This has got to be one of my all time favorite color combinations. Burgundy & red. So bold, so delicious and just so pretty.
I fell in love with this combo many many, years ago on a trip to Milan. I walked into a Prada store and there it was, hitting me smack dab in the face. I was smitten at first sight. I purchased a pair of red & burgundy kitten heel slingbacks that day about 10 years ago and I still wear them to this day.
I recreate this combo all the time in all different ways. My nails...I'll wear both colors at the same time. Apparel...burgundy skirt, red shirt. Wine clutch, red pumps. I've done it all. Especially this time of year. There's something about fall that makes me want to mix these bold, lush colors together.
Think I know what I'll be wearing today :) How bout you all? Are you loving this combo as much as I am?
Enjoy the day, lovelies!
xoxo

GORGEOUS! Will try that combo, it makes me feel warm and splendid! Happy thursday to you!
I dont think I have ever tried it, very much liking it, thanks for the intro Dawn, will have to give it a go!
I would never think to combine these to colors but it is striking. Hmmm... I don't own a lot of red maybe I need to change that. Now that song Red Red Wine is stuck in my head! xo

I don't own any Burgundy! Makes me sad now ... LOVEE this combination :)

Cool, I would have never thought of this but I love it!
Such gorgeous colors - I'm actually wearing them today!
I need to invest in some burgundy! Such a lovely combo for fall!
Love this! I had red on my nails and burgundy on my toes, does that count?
Funny, I've been humming that red red wine song in my head for days! Never thought of mixing those colours together. I bet you looked fabulous today ;-)
Just got back from the Park: A glass of rosé, a book and I in the most incredible autumn weather ever. I'm in heaven.
Love these two colors together!
I want to live in that last outfit!

I'm not a huge burgundy lover but perhaps I'm going to start thinking of it as wine and mixing it with red because holy moley...it's gorgeous together!! I seriously would never have thought of the two but I'm in love!!
Oh yes! Love this combo and I love how it looks on my skin. Beautiful photos!
I do it with the nails, but not with clothes... new horizons here I come!

At first glance I kind of didn't like it, but then it grew on me and now I think I like it a lot (my mind works in the weirdest ways..!)

Oh girl... I adore the purple and red combo! :) Love your little nail idea lady, I might steal that for tomorrows mani/pedi run!

Hello! Thank you for visit my blog, I hope you come back often.
I also like much of the collection of Versace this season!
Wow, it is a stunning combination! It's one of those combinations I haven't really thought of, but now want to try!
I hope you have fun at the wedding this weekend! xo
It's a fabulous combo for fall. I must admit that I don't have this combo "currently" in my closet. It's a must add to any gal's fall wardrobe.
Gorgeous reds!
