Color Crush: Red (Part II)


 It's pretty evident these days that my repetitive color crush comes in shades of blue (and it's made a demi-permanent appearance in my life), but I thought I'd take my red color crush one step further, too. The red sweater & pants here both came home with me during last year's Zara sale (side note—does anyone know when this year's starts?), when I was stuck in NYC two extra days and went into the city to buy ONE coat and left with $400+ of merch. Oops? I was shopping with my feelings that day, but hey—everything I picked up has been worn multiple times (like the pants here and the sweater here). These red separates have also become my go-to look for holiday parties this season. I dressed them up with silver pumps and some clear, sparkly bling for a dressier office party, then toned it down with flat black ankle boots and a simple pendant necklace for a casual gathering at a friend's.

  2. Definitely am a huge fan of the monochrome look, I don't know if I can pull it off though!

  3. Thanks for your comment on my blog! I love this look! My best girlfriend in the city wore a red sweater and pants when we attended the Wendy Williams show last year and between her all red ensemble and my royal blue dress, we were literally shown like 20+ times over the course of the show. So fun!

    I love the red J. Crew sweater you linked to. Hoping for a J. Crew giftcard for Christmas so I can buy that. I have been spending WAY too much lately. I am the worst when it comes to sales. Always think I need everything because it is such a good deal;).

  6. You really pulled this off--the sparkly necklace and the metallic heels make it work so well.
