While we're more accustomed to seeing Taylor Swift on the red carpet, we were pleasantly surprised to see her looking ever so chic on a stroll around New York yesterday.
Swift teamed her preppy pleated skirt and cable-knit jumper with impeccable makeup and hair. Her cherry red pout brought a pop of colour to her effortlessly stylish ensemble, while her flawless skin and blonde ringlets complimented her statement makeup perfectly.
However, Taylor's outfit wouldn't have been complete without that all important flick of eyeliner. Instead of screaming schoolgirl, those striking black lines add a touch of sophistication to her prim and proper look.
How do you rate Swift's street style? Let us know and take a look below to see more celebrities rocking the red lip trend.
Celebrities in red lipstick
Pixie was the first celebrity off the mark with this season's grunge trend. At the Elle 25th anniversary party Pixie's red lips added a glamorous antidote to the Kurt Cobain-inspired hair.
Nobody rocks red quite like Rihanna. Attending the Westfield shopping centre to switch on the 2010 Christmas lights, the singer opted for a plum-toned red shade with a slight shimmer to complement her skin tone and match her signature scarlet locks.
Never one to miss a hot trend, Fearne Cotton rocks the look, plumping for a bright orange-toned statement red teamed with dramatic black eyeliner. But be warned, warm tones can draw attention to less than white teeth.
At the 9th annual Elton John AIDS Foundation benefit in New York Christina Ricci went for classic glamour with a matte red pout and super-long lashes. For a velvet finish like this, blot lips with a tissue.
Gemma makes her pillar-box red pout the focal point of her look by teaming with gleaming nearly-nude makeup and a simple line of black kohl.
The perfect complement to her platinum blonde locks, Gwen Stefani never goes anywhere without her red lipstick. Up close this look is a bit too heavy for our tastes though.
Even on the red carpet, fresh-faced Sienna usually opts for minimal makeup. But since the Matthew Williamson spring/summer show the star has become a re lipstick addict.
Vintage Vixen, Dita Von Teese, has had women the country over dashing to their makeup counter to invest in a red lipstick in an attempt to emulate her classic retro look. To recreate the look, team with 40s waves, winged eyeliner and lashings of gloss.
