How to Wear Red This Season

Hello! Happy Blogmas day 3! So, if there i
s one colour that just screams Christmas it is for sure the colour red. It also just so happens to the colour of the season (or year I might add). So here you have it; how to wear red this season.

To achieve the full effect of the trend to catwalk standards, it's not just your coat, just your trousers, or just your shoes. It's all or nothing, and according to many designers this season it has to be head to toe.  Although it may be a bold look, going red all over is completely on-trend and incredibly stylish. So, if there was ever a time to rock a pair of red pants with a red blazer, red top, and red shoes, it is now. While there are numerous ways that you can wear the look, consider opting for a bottom and jacket in matching shades. Then, mix things up with a top that’s either lighter, darker or patterned.

This look can often be a bit too much on a daily basis so I'm tending to choose red as my accent colour. You don’t shy away from this trend just because you prefer a more minimal colour palette. The beauty of this season’s hottest trend being a colour is that it’s so versatile and can be tailored to suit anyone. So, if you don’t quite feel like rocking a red outfit, why not opt for red accessories instead? Thanks to their bold hue, these fiery accessories can make a statement without appearing too intense. It's easy enough to spice up a boring jumper and jeans combo with a red over the shoulder hand bag and a pair of red loafers. I adore how an outfit so simple can be transformed with a little accessorising!

The best thing about a bold colour like red is that it can turn any garment into a statement piece. It is perfect for tops and can make simple styles stand out, and unique designs really shine. So, whether you’re rocking a pair of jeans with a red T-shirt or a pair of velvet trousers with a red ruffle top, you’re guaranteed to look trendy and stylish. Just remember to make the most of your red top by forgoing a jacket and avoiding any other bold hues.

When it comes to rocking this trend in cold weather, there’s no better way than with a red coat or a jacket. The chic outfit addition will instantly turn up the drama and style of your look for an impressive ensemble. Whether you choose a trench coat, faux fur jacket, blazer, or leather jacket, make sure it's bold and eye-catching. Also, remember to keep the rest of your look minimal and subdued. Your favourite black pants, a turtleneck, and a pair of your favourite trainers will do the trick nicely.

 Still not quite ready to go red all over? Why not focus on your legs instead? Opting for a pair of red trousers or a red skirt can still create statement style without feeling over the top. To keep the look balanced, just remember to make your legs the focus of your outfit. As such, completing your look with basic colours and classic designs is an excellent option. Something as simple as a red midi skirt with a white T-shirt, and a denim jacket can look so so chic all because of the versatile colour red.
