It was clear on the 2016 CMA Awards red carpet that dark, sultry lipstick was the name of the game—a very refreshing departure from awards shows past. Let's give the bubble-gum pinks and fire-engine reds a break, shall we?
Everyone from Kelsea Ballerini (who was looking very fit) to Haley Orrrantia and Carli Manchaca were wearing the trend, inspiring us to try the bold look with our cozy sweaters, leggings and over-the-knee boots. You know, the everyday fall uniform.
Like what you saw on the carpet? We found the best dark shades similar to the ones that stars are wearing on the carpet.
Tae Daye actually took to Instagram to ask fans which lip color she should wear for the CMA Awards.
Looks like she chose a deep black cherry hue that almost looks black. Daring! We love it.
Hayley Orrantia's burnt-red lips have a slight ombre effect with a subtle texture.
If you like her look, go for a lipstick with a velvet texture and shiny finish. Look for a blue-toned red to really bring out your skin tone.
Lady Antebellum's Hillary Scott has got the fall-perfect shade of berry.
A deep berry will get you far this season.
Kudos to Kacey Musgraves for getting real dark with her beauty game.
Thanks to her Instagram feed, we know she was wearing a shimmery Kat Von D Beauty product.
Maddie Marlow took a lighter but still dramatic route to the berry lip.
Honestly, you can wear this hue from the office to the holiday office to the OMG you-don't-remember-what-happened-before morning after.
Kelsea makes a case for liquid lipstick in deep brick red.
With long events such at the CMA Awards, a lip shade that will stay is definitely a must.
What are you waiting for? Give your lips the red carpet treatment!
