Crushing on Red

Whoever made up the rule that red should worn only during the holiday season hasn’t a clue of what’s happening on the runways and in the hotest boutiques these days. December is in full swing blazing full throttle into 2012, but red is here to stay. Santa or no Santa. Red is reserved for those with no fear- bold  fashionistas that want to make a statement in the fashion department without looking back. So this is an ode to RED. It is a glittery holiday giveaway. Red is daring. Red is sexy. Red is sophisticated. Any of the said definition is true. Last night on my way to a holiday event, I wore a L’Agence sheer black blouse paired with red J Brand leather jeans, Dsquared2 leather jacket and suede booties. So spirited! (Although not sure how to apply the red lipstick without it bleeding) And I am carrying the Celine luggage tote, my new obsession, that I am pining for this season.

Moveover spring. Just so you are well-aware, pre-fall is a-showing in designers studios and what is the color du jour? Red. I saw red at Michael Kors, Chanel, Oscar de la Renta, Rachel Roy and there’s probably more where that came from. Oh and Pantone declared Tangerine Tango the IT color of the season.. not too far off the red spectrum. See some hot fiery looks below.

  1. I don’t think I have a single red thing in my wardrobe…honestly! But it looks pretty and bold…may try. (I did buy a red lipstick that I love but am too afraid to wear.)
