CONTEXT
I've been wearing red from head-to-toe since I was a toddler! Orange-y red is one of my best colours.
Tomato red in my preferred red. I dabble in Fire Engine and Burgundy too. I love to mix up the solids! Looks harmonious, strong, graphic, and pretty to my eye.
I wear Red-Out throughout the year. Not just at Christmas.
I have EVERYTHING in red :)
Red pants are signature to my style, and I have several pairs. I'm showing you one pair.
TONAL MIX
I have red boots and belt, and burgundy bag and belt - but do not prefer those additions in these outfits. I prefer the addition of the cream, light blue, and taupe. It also allows the eye to rest amidst the reds, somehow. Adds the punchy and modern crispness I seek in my outfits. I am energized!
SPECS and DOGGIES
As a specs wearer, I can add red specs to my tonal looks. Sam and Jo are wearing red collars to match me today. Sam is snoozing, so that's Jo in the pics :)
OUTFIT MIX
The Base of Three looks:
- The same red pants, burgundy t-neck, cream boots, and cream belt.
- Red coat, red jacket, burgundy jacket
- Red specs, light blue specs
- Cream bag, light blue bag, red bag, taupe bag.
I'm wearing #7 today. Only just above freezing in Seattle. Need a warm coat.
Many of the items here are old, and very old. A few items are new this year.
Thanks for looking! xo
