Everyone here said that my previous outfit was too fourth of july, so I decided to then find a skirt for it and then I found this dress and fell in love with it. But the thing is, what kind of makeup and hairstyle would suit this dress? Would a red lipstick be too much or just okay? Pleaase help me!! ps, I'm going to wear a santa hat with it so I can't really wear my hair up.

The dress is darling. I say go for the red lipstick, girl! It's the holidays! You're allowed to be a little more glam than usual! But I agree with Lorna about the winged eyeliner and loose curls.

If you want to do a red lip with a red dress I don't think it would look bad. Here's a image that might help you imagine a red dress and lip.

A different idea, I think this would look good with that dress.

Hello Sophia, I hope I can help you on your dilema today!
I personally like to have dramatic make up, whether its the lips or the eyes I just feel more confident in dramatic make up. I don't believe there is a complete no no to wearing a red lipstick and red dress. However, I do believe you MUST get the right lipstick shade which matches or compliments the undertones (blue, orange, brown etc.) in your dress. I can not tell you how important this is, as I've once seen a girl go to her formal in a blue based dress, and wear a bright orange based lipstick. it was the talk of the school for quite some time. However, back to the story, if you find that matching lipstick that WILL compliment the dress than go with a wing eyeliner look. it's always a nice look to go for. Once you have found that matching lipstick, you could go with a winged eyeliner look.

Nevertheless, If you feel as if you are not entirely confident with a red lipstick and red dress look, you can always opt for something more 'natural' with the use of brown/taupe smokey eye, with winged eyeliner. The only trouble with this I find is you may look a little greyish in colour. To counteract this, just apply a rosey blush on your cheeks.
As for your hair, well there's countless options, however as it's christmas perhaps some curls? I find curls are always nice in the festive season.
Have a lovely christmas Sophia and good luck for your christmas outfit!
