Lilac eyes and red lips as seen on the runway for Dior Spring/Summer 2010 are a blooming inspiration. There’s a lot to love about this soft shade, not as girly girly as pink but with all its prettiness:

• Lilac nails as seen on Nicky Hilton. Most ranges now have a range of purples. There are some gorgeous lilacs and violets in that Miki minis range of nail polishes. Well cheap too.
• Pretty lilac beadwork in the Te Papa collection online.
• Lilac lips?
• Floral inspiration- Lilac pics on Google images
• Uma Thurman’s gorgeous Prada Oscar gown – super subtle lavender/lilac.
