All-Over Red

For a look that says power and romance all in the same breath, opt for head-turning, head-to-toe red. Statement makers in the fashion world can’t get enough of the bold tint and are piling it on – shoes and sunnies included. To translate it for everyday, wear a ruby tee over matching jeans, or a cardinal blazer and trouser set. Accessories should be simple and minimal.

All-Over Pink

It’s no secret that pink is having a moment. The hopeful shade is trending everywhere, from web design to restaurant menus. (Just open Instagram for proof.) It’s no surprise that people are wearing the color top to bottom. But it’s not limited to just pretty pastel – poppy watermelon and coral tones also feel fresh and new. Try a blush wool coat, matching pointed-toe strappy flats, and a printed mini bag for an outfit that’s ladylike, luxe, and so right now.

Mixing Red & Pink

While choosing just one of these shades can pack a punch, mixing the two is becoming de rigueur for the street-style crew. It’s a fashion myth that red and pink will clash, and one we’re happy to dispel. Just match up the undertones of separate pieces (warm with warm, cool with cool) to ensure everything goes. Or go for the no-brainer approach and rock a dress that incorporates both hues with confidence.
