How to make a Sabrina Carpenter-inspired "lipstick kisses" top

The Short n' Sweet Tour is *finally* here and we are beyond obsessed with its ultra-feminine retro vibes. Just take a look at the stage setup (it's giving Malibu Barbie Dreamhouse!) which is totally fit for our fave sassy songstress. Not to mention Sabrina's tour attire: The frilly bedazzled nighties and platforms with heart shaped cutouts are the whimsical and flirty fash trends we never knew we needed. 

While it's probably super tempting to disregard comfort for ruffled nighties and chunky platforms for your concert, you can still tap into your inner-Sabrina Carpenter without sacrificing practicality or style. Follow this "short 'n' sweet" DIY for the perfect "lipstick kisses" top and you'll be emulating Sabrina's off-duty pop princess vibe in no time!

What you'll need

First things first: You'll need to snag a basic white tank or tee. To match Sabrina's look, try a baby tee or a cropped tank! FYI, you can also opt for an oversized plain white tee or full length tank if that's more your vibe.

Then, you'll need a lipstick, lipgloss or lip tint in a dark pink or medium pink shade. 

Once you've got those two crucial pieces, it's time to make your mark!

Directions

1. Lay your white top of choice on a flat surface (your kitchen table or bedroom floor should do). Slide an old magazine or piece of cardboard inside the shirt, between the front and back, to avoid any of your lippie bleeding through.

2. Apply your medium or dark pink lip product of your choosing to your lips.

3. OK. stay with us: The next step is to start planting kisses on your white top. You don't have to follow a set pattern so start planting 'em anywhere you'd like!

4. Leave the top laying out on a flat surface for 30 minutes to an hour to let the lip stains settle. 

5. Keep in a safe and dry space until it's time to wear!

Pro tips incoming...

If you choose a lipgloss or lip tint instead of a lipstick, we highly suggest using a super pigmented one so your kiss will leave quite an impression. 

For an ultra-DIY look, we suggest mixing and matching light, medium and dark pink lip products. Having mismatched lipstick kisses in various shades of pink will be sure to make your top one of a kind!

How to wear your adorable new top? Pair it with a sequined mini and tights or your fave pair of jeans for a look that'll be sure to keep you in every fashionista's "good graces" all night long. Now, you're all set to show Sab extra love at your show!
