A Gloss of Goth

Dark lips are popping up everywhere as the It-look for autumn and I can't wait to get my hands on a shade that complements my semi-bronzed-from-summer, yet still-fair skin.

The vamped-out look was all the rage at this year's Met Ball where stars like Camilla Belle, Kate Bosworth and Lana Del Rey pouted in shades of crimson, plum and burgundy.

Emily Schuman of Cupcakes and Cashmere debuted her take on the trend earlier this week, taking the bold look from the runway to everyday and totally nailing it.

Another one of my favorite blogs, The Beauty Department, provided this guide to the va-va-vamp look based on hair color and complexion. Looks like it's dark plum for me!

Already in love with the deep, plummy-brown of Kat Von D's Homegirl. To steal the other girls' looks, check out:
