STYLISH MONDAY ~ Collaboration & Link Up

HOW WE WEAR RED

February is the month of LOVE – Valentine’s Day and American Heart Month, which is typically associated with wearing red. Are you a fan of wearing red; or are you red wearing challenged? Either way the following are some tips on how to wear it:

Red Jackets

Red Jackets

A red jacket can easily be paired with so many options! Lori paired it with a leopard scarf and jeans for a more casual look. Cindy paired hers with a classic white tee and a gold and red necklace. I paired mine with a graphic tee a black dress pants. A red jacket can easily be dressed up or down and worn year round!

Red Tops:

One red top styled two ways and easily worn in all seasons paired with red striped black pants! Another easy way to add a touch a red!

Lori choose this Bare Shoulder Red Top… She pushed herself out of her typical black and white box! HA!

Adding a touch of red by wearing a red plaid top is an easy way to incorporate red into any look and plaid has been having a major moment!

SHOP RED TOPS:

Red Pants & Red Jeans:

This pink and red combination just might be my favorite for this post! The reason mainly being that it’s way out of my “comfort zone”! I would have never put these two together had I not seen it done on many IG posts and thought I’d give it a try! Voila! I love it! Would you wear pink and red together? I’m also considering pairing these red pants with a purple sweater!

Loft Pink Sweater & New York and Company Red Pants

Same red pants and switched out the top for this Love embroidered tee and the embroidered cardi! The tank under the tee is covered with sequins and sparkles! You could also pair this look with black pants if you don’t want as much red. I happen to love wearing red and think this is a great Valentine’s look. The tee is now too big on me so I gathered the side and used a rubber band to shorten and tighten it. You could also do this look with jeans or leggings…you know I love wearing my faux leather leggings any chance I get!

Find the red that works best for you. Not everyone feels like they can pull off every shade of red. Try maroon, muted red, and bright red.

Red Accents:

Think about adding just a pop of red in either a shoe, scarf, belt, purse or sunglasses! Accessories can make all the differences in elevating a good look to a great look! How fun are these? Would you be bold enough to wear them?

Do you enjoy getting a manicure? Why not consider getting a special mani for the month of February and of course consider red nail polish!

Do you wear lipstick? Why not try a red lippie? There are so many available shades of red you’re bound to find one that goes well with your skin tone! A red lip and red nails can be a fun way to incorporate red during the month of February!
