mwah mwah mwah!
Now I’m not one for red lipstick myself, although if I had the right kind of mouth I’d run to the shops and buy this exact shade of red and start practicing my Jessica Rabbitt pout. I admire women with signature red lips but on me it’s hardly the height of sophistication; more costume vamp or first-time-with-mum’s-lippie amateur. Lulu Guinness practises what she preaches when it comes to retro glamour and like many designers she prefers to wear own creations. Her clothes and accessories emancipate the 50s pin-up in all of us and ensure she’s right up to date. The result is tongue-in-cheek but not kitsch, and that’s because the quality and craftsmanship are superb. I can’t think of a more winning combination with this season’s structured looks than this clutch. Love love love. Or should that be mwah mwah mwah! And if you’re not a fan of snakeskin there’s a perspex version of the evening bag at £195.00, plus other colours too. Who needs the right kind of mouth when you can carry one?
