There's something very feminine about the side parting. It softens the contours of the face, and can also create an element of girlishness, as seen on the Dolce & Gabbana catwalk this year. Donna Karan takes this style up a notch, by pairing the soft parting with bold red lips. She's opted for a wide spectrum of reds, from a bold ruby, to a crushed berry.
It's important to note that whilst she's kept the lips bold, the rest of the makeup remains neutral, which is how you'd want to wear this style at home. Matching lips and eyes may spell drama, but drag queen is word you're looking to avoid at all costs. Great wearable reds can be found at Clinique, who are introducing a Party Red collection later this year. It will offer six different shades of liostciks, ranging front he matte to the glossy, so everyone can find their perfect red.
