Old Hollywood

I'm OBSESSED with 'old Hollywood' style makeup at the moment. I'm a big fan of bold lipstick in general as I think it has the potential to liven up any look but a dark lip is what I've really been gravitating towards as I love the drama of it. My preferences would be MAC Rebel, which is a gorgeous berry shade, or MAC Odyssey which is a dark burgundy. For a Hollywood-blockbuster-red Topshop's lipstick Rio Rio is really pigmented and definitely pops for a Marylin-inspired look. I am still attempting to perfect the old Hollywood hair wave, fingers crossed I nail it by the Christmas party season!
