Okay, I went for crimson! Hehe I did end up just going for a light gloss by the end of the night, but it just had to be red!

We haven't got the proper pics yet but here's a couple of the facebook ones

Here's me and my boyfriend getting kind and queen of the cohort

Man alive! You look sensational!! That's red carpet knock-out beauty but oh so elegant, too.

... and the dress isn't bad, either! ;)

Those are awesome reds for the lips and dress you have there. They go very well with your colouring! Lovely!

Aw man, I miss shopping at Debenhams when I was studying in the UK.

Wow what a knock-out! Absolutely gorgeous, I'm so glad you went with a red lipstick - Crimson seems to be the exact same red color as the dress. You look awesome!

Look at you....you are stunning! As others have said the lippie choice was perfect, but I think you could have worn a gunnie sack( not to be confused with gunnie sax-lol) and still been belle of the ball!
