Pucker up! Summer is the season of the pink pout! Rihanna, Olivia Wilde, Alexis Bledel, and top models around the world have embraced pink lips as their go-to color for nights out on the town, and so should you.

Pink is a feminine and versatile color. Playing around with bold shades of pink lips is a great way to spice up that little black dress of yours.

Whatever shade you choose, it is clear that pink lips are imperative for summer 2009!
