Above: Utterly smitten with Tom Ford Lips & Boys Luca.
My Tom Ford Lips & Boys (reviewed HERE, HERE and HERE)love affair with Luca (reviewed HERE) is is no passing dalliance…this soft, pale coral packs just enough pigmentation to set it apart from my bevy of pinky nudes and the pearly finish makes lips look lush and full. In the images that follow, I pair the exquiste Luca with the warm bronze brown goodness of the Gucci Oxydus eyeshadow for a new take on neutral.
Kindly scroll on for more style details, images, a full product breakdown and the Bottom Line…
Above: A closeup of my “arm candy” du jour…a Swiss Army watch, vintage Cartier Love Bracelet and antique druzy bracelet (received from my parents at Christmas).
Above: A full view of Gucci Oxydus, blended to the browbone.
Bottom Line: I hope you enjoyed this Luca inspired FOTD and style post! I am finally feeling better (thanks for your well wishes!) and having just selected my best of 2014 products, am excited to film my cumulative favorites for the year. I also have a eyeshadow tutorial in the works as well as some new product procurements from Rouge Bunny Rouge and Zelens!
Which Tom Ford Lips & Boys (available at Neiman Marcus and Nordstrom) are YOU in love with?

** Some PRsamples provided for review (the rest purchased by me), however, as always, all of my opinions are expressly and unequivocally my own.
I do love many of the new Tom Ford lippies. I do agree that Luca is a lovely shade. Find myself reaching for it frequently. Of course it helps that I do like coral. Also, love the Gucci, Oxydus, eye shadow. Glad your feeling better. Wishing you and yours an early Happy New Year!
Luca was my one pick from Lips & Boys, although I was sorely tempted by Adriano. In the end I decided Luca would get more wear, looking forward to receiving it. Happy new year!
Your comment made me smile, Clever Girl ; ) Yes, the pants are all sorts of unique and comfy…my mom gave them to me for Christmas! She has good taste, no?
Lovely post, BP. I picked up Beau and Flynn at Neiman's on Dec. 26. Was nearly mobbed at the counter by other Tom Ford fans. But these colors are perfect, the formula is perfect, and they are absolutely worth it. Already contemplating back-ups and maybe a few new colors. You make a strong case for Luca!
Hi BP Happy New year. Luca looks beautiful on you. Pinky nudes AND corals are definitely your thing. Then again u look amazing in any shade. Looking forward to new beauty in 2015 with u! Btw love the by terry densillis concealer. 🙂
