Beauty Notebook: Meeting Marsala
When Pantone first announced Marsala as 2015’s Shade of the Year, we knew that the colour of wine is exactly what you need to get your party on! The beauty department isn’t complaining because we’ve managed to find a middle ground between dull brick reds and over-powering oxbloods.
Verve scouts beauty shelves to give you a complete round-up of products from your favourite brands. Plus, a fashion lesson to keep you looking fashionable and Marsala-ready!

Style guide: Corral your iridescent whites and reinvent your classics with this season’s streamlined silhouettes, and take the pristine colour to its feisty side. Channelise the suaveness of an all-white look in a form-fitting high-collared jacket and a pair of loose gossamer pants. Pair it with a leather tote or a peekaboo bag and a pair of lace-up shoes, both in dark hues for a stark contrast that will add more power to your look. For a little extra charm, top it up with white-pearl baubles.

Style guide: Style your evening look with a heavy dose of Marsala in a tone-on-tone outfit and pump up the glamour.

Club your outfit with a pair of animal-print shoes, and balance it out with a classic black leather handbag. With Marsala’s ability to complement neutrals, you can now exude the richness of the red wine from morning to evening.
