It's a little late to tell you about my new resolutions, goals, and traditions to be carried out for the year of 2013, buuuttt....I'm gonna let you in on one of my new favorites for this year. Red Lip Friday. Yes, you heard me, it has officially been dubbed Red Lip Friday.
You may wonder what and why Red Lip Friday is a thing. Well, one day I was pondering about all the crazy things we do up at our home turf Beaver Mountain and I thought to myself, we need something to set us apart from the rest of the skiers. Something new. Something bold. Thus the red lipstick idea was born.
The red lips are to be worn every Friday, and every Friday is a day to be skied at the infamous Beaver Mountain. Before we take off to ski, we apply the ever moisturizing Jiggy Stick , following with the rich color red lipstick named "Red Zin" Sometime be sure to ask us the story of trying on EVERY single tint of red in the makeup store Ulta. We ended the night looking like clowns...
As we jump in line to aboard the ski lift, the lifties appropriately gives us a hard time about our freshly applied lipstick. Asking if "they could have some?" Nice try lifties...no kisses for you!
We have established a name for ourselves on the mountain known as the "Lipstick Girls" It's got a nice ring to it...
Be it snowing, blowing, shining, or bitterly cold we proudly wear our red lipstick every Friday, skiing to our hearts content.
"Pour yourself a drink, put on some lipstick, and pull yourself together."
-Liz Taylor
These ski days give me time to enjoy the beautiful nature and literally pull myself together after a long week of work and school.
(and by pouring a drink I mean pouring myself a nice Diet Coke)
I can't help but think that a certain red head would love this new Red Lip Friday tradition of daring the new red lip look while skiing and enjoying every second of it.
At the end of the day the saying runs through my mind, "Classy, Sassy, and a little Smart-assy." You could say we are trying to follow through with that...What is it that you love about the New Year?
