Lipstick dates back 5000 years to
ancient Mesopotamia when crushed semi-precious jewels were applied to
the lips to achieve shades ranging from bright red to deep purple.
The first known lip-painting kit (complete with color-imparting
crushed red rocks) was found in the 5,000-year-old tomb of Queen
Schub-ad at Ur. Egyptian women adorned their pouts with a concoction
of henna, pulverized beetles, and ants, which was deemed so essential
they packed a to-go palette for the afterlife. Elizabeth I and the
ladies of her court powdered their faces a ghostly white so that
their crimson mouths - stained with a coat of poisonous mercuric
sulfide - appeared more dramatic. Even prim, makeup-eschewing
Victorians smooched red crepe paper in hopes that the tint would
transfer to their lips.
L'Oréal is celebrating its 100th
anniversary this year, and lipstick (particularly red lipstick)
happens to be staging a major comeback. The fall 2009 runways were
overrun with glamorous ruby red lips.
So many women think they can't wear red
lipstick. Everyone can wear it; you just have to find the right
shade. You also need to decide what kind of attitude you want to
convey. Depending on the spirit in which it's worn, red lipstick
can be fresh and demure, costumey, punk rock or bombshell sexy.

You don't have to save the Christian
Louboutin for your feet. This darling Cadeau Bow Kiss-Lock Clutch
boasts a tiny pair of sparkling, sky-high, red-soled pumps right on
top of its kiss-lock closure. It's a whimsical touch, one that gives this
exquisitive deep blue velvet purse a city girl edge. It's a little
bit art deco, a little bit "Age of Innocence," and a little bit
Carrie Bradshaw. ($945 at Neiman Marcus)
