I am so glad you like the trousers as much as I do. </p> <p>Bijou, thank you for the suggestions, I think the trousers will work in Spring as well and to wear them with pastels is a great idea. And thank you for the tip about the lipstick primer, I am going to try that. </p> <p>Jessicams and Sterling, I don’t really have any special method how to wear red lipstick I think. I usually use a tiny amount of lip balm before and let it absorb, so the lips are not greasy. Then I use lipstick either directly from the bullet or with a small brush. Than I correct the shape with a pencil and last a second layer of the lipstick. I blott the lips between layers with a tissue. My favourite texture is more creamy, not completely mat. The mat long lasting lipsticks are often quite drying. I don’t use a gloss on top of the lipstick for the same reason as you, Jessicams, the lipstick doesn’t sit as it should then. I reapply after meals and sometimes also in between, depending on the kind of lipstick I wear. Also want to recommend Lisa Eldridge’s online tutorials. I think it was Lisa P. who recommended Lisa Eldridge here on YLF some time ago and I got sort of hooked. Lisa Eldridge has really good tutorials for example about how to choose and apply red lipstick. You find them on lisaeldringe.com </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-festive-challenge---shimmering-leather-trousers#post-1978907 Sun, 02 Dec 2018 16:19:56 +0000 Angie 1978907@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>KILLER, and you have KILLER style,<b> Katerina.&nbsp;</b></p> <p>I love the way the scarf adds the final glam and interesting touch.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-festive-challenge---shimmering-leather-trousers#post-1978879 Sun, 02 Dec 2018 14:59:43 +0000 always trying 1978879@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks elegant, and those pants are over the top. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-festive-challenge---shimmering-leather-trousers#post-1978877 Sun, 02 Dec 2018 14:57:34 +0000 Janet 1978877@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, fantastic!

It keeps my lips hydrated, stops the colour from feathering and helps it last until I eat a meal - then I need to touch up my lipstick.</p> <p>I too will be interested to hear Katerina's tips, because her make-up is always picture perfect. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-festive-challenge---shimmering-leather-trousers#post-1978841 Sun, 02 Dec 2018 12:14:36 +0000 Anonymous 1978841@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Raise hand. &nbsp;I also would like to know how to wear red lipsticks so effortlessly. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-festive-challenge---shimmering-leather-trousers#post-1978827 Sun, 02 Dec 2018 10:57:22 +0000 Jessikams 1978827@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the lipstick really adds to the look. Nicely done. Sometime you will have to share your method for applying bright lipstick! I’ve been wearing a bright red for the holidays but I feel it makes my lips look so dry and harsh. But if I add gloss, the lipstick slides right off... it’s a challenge. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-festive-challenge---shimmering-leather-trousers#post-1978765 Sun, 02 Dec 2018 02:44:14 +0000 Jaime 1978765@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Trousers are amazing, along with the rest of the outfit.

All the elements are beautiful on their own, but work so well together, that the whole is so much more than the sum of the individual parts.</p> <p>What wonderful trousers, the shimmer is subtle and so luxe. It is so nice to see leather pants that don't fit like leggings. You trousers are very versatile and you could put most colours with them. I think they would be very pretty with whites and pastels in the spring time, so definitely not something that can only be worn in the winter months. I love items like this that look special, but are actually practical because they can be worn in lots of different ways. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-festive-challenge---shimmering-leather-trousers#post-1978746 Sun, 02 Dec 2018 01:07:21 +0000 Anonymous 1978746@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love those trousers and wish they were in my closet.

A German brand Riani. I bought them in September, a kind of a birthday present to myself.<br /> I wear them with a black peplum jacket by Escada, a large grey/green scarf (also Escada) and high heel platform black booties (Tod’s). I added a green shimmering bag by Ferragamo, a silver glittery brooch and large pearl and crystal glass earrings. To add some colour, red lipstick.</p> <p>What do you guys think of my shimmery trousers and the outfit? Comments and ideas about possible styling are much appreciated. </p>
