I was conflicted on whether to title this post, "Berry Lips," or "Mid-Summer Slump."  When this summer started, I expected to be blogging almost everyday because I wouldn't have school to distract.  Instead, it turns out, it was school that had inspired me to "dress up" on most days.  So far this summer, it's been pretty relaxing; it's my last summer before I start university and get a job, so I've actually really enjoyed doing, in a sense, nothing.  That just makes it all the more difficult to be inspired to put together new and interesting outfits.  However, next month I actually have some interesting trips planned, so stay tuned to see where I travel to (also, follow me on instagram for live updates @rockintherockiesstyle).

I recently read something somewhere that a berry lip is great for summer, which I found interesting because I had always considered it a winter color.  I decided I would try it out with an outfit that obviously screamed summer; for me, that's my camel skirt (my current favorite skirt) and light, polka dot, crop top.  Initially, I was afraid it was a bit too dark, but after looking at it in different lights, I felt that this berry shade actually looked beautiful with the white and camel.
