Red is everywhere this season. From runways to Instagram feeds, the color has made its entry into everyone’s wardrobes. It is indeed the color of the season.
Cheerful and bold, red has an inherent spark of energy. A splash of cherry red can instantly brighten a gloomy day. An all-red look? It is sheer confidence.
This season is all about having fun with the color red. But you need to try it in different shades and styles. Red is also very versatile. You can carry it to the office, on a weekend coffee run, or for a night out with your partner.
But how do you style women’s red clothes? Read on to know.
Everyday touches
Not everyone may be willing to don a full red outfit. But that’s okay. Pairing an outfit with a red handbag or a scarf can also suffice.
For instance:
Carrying a red mini bag with denim and a trench will give a more polished look.
Kendall Jenner was spotted adorning one. Her look makes it apparent that a worthy accent can make a huge difference.
Shoes, too, can have a significant impact. Sneakers, flats, or heels, with a hint of red, can elevate. It is more like dipping your toe into the trend.
Work looks
Women’s red clothes in the office? Why not? Crimson blazers over black trousers will make you look sharp yet subtle. You can also pair red trousers with a soft, camel-colored sweater to get a modern yet professional look.
Want a more subtle look? A bright cherry turtleneck will add the desired pop under a navy suit. Remember, it is all about balance.
Street style moments
During fashion week, you will find abundant street style ideas. One look that will not fail you is a red crewneck with an oversized jacket. Team it with knee-high boots. Another one? Go for a sequined red skirt dressed down with a chambray shirt and loafers.
Party nights
Everyone knows about a little black dress, but your little red dress can truly give you the moment. Much like the black options, a bold red dress will be your shortcut to glam.
Remember Kylie Jenner’s take on the LRD? A short cherry dress with a small bag and matching heels. You can also carry this look.
Consider elevating the look with sleek hair and gold hoops. Complete it with a red lipstick if you want to keep it bold. It will add glamour without you having to try too hard.
Evening glam
Want to pull off red for Valentine’s dinners, weddings, or galas? Go with the deeper red shades.
Satin, sequins, and velvet are some fabrics in which a red outfit will undoubtedly have a luxe effect. Remember the red gown finished with a velvet bow worn by Rachel Brosnahan at the Golden Globes? When replicating a similar look, keep your accessories to a minimum. Statement earrings, a clutch, and metallic heels will suffice.
Casual look
Women’s red clothes are not only for the evening. Carry a simple red mini with sneakers and a denim jacket, and you have the perfect weekend look.
On colder days, pair it with boots and a chunky cardigan. Red keeps the look fun, even without trying too hard.
Know your shade of red
There are various shades of red.
* For fair skin, the cooler reds like cherry will work well
* For olive or medium-complexioned skin tones, go with tomato or scarlet
* For deeper-toned skin, go with burgundy or bright shades
Testing a few shades is a must. It will help you know a shade that makes your face glow.
