Found It! Emily Blunt’s Pink Lipstick

Mar 6, 2012 @ 4:55 pm

We love how Emily Blunt wore a salmon pink lip color for the Los Angeles premiere of her new movie, Salmon Fishing in the Yemen. It was such an appropriate color choice given the name of her new flick! However, her makeup artist Jenn Streicher told InStyle.com she pulled her idea for the hue from elsewhere: “I drew inspiration from Emily’s chic, ‘50s-inspired dress,” she said, citing Blunt’s circle-patterned Naeem Khan tea-length design. As for the lips, Streicher applied Lancome’s Color Design Matte Lipstick in Pink Preview. Pick up your own tube for $22 at lancome-usa.com.

Yves Saint Laurent creative director Stefano Pilati is leaving his position at the label soon, and showed his last collection during Paris Fashion Week today. The goodbye-runway show featured a powerful lineup of dark-hued, moody looks, like chainmail dresses, leather separates, and precisely-cut suiting in shades of dark green, blood red, and black. Accessories also had a dark feel, with embellished chunky cuffs, calla lily chokers, sexy platforms with mirrored heels, and waist-cinching wide belts. See our favorite looks in the gallery now.

Bar Refaeli Would Shave Her Head If She Could

Mar 6, 2012 @ 2:50 pm

Bar Refaeli is no stranger to over-the-top runway hairstyles, but there’s one look she hasn’t tried yet. “I would like to go ballsy one time and shave my head, but only if someone would promise me that I could take a pill and grow my hair back in one day,” the model told InStyle.com at Elton John’s Academy Awards viewing party last week. “But then I can’t do fashion dares like that if no one promises me that I can go back to normal.” Anything is possible!
