Why we should all start to wear red

Everybody who is interested in fashion or works in the industry knows that red ist THE colour of the season. At first, I noticed that my closet had not enough red to offer. So I started to buy pieces in the colour of love and let me tell you, I was sceptical. For someone who barely wears any colour on a day to day basis, a bright red can be a huge step. So what is it, that makes red so interesting?

When you look up the meaning of the colour red you will find out that it is an energizing colour, which motivates to take action. It signifies a pioneer spirit and leadership qualities and it can give confidence to people who are shy or anxious. So it is perfect for women who want to be perceived as fierce and strong.
When you first start wearing red, it definitely feels weird, because your outfit will be recognized way more. Red just simply draws the attention. You have to get used to that, especially when you wear head-to-toe red.

As you can see on Hailey Baldwin (above), you do not have to wear sexy clothes that are red. Of course, red leather is the epitome of hotness, but the colour is passionate enough, that you can easily wear a red hoodie or even a full on jogging suit and will still look amazing. Combined with heels is just the right amount of sexiness and does not look like you are trying to hard. But just in case you love to be extra, go for the red leather !

When you are just not ready yet to wear an all-red outfit, invest in some red statement pieces that you can combine with almost everything. It can be a red jacket or coat, red shoes, or red jeans. It is about combining it with casual, less extravagant pieces. And make sure to keep it simple. Don't wear to many Colors. Of course you can, but the focus should still be on the red piece.

shades of red


At the moment it is all about the bright red, also known as cherry red. But as you can see by the colour palette above there are many shades of red and therefore so many different options. You do not need to go for cherry red. Wine red is a beautiful Colour in fall. It is not as expressive but still has a nice undertone. So just have fun with it and try out new shades of red. Don't be afraid to bring some colour in you closet and the most important thing be confident about wearing it!

Have a nice week!
