The color cranberry is all the rage for fall 2015, and should be one of the colors in both
 
your wardrobe and makeup case. The lovely color is typically displayed in a color palette 
 
consisting of deep red hues and rich burgundies. Cranberry is pigmented and lavish 
 
colors, so don’t be afraid to try it out! If you are not already onboard with the cranberry 
 
color trend keep on reading and you’ discover three reasons why you should be!
 
Summer has come to an unfortunate end, but no worries! The joys of fall have just 
 
begun because it is always fun to switch up the colors in your closet. Cranberry is a color 
 
that looks great on every skin tone, so don’t be afraid to go above and beyond.  
 
A few great staple pieces to have are: sweaters, knit scarves, and a cardigan. Each of 
 
these items can be found at Forever21 at a affordable price. To add to 
 
your look you have the option of pairing the trendy fall color with a neutral color like tan, 
 
grey, blue, or even blue. These colors would look amazing on a simple pair of jeans that 
 
can be found at H&M. That way you will look 
 
stylish while saving a few extra coins in your purse. 
 
Another great option is to implement some of the lovely cranberry tint in your makeup 
 
case too! The fun part about makeup is that you have enough freedom to experiment 
 
with a desirable looks. Here are a lust worthy makeup items that will make you feel 
 
glamorous. 
 
 
The first item is the Monte Carlo soft matte lip stick which is the perfect combination of a 
 
gloss and lipstick. Daring ladies may want to pair this shade with a lip pencil such as 
 
Wine by Elf which will allow your lipstick to last longer and look effortless. 
 
This item is also reasonably priced at $ 3.00 and can purchase here: 
 
 
The Monte Carlo soft matte lipstick is reasonable priced at $ 6.00 can be found here: 
 
 
Another savvy item to have is the Burgundy Times Nine cranberry makeup palette which 
 
is $40, but it is worth it because there are a range of pigmented colors that will help you 
 
create noteworthy eye makeup looks! 
 
The pigmented palette can be purchased here: 
 
 
Palettes-Kits/Eye-Shadow-x-9-Burgundy-Times-Nine. 
 
Make sure you are one of the ladies gracing the streets rocking a splash of cranberry 
 
from head to toe this fall!
