The Allure of Red

Whether looking at the runways, social media or just all around, it’s hard to miss all the hints of fiery red this season. And we must admit, we are just a little obsessed. 

Though you can never go wrong with the classic hues of mossy green, navy and browns of the fall, there’s just something so special about bright cherry red. It's bold, classy and simply perfect. 

However, here at The Edge, we know this color can be a little daunting to add to your wardrobe. For many people, a color like this is far out of their comfort zone. To ease all fears, we’ve created a guide to help you find your love for red.

If you’ve been looking just to dabble in the color, starting with footwear may be best for you. We’ve been loving the Adidas Gazelle Sneaker in the Red/Gold colorway for the perfect pop of color. Or, if you have also hopped on the ballet flat trend this season, these fire-red Jack Rogers flats might just be calling your name. For something really subtle, the Matches Fashion Mary Janes with red piping are the most dainty fashion statement.

If you are looking for something bigger and bolder, there are a few tops we just adore. Here at The Edge, we are swooning over the Sezane Ariel Jumper. The round neckline and twisted knit cuffs make this the perfect classy sweater for class or a dinner out on a chilly evening. For more of a statement piece, we can’t take our eyes off the Veronica Beard Leal Quilted Reversible Jacket. The stitching and white lining make this the most beautiful statement jacket for your fall outings.

Here’s the perfect thing about red: it really goes with anything. These sweaters will easily pair with your favorite denim or simple white pants. If you really want to tie it all together, however, we have a few favorite red accessories.

We all know and love our Emi Jay clips, and this Deep Cherry Red “Big Effing Clip” is the perfect piece to bring it all together. A half-up-half-down with your new Sezane sweater would be the perfect look in the color of the season. Or, in another statement, the Staud Tommy Bag in Scarlet/White is bound to turn heads.

Whether you’re all red this season or looking for hints of it, there’s a piece for everyone and any occasion. We hope this inspired you to put together a vision you adore. Tag us in your red this season @theedgemag!
