Afternoon beauty fix: Replicate Nina Ricci’s ultra-feminine Fall ’11 lips

I’m currently obsessed with the lips from Nina Ricci’s Fall 2011 show. How can I replicate the ultra-feminine look?
Makeup pro Pat McGrath created lips that looked like velveteen tulip petals by painting them with opaque and creamy sherbet shades of lipstick. We recommend trying Nars’ Velvet Matte Lip Pencil in “Bolero” ($30 at NARS counters and narscosmetics.com)– it’s peachy-pink, matte and pretty close to perfect.
