Red reflects the colour of the passion that begins, under the beach umbrella. Red is the colour of this summer, at least as far as fashion is concerned. However, softer colours such as pink and violet are also taken under consideration, all the colours and shades that express the varying intensity of our emotions. Or putting it in beach-lingo, these colours can let the other know what kind of "involvement
" you are looking for. It is basically a transparent but dressed seduction code. And we mean well dressed. From the mini-dress which compliments the legs with a soft touch of frill to the evening gown that slides over the body. Pastel pink with violet is also "in" with the day and eveningwear for women that don't want to renounce their feminility. Accessories also turn red and pink: from large napa leather bags with plaits, roses and handy pockets, to small evening shoulder bags with bows and strass.

SCARLET LIPS

From the heart to the lips. Red colours this summer's makeup, focusing attention on the lips with bright, luscious gloss. Together with the painted geisha-style scarlet, there also sweeter pinks, oranges and fuchsias, making smooching something that needs to be savoured. The sun also spreads its warm tones over the eyes, with pastel lilac and pink or livelier shades such as orange andcoral, and even gold which, in addition to evening, also lights up beach makeup. Blonds and readheads triumph with romantic cuts and only seemingly unruky hairstyles
