What color lip for this outfit?

[mila]

Navy top, wine colored pants, and leopard flats?

Hair- black, skin tone is Olive with yellow undertones.

[secretlyevil]

Hmmm...

Simple eye/wine (berry) lipstick

OR

Bold/Smokey eyes and nude lipstick

[calico]

I think a berry lip would look great!

[Pippin]

Yeah I’d be feeling a wine or berry.

[mila]

I was also thinking berry/wine lip, but I didn't want it to clash with the wine bottoms. Any lipstick recs?

Haha I was thinking it’d be cool to match the pants. Maybelline has some great berries in different finishes.

I like Maybelline's creamy formula, but they move around too much on my lips

Boo. How about a Nars lip crayon? Dirty Mind looks nice. Cruella stays forever on me when I wear it but it’s a red.

Good call, I love NARS and their lip crayons. Also- a fellow Cruella fan, but you're right- it is more red than a wine.

Urban Decay has several lovely wine and/or berry lipsticks in all kinds of finishes.

Maybe Nars Hyde Park lip crayon? It's a bit a deeper berry, not a wine color. I think there's enough space between your lips and the pants that you don't have to match them completely. Nars Audacious in Audrey might be an interesting choice too.

I have an outfit similar to your description (it's a skirt instead of pants) and I wear UD Jilted. It's a fuscia berry color with a blue shift/shimmer to it. I get a ton of compliments and makes my outfit seem more modern, rather than matchy-matchy lip color to outfit.

ETA: Oh, wait, that might not work if you have yellow undertones. I am neutral, leaning pink. Alternatively I recommend a sheer berry, almost like a 'your lips only berry colored' look. I don't know if UD has a sheer lipstick that would fit the bill. A lip gloss could work too.

Thanks so much for everyone chiming in and recommending some colors. I tend to lean towards deeper lip colors but likely can't wear them for work, so a sheer berry/wine lip would be best for work. I've written all the recs here, and will head to Sephora next week!

Clinique Black Honey would also work.
