Diplomat's Son-Vampire Weekend

Here's looking at you, kid.

I was already a big fan of dark, dark lip wear (and when I say "dark" I am indeed referring to a certain number of black shades I wore this past winter) And I was super excited when summer came, and yet still I found this urge to have dark lips. It's a breath of fresh air away from those obvious choices of pinks, corals, and nudes. (Don't get me wrong, I still love a good nude)The great thing about this look is the versatility; some of my favorites are purple, berry, and brick red. 2010's wine lips are very reminiscent of the 90s grunge period, yet are pure elegance in every sense. Besides, there's something really sexy about painting your pout a deep, rich shade just as the temperatures begin to rise.

Welcome home, Stanley.

All I have to say is, I believed in the beard. Congratulations to the Chicago Blackhawks for their first Stanley Cup win since 1961. They were able to snatch their 1st away win and 4th needed win during Game 6 in the Finals. Chicago, this is your night! And way to go boys, you sure made us proud.

just for good measure:
