes together rather well :)

oh I totally forgot to include my email... -_-

suh-weet!

here is my outfit: http://www.couturious.com/c/DT-21st/21156

See, it's my 21st birthday coming up. I live in a smallish town but it's full of stylish ladies who like to get dressed up, even for quiet nights. My birthday is a Thursday & there is this cute jazz evening at a local bar/theatre. The place is entirely wood & glass & generally wonderful.

I made my look around an upcoming concert I'm going to, a casual look with the lipstick to add a little drama!
