Red, Red Wine

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
